No threads saved from movies that haven't been released yet?
I just checked some movie boards and noticed that movies that haven't been released yet don't got their boards archived. Does anybody know why?
shareBecause this website was scraped prior to Feb 20th, the day when IMDb closed their message boards.
shareOf course, but these movies (for example Avengers: Infinity War, GOTG 2, Annihilation...) had boards on IMDB since many months or even years, there were many threads. Now they are empty, except of the MovieChat postings.
shareOh right. Yeah, I noticed that too. I did see the rumor that when things were scraped, it only saved the top most movies/tv series boards. I could not come to terms that not everything could be scraped at once, but I did find that some of the message boards I had commented on, were blank.
Well, I guess one good thing is we can start anew. I always hated going back to a board and seeing that there were so many unanswered threads that could have been answered or someone would make a thread, but then the conversation would get so off topic that it was basically people name calling each other instead of discussing the movie.
