It's entirely possible that your life could be even better here on this website.
Anything is possible.

So IMDB is closing their message boards on February 20th... Maybe they don't want to pay for the staff anymore, the traffic which must be expensive, and it's not getting enough ad revenue for the effort... that's my guess... but IMDb's excuse that people prefer Facebook which has no such title specific discussion for those show pages that anyone actually uses is just blatant BS. Facebook pages aren't used for this, Groups are, so only General Facebook groups on movies and tvs are, which means no specific board for a title, so it's a lot more cluttered and Facebook has no easy organization of discussion, which means, less cohesive discussion. Also Facebook admins are the most power trippy *beep* artists with egos on the planet outside of politics. Basically this really sucks... I've been on iMDb's message board since 2003... I use it nearly every day. Stupid stupid stupid to close them down for the reasons we're being told, it's gotta be something else. Maybe IMDB which clearly has the money since they're owned by Amazon, just wants to save money, but destroying social media has NEVER worked out for any company... just ask YAHOO.

"2017 is the year of new beginnings."
Does that mean that you'll stop weeping blood from your eye?

I've gone with the yellow theme. It reminds me of... something.

So this is how 2017 starts huh? I'm a long-time lurker. I use IMDB mostly for the message boards for individual movies when I need some insight into movies. THAT's what set IMDB apart from other sites. Without it I'd rather going to Wikipedia. RIP IMDB. No more obscure movie discussion

There was crack in my heart when I read that the boards at IMDb will close. I went there every day and loved to read about and discuss movies and actors there. Great loss, great loss! (F* Amazon!)
I don't participate in the social media hype such as Facebook, Instagram or any other selfpromoting crap. To me the boards were a movie afficiate community kind like a family. Sure there were trolls, but they are to find anywhere.
I hope this board will be home to a whole bunch of Movie/TV etc. nerds.

I suppose we should have a link to our IMDb profiles somewhere on here, right?

Why?
When IMDb deletes the message boards, I'll probably delete IMDb from my favourites list.
I won't have any further use for it.

Thanks for starting this. I loved IMDb message boards. Eventually will all shows have separate threads?
