Mass Forum Merge into the MDF

Text-only Version: Click HERE to see this thread with all of the graphics, features, and links.



Impediment
I have an idea that could liven up the Movie Discussion Forum and get rid of some of the, for lack of a better word, dead movie genre sub-forums:

The Sci-Fi/Fantasy Forum, the Animations & CGI Forum, the Foreign Cinema Forum, and the Horror Forum should all be mass moved into the Movie Discussion Forum.

The Horror Forum, like BackFire has already said in agreement with me, has lost most of, if not all of it's regulars who kept it going.

The Sci-Fi/Fantasy forum is down to a snail's crawl with little activity therein.

The Animations & CGI forum is basically a duplicate forum, in my opinion, since there are duplicate threads in the MDF that I can't keep track of sometimes. The same can, also, be said for the Sci-Fi/Fantasy forum.

As for the Foreign Cinema forum? Just go look at it's "recent activity" and tell me that it's not dead.

The only movie genre sub-forums that are alive and well are the Anime Forum and, especially, the Anime Versus Forum. I feel that these forums should be left the way they are, and separate from the MDF. That, and Anime discussions, in my opinion, are an all together different type of experience that would be found in the MDF.

I feel that if a mass forum merge happened, then the Movie Discussion Forum would be more active and people would not have to keep sending me PMs about "where should I put this thread I want to make" or "can you tell me where I can find a thread for this film?", and so on and so on.

Also, it would be VERY crucial to teach people on how to effectively use the Search Function to look for already existing threads as to avoid clutter.

Honestly, I really look forward to seeing this happen. Not just from a a moderator's stance, but from a member of KMC, as well. All we need are some positive comments from you, the posters, and wait for Raz to make a decision.

What say you guys? Use the poll I made and comment herein!

Bardock42
I agree, the forums seem to be mostly dead, perhaps some threads that are now in the specific forum would be more successful in the MDF where there are more people.

Rogue Jedi
Mattie, where can I find a thread for this film?

BruceSkywalker
Matt I am all for this

what we need to do is find out why its dead as in have others post their opinions with the site as in do they go to another site as well to chat and why ? is there to many mods on here ? are the topics not intresting anymore ?

we need to know what the problem is so we can try to fix it

Sweet. Let's get some more opinions!

The problem, in my opinion, is that we have TOO many sub-forums. I feel that the MDF is suitable for all genres of film.

We used to have a Kill Bill & Quentin Tarantino forum, but it died from inactivity and Raz merged it into the MDF.

The movie franchise forums are not my turf, but it's my opinion that some of them, not all, should be merged, too.

jaden101
I think the merged forums would open up a lot of films to people who wouldn't venture into those forums through initial lack of interest. This would probably apply in particular to the foreign cinema thread where a huge number of truly astounding films are only ever discussed by the people on the boards that have a serious interest in film beyond the mainstream.

I would also like it if there were threads allowed in the main movie forum that are based on the same films as those found in more specialised threads (particularly the comic book movies).

I think there's people who'd like to discuss the movies and have little interest in the comics but don't want to be hounded and flamed as somehow being inferior because they don't have an obsession with the comics that the movies are based on. I think you see that a lot in the comic book section. I even recall someone saying something akin to "If you don't know then don't ask cause it makes you look like an idiot"...I could really use with that kind of mentallity fenced off from the broader discussion of film.

The anime I have no real interest in so that doesn't affect me so I wont comment on that section as I have no clue as to the traffic it generates.

I think the only downside to the merging would be that threads about great films that, while only ocassionally getting posted in, still generate interest as more people discover the hidden gems, would be lost in among the new big budget releases and drop off the page and be lost.

To add to this, I'd say that most of the movie franchise threads could probably be merged as well...For all the serious activity there is anymore in the LotR, Matrix, Terminator etc they probably aren't worth the space.

Perhaps the merging of some related threads from those sections would have be done 1st before they are moved into the MDF.

BackFire
As said, I support this.

chomperx9
theres one forum i dont go on here because of a certain mod on there thats a little unfair and takes advantage of being a mod.

i go to the AVs forum site. dont want to say any names or the topic to start any junk but on that site the mods on that forum page are more fare and kind. im sure its one of the reasons its a little slow on that forum to.

LanceWindu
How about we try this?

Instead of 1 Movie Discussion Forum and a few genre forums, we can go by the rating system.

