The one thing I miss since no longer going to theaters much (unless it’s a movie I really want to watch in IMAX) is that I miss out on the discussions following a film’s release. I wonder if we can have discussion threads here for movies when they are released on streaming/digital so the ones who didn’t see it in cinemas can discuss.

Honestly that seems like a much better way to discuss and enjoy movies in these communities over the endless CEO wanking, profit drooling and box office fellating articles that seemingly dominate these film and tv communities.

It’s the most shallow way to see and appreciate storytelling if all you care about is how much profit it made some CEO.

You should definitely make some posts about movies you want to talk about and try to get the conversation going! I’d join in if I saw the movie.

Yeah I'll probably try doing that. I'll post discussion threads whenever I can watch a new movie within a reasonable time as the digital release.
