Problem, the same with the Horror movies, these days a movie isnt just horror or Sci-fi so its a ***** to know which ones to keep or move to the other forum. A sci-fi forum, IMO, is not necessary.

You can discuss sci-fi in the general movie discussion if you absolutely must.

Why would Horror and Comic Books movies get special treatment, and one of Cinema's largest genres of all time not get one?
Logans Run
Enemy Mine
Tron
Dune
Star Wars
The Last Starfighter
Terminator Franchise
Predator Franchise
The 6th Day
Judge Dredd
12 Monkeys
The 5th Element
Planet of the Apes
I could go on and on as to how many Sci Fi movies there are that would support and nuture a potential HUGE Sci Fi section!
And like I said before, had you guys read, threads pertaining to these movies will never get appreciated because of so much random CRAP that FLOODS the "General Movie Discussion" , that they will all get bogged down with polls, duplicate topic posts, "Vs" threads, and whatever else there is everyday clogging bandwidth.
I will even go as far to say that it would be in the boards best interest to open this section, because it will accomodate an even more vast array of board members, and probably play into their loyalty.
To have a section dedicated to Comic Book movies, which there are about 5 MAYBE 6 good examples of said genre in todays market, and NOTHING for Science Fiction is just mindboggling.
Would a section like this be harmful? No. Would it be useful, resourceful, and insure loyalty amongst board members, new and old? Yes!
I don't see how anyone could actually be against this. If it doesn't effect you, please don;t vote unless you have an honestly legitimate reason for your vote, other than "You can talk about it the General Movie Discussion section". Because it deserves more than that.

Horror movies get their own forum because when discussing horror films, usually naughty things are discussed (death, rape and all that nusty stuff). Plus when the horror forum was made, horror movies were very popular around here and they were clogging up the movie discussion forum.
The comic book movies are always more of the same, they are really popular and dominated the movie discussion forum.
Sci fi movies in all honesty, aren't that popular, and don't have very man threads dedicated too them. That's why I don't think a whole forum is necessary. It would be pretty dead I think.

..and like I said, we'll never know until we were to give it a try. Is it because it's mostly kids on here, and Sci Fi isn't "cool enough"?
I must come from the old school message boards, where we respect Sci Fi as roots.

I have nothing against the sci fi genre, I love many of those movies. But I have no problem discussing them in threads created in the general movie discussion forum. And I don't think it's necessary to create a whole forum for them. Now, if they were like the horror threads months back, and comic books movies in popularity, then I would be for this forum. I just don't think that's the case.

At my request, will someone close the thread and poll? I feel like Howard Dean here, getting all amped up only to lose.