G Rated
PG
PG-13
R
*Or foreign equivalents.

Keeps things together, but separated.

We take Comic Book Movies and discuss those in the appropriate, aforementioned forums and have one forum for Comics and a sub-forum for Comics Vs and another for Respect threads. We don't really need all the different forums for each character. And on the same note, we don't really need to lump every topic for each character/series into one thread either.

I think that's the problem with fewer forums, the mods would force everyone to talk about each thing in specific, single threads. That's very disconcerting to some members because they don't want to have to read every page of the thread to be caught up to speed. Sure, merge the ones that are the same discussion, but if it's a completely different thought, let it fly.

Impediment
A rating system would be nice, I admit, but how would we discern so many threads with said system? We'd be moving thread after thread for weeks!

I think that'd just lead to confusion as I don't know the ratings on most films I watch because they are generally irrelevant once you're old enough to watch all of them. They're not even a good guide to content anymore.

I also think any forum labelled with an 18 or R rating would be like a beacon for idiotic 13 year olds trying to find out about films they're not supposed to be watching and inevitabely chiming into the discussions with moronic drivel. A large chunk of the illiterate retarded comic book forum dwellers would fall into that catagory (no offence to those intelligent people who have an interest in the subject but i'm sure you can agree that the comic forum is chock full of shit spouting flamer half wits)

Bardock42
The movie subforums all don't seem to get that much traffic at all so I think just discussing all movies in the Movie Discussion Forum makes sense. I'd even say that you should allow Comic Movies (even though we should keep the Comic Forums) to be discussed in there, like Jaden said, Comic Movies have definitely become more mainstream however the comic hobby as a whole is still more niche, so it is good to have the subforums to discuss things about the movie, in relation to the comics, etc. but for people who just like the movie, and don't obsess about it, it would be nice to have a thread in the Movie Forum.

MildPossession
Don't like the idea of the ratings option at all.

As for the topic option, I think it will be a fantastic idea, but definitely keep comics, anime and so on separate. I agree with everything Jaden said basically.

dadudemon
This is an excellent idea. In addition to that...

We should definitely do this. Move the movie sections of the comic book sections to the movie discussion forum, without it's own subforum....just simply dumped in with the rest of the movies.

We should be able to discuss movies in the MDF. I admit that I have a hard time finding things, once in a blue moon, and that's stupid because I help design and index searching features for databases at work. I think i've gotten used to searching with it, though.



Anywho, this is a great idea and I've wanted this to happen for a while and I've whined about it to the mods about it on more than one occasion.

Scythe
Yeah, I'm for it. A nice one stop place for any move is good.

chomperx9
i dont agree with the ratings option as well. people dont search for movies by their rating its by the topic people look for.

everyone has different taste in movies so people look online maybe for a new good comedy movie that just came out or sci fi or adventrue not some kick ass rated R movie

What about discussing comic book movies in the MVF? I mean, it's already going on as we speak, but some people would argue that "even though it's a comic book film, it's still a movie, therefore we should be able to have a thread in the MDF".

Personally, I say that if the film originated from a comic book, then it should be in the CBM Forum.

You heard it, Raz! What say you?

I disagree....You only have to see what happened with Watchmen to see the conflict that it creates. Some people didn't read and probably will never read the graphic novel...Does this mean that they deserve the "not a true Watchmen fan" nonsense that gets spouted....Are these people to exclude themselves from the discussion of the film simply because they don't know all the details of the comics?

WickedDynamite
Matrix Forum should have been gone ages ago.

Seriously, though, KMC is, indeed, in need of a re-boot, in a sense.

Consider this thread my attempt to help jump start it.

Too tired to respond in full.

I agree.

I have a suggestion. Much how the comic book forum has a Comic Book Questions thread, could we have a stickied Movie Questions thread? I know infinite answers lay somewhere in the internet, since we're on it, but still, the people here including myself, watch a ton of movies, know pletny of trivia and can answer simple things like "What's the plot of (insert movie here)?" Or "who starred in this old movie?" Just a thought, beep beep.

Or google, yeah, but you can only count on IMDB for some things. Like I couldn't remember a movie's title, other than Christian Bale was in it and the slight details of the plot, took me forever to find it on IMDB. There's craploads of comic book resource sites that have tons of information, but you ask a question in the CBQ thread, and bam! It gets results. People on there are very knowledgable.

