so we won't be talking about red sparrow here.......screw you imdb
creating buzz and excitement......movies will suffer, fans as well, screw you imdb
Yes, how is this "enhancing user experience?"
If I enjoyed Red Sparrow and wanted to watch more films like it, how would I find out?
If I wanted to discuss aspects of the film, how could I now?
If I wanted more word-of-mouth, how could I get it?
IMDB is the central hub for movie chat. Without the message boards, half the usefulness of the site is gone.
I think this is a bad decision that will cause visits to the site to drop very drastically. Less views = less ads revenue.
You are shutting these boards down because they are viewed as a negative to the average person and more importantly to Hollywood. You don't want that type of negative press which is understandable. Nobody likes bad press. But just know that you are a coward for doing this. You are caving to the pressures of others. You are taking away our voice and our freedom to express ourselves and that is a cowardly act. But worst of all you are straight up lying to us.
Everyone here knows you aren't closing the boards due to some bogus technology or "troll" issue. You're a monster company who makes millions of dollars. You're telling me you can't run simple message boards that have very little additional features? Yeah right. You are 100% caving to the PC world where you aren't allowed to have a voice and everything must be positive. No criticism is allowed. Only sunshine and rainbows. So go ahead shut down the boards. We will find someplace else. But know that by doing this you and everyone at IMDB are cowards.
Yep,they`ve totally screwed themselves with this decision.
