i miss the IMDb forums

it seems that when a community/site like IMDb dies down and the left-overs migrate to a barren successor site like moviechat with little to no moderation, the most vocal people end up being fragile alt-righties crying about skin color or gender almost every post. they sit around brigading the audience score hoping that Disney cares about how they used to queue in line in their sundown towns waiting to watch the original trilogy, and how they will only support white right-wing media, but these shows are setting records and the highest grossing films are the sequels. so the only remaining thing left to do is stew in bitterness and try to ruin it for others manchild-style

I thought so too, until someone showed me a snapshot of what used to be, and it was not really much better.

What you are feeling is nostalgia.

And to think of it what you are unloading here is kind of one of those rants as well, heavy on politics and personal attacks, light on movie discussion.

that would be like trying to eat a meal on the floor of a gas station bathroom, might as well just talk to the fascists directly

i realized your other post on this show has phrases like "(yes, both are she)" which betrays your whole "i thought so too" cover story. you also did not understand why Indara didn't just kill Mae, assuming its just Disney being ridiculous, probably because you did not even follow the story, you were simply just ready to disqualify it

at the end of the day IMDb had a ton more discussion on the actual merits of the arts, now its just a bunch of Trump supporters moaning about how the world left them behind

I wish your people leave politics out of this place, at least not in movie discussions, but you seem not going to do that.

This is a place for people to complain about movies and TV shows, if you want to see praises go watch commercials or read variety articles.

Anyway, I am going to put you on ignore list, because you are obviously here for politics, paid or unpaid.
