Movies/Cinema Forum

Post by Franz Schubert »

I think it's time for a designated place to discuss movies/directors/actors and all things cinema-related. They tend to clutter up GD, and also having their own forum would reduce the wasteland-digression. So, who's with me?

I say nay. What else is GD for other than to talk about anything with in reason. There aren't that many movie threads, they only pop up every few months so there wouldn't be much in the new forum, nor would there be anything left to talk about in GD if people keep spliting off a subject to it's own forum.

and maybe separate Army talk, Games talk and Political talk forums so we can completely delete the General Discussion.

yeah, imagine having to read general discussions in the general discussion forum. That'd be like fighting in the war room or something.

This is silly. General things go in the general discussion board.
How appropriate. You fight like a cow.

Personally I'd like it, since I can talk about movies to no end, but judging by the initial feedback it probably wouldn't fly. So can it.
suppose you're thinking about a plate of shrimp. suddenly somebody will say like 'plate' or 'shrimp' or 'plate of shrimp', out of the blue, no explanation.

goto PAmedia.com for post-apoc movies.
otherwise, just post it in GD, like every other "general" thing that needs to be "discussed"

Oh for fucks sake. Can we stop with the special forums please? We have a forum called GENERAL DISCUSSION. It is for GENERAL DISCUSSION which means anything GENERAL as in VARIOUS TOPICS. If you want to talk about your latest porno flick in there YOU ARE FREE TO DO SO.

Here's my suggestion: Can we disallow Frank access to the Trash Can?

As atoga said (LOL I get support from unlikely people sometimes) if there were a movie forum, the discussion on it would be much more expanded than it is when it is simply in GD.

And as to all the personal flames and attacks:

What makes you think that? After all it's would just be the same people posting as in GD.

But then they'd feel free or something. Because they won't be worried about the anti-cinemites.

Now that's the first decent suggestion I've seen here in a loooong time!
Kashluk

Or "burn the American flag" - forum. At least it would be popular.

I voted yay, just for spite.

But I have to agree with the "nay" sentiment. Speaking from experience, forums reserved specifically for one corner of the pop-culture world usually don't fare very well - not many people post in them, interest is lost, etc. Besides, more people are likely to see your thread if you put it in GD.

So I retract my vote. Er, hypothetically.
