Why is there links to imdb here on moviechat?


On every movie and actor there is a link to imdb, why support those jerkoffs?

reply

They're not,mate...๐Ÿ˜‰

reply

they are indirectly

reply

I checked the tomb raider thread and still don't see the connection...

reply

there is a 'view on imdb' link on every movie/tv thread - are you not aware of this ???

reply

I use a smartphone...an android one,but no...it doesn't show...maybe is only for pc version.

reply

thanks for clarifying

reply

exactly...


What is the connection between this site and imdb, think i would like to know

reply

This site would not exist without imdb. Still tons of messages here imported from their boards, and their board structure. Gotta remember its roots.

I think he's the only one I know.
Seems he was everywhere back in day.

I like having the link. I agree Tom8 about the jerkoff comment, but I like being able to see the cast or a filmography if I look someone or something up. It would be nice if this site had those things, but that might be a little much to ask for. I guess we're lucky to have this forum.

reply

Indeed,mate...maybe i didn't find many raiders,but i'm glad i'm here...stick a while,dponzi...you may like it๐Ÿ˜‰

reply

Oh, I plan on sticking around. This is pretty nice here. Its way better than any of the other sites that popped up after IMDB ditched their forum.

reply

I'm a member of other sites too,dponzi....but here i like the most๐Ÿ˜‰

reply

I also see the links, but I'm OK with it as I still use IMDB. I'm not cutting off my nose to spite my face! Granted, IMDB gave us the shaft, but it's over and done. I myself still find the site useful for the detailed information given about film and tv.

I don't look at it as supporting anyone. It's a convenient way to check out any additional info that isn't here. Now we have the best of both worlds.
I like reading reviews from other people. I like to look up actors and their biography's and their list of credits.

reply

still the best tv/movie resource around

reply

Agreed! I remember people saying the were signing off after the message boards shut down. I never did. I kept my account.

reply

I signed off for a short period and went back as there really are no alternatives.

The proper question would be "Why are there links to imdb here on moviechat."
