Are there other areas on the web to discuss this film? (Please don't say reddit.)

Very sad.

I feel like my freedom of speech is being snatched and the timing is very odd.

It's not freedom of speech. IMDb is a corporate entity and we get to use their non-public resources as long as it makes them money. We can still talk about this film all we want, just not on their web site.

Apparently, the bean counters over there think that it no longer is profitable. It doesn't COST anything significant either, I hear, but that's not what shareholders want to hear.
