IMDb, please don't shut down your message boards!
I love them.
shareI'm going to have so many unanswered questions now! :(
shareNot if I can have anything to do with it! I loved reading the IMDb boards after watching a movie, so I decided to create film.chat as a place where movie lovers could gather to chat and have fun! Please check us out at http://film.chat if you're interested in a new community. We'll be giving away movie tickets every month and adding features as often as we can. :)
shareSucks big time. I was shocked when I saw the "friendly reminder".
shareI was shocked too, which is why I decided to create film.chat so that we could all gather and continue to enjoy the community. Please check us out at http://film.chat if you're interested in joining. We'll be giving away free movie tickets every month and adding some cool features whenever we can. :)
shareIf anybody is interested in another movie database with dedicated boards for every individual title and person, there is a website called TMDB (https://www.themoviedb.org/talk) that recently added message boards for every specific movie and person (example: https://www.themoviedb.org/movie/149871-kaguyahime-no-monogatari/discuss You have to click on the little word bubble icon on the top left of the movie's page). A bunch of people from IMDb have already gathered at their general boards and and are discussing ways to increase activity and serve as an alternative to IMDb.
I encourage everyone to take a look at this site. I think it looks very promising. It's the only other site I know of with message boards for every movie, actor, director, etc.
I also encourage everyone to spread the word about this site, as it seems most people don't know about it.
