directors should take a stand against this imdb decision to close boards


What about the people who make movies ? Scriptwriters and directors. Surely they must be interested in having people talk about their movies, a lot of directors pour their heart into making movies, having people talk about their work surely must be important to them.

Why else would they make movies if it´s not to get people to think about, analyze and discuss the movie with fellow moviegoers.
Scriptwriters and directors cannot be happy with this decision, not if they care about the movies they make !
We need a Movie Director to take a stand against this imdb decision.

Yeah, I'm sure filmmakers love to read how everybody thinks they are overrated hacks who make crap film after crap film.

In an ideal world, it would be great to have insightful discussions about filmmakers and their work but this sadly isn't the place (anymore)

Well, directors could have chimed in from time to time.