We have a thread for help with movie titles, but pretty much everything else you can find on IMDB.

AsbestosFlaygon
I agree with this move... as long as the comics and anime forums are separate.

And I agree that versus matches about comic or anime characters in movies should be put in their respective forum, and not the movie forum.

Also, I think the Star Wars forums should be merged into a unified forum.
The Star Wars TV series sub-forum should be a thread.

LanceWindu
The Star Wars forums I would have a hard time seeing merge, just because KMC was founded as a Star Wars forum before it branched out to all movies.

Jaeh.is.Awesome
it probably doesn't matter, but I support this.

carry on, and I'll just wait and see what happens.

Robtard
Merging is a good idea, as every time I make a thread about a movie I'm interested in the Movie Forum, some twit like Mildpossession says "there's already a thread in the *insert name* section"; never understood why all movies aren't in one forum, then divided into sub-groups there.

So yes, it's a great idea.

Ushgarak
One of those little ironies, this, I guess, that there is now this big movement to squeeze everything together to improve quality, whilst years ago it was the reverse.

Fair play, though. Idea sounds good to me.

And we learned that splitting everything apart did more harm than good.

Impediment
It's really unnecessary, if you ask me, to have so many sub-forums for so many movie franchises. (The Matrix, Transformers, Indy Jones, POTC, and Terminator.) Again, though, these aren't my areas, so I won't press the issue.

REXXXX
I feel that some of the franchises should maintain separate entities if they are still getting traffic... but otherwise yeah, I always thought it was a good idea to establish a section if there were threads that didn't fit anywhere, not because people wanted to have their own little world.

Star Wars would obviously stay separate, but some of the dead subsections should be merged.

Impediment
Star Wars? Defintiely.

Harry Potter? Ask RoguePw25 for an opinion.

Star Trek? We need input from -Pr-.

the star trek one isn't JUST about the movies, though; it's about the entire franchise.

i'd agree with the merging of most of the forums, though, like horror, sci fi etc.

Yeah.
I mean, those movies you mentioned could've been turned into threads, instead of sub-forums.

Look at some examples in the Anime forum perhaps.
There are Naruto fans who discuss everything about the show in "The Official Naruto Thread", and all One Piece fans discuss their stuff in the "One Piece" thread.

Creating sub-forums for a particular franchise is totally unnecessary, imo.

Mostly it's about relevance now. Most of the franchise threads have come and gone and probably wont be added to any time soon.

Perhaps replacing them with more relevant franchises would be a good idea. An Aliens/Predator section for example. Seeing these will probably have quite a few films added to them over the next few years (for good and bad)

The matrix obviously wont. Can't see Terminator having more either.

One thing to perhaps add is a film making section. I don't know if anyone that posts here makes amateur films or works in the business but it could be good. Even for just people saying there's films being shot close to them...Work as extras going etc...If anyone wants to discuss the technical aspects of films then that can be done there too.

I saw the comments about the Anime/Manga forum. Good call. My only question is the LOTR, Harry Potter, Pirates and Bond forums seem to still get traffic. Would all those forums get absorbed into a general movies forum?

Either way, sounds good to me.

LanceWindu
Harry Potter forum is pretty dead at the moment. Only 5 or so threads ever get any posts, and it's always the same few people posting. I'm sure it will kick up around the release dates of the next movies, but after that I think it should be absorbed.

LOTR should be merged now, I think. There's no new content coming from the franchise, except for The Hobbit, which could have it's own thread in the movie forum.

Pirates seems slow. Once again there's only a few topics getting regular posts and mostly they are Love/Hate threads for characters. There's no real discussion going on anymore.

I never venture into the world of Bond, but seeing how they are always coming out with movies, it would be a good bet to keep it separate right now.

I dunno man, rapidly closing in on 2 years, with barely over 3k posts, that screams dead to me.

Just looking at the first page of the Star Trek forum, I can see how slow it is.

Ushgarak
I do agree in principle. It's always nice to reduce front page clutter. As I mentioned before when other areas were mooted, it's a bad idea to create new areas just because a handful of people want them. They almost never get the posting that people beforehand say they will.

People try to counter this by saying new areas could be tried on a trial basis only- but that never works. There is never any trial period- they just die off and keep cluttering the page.

Trek is an example of this. The area should not have been made and there is not even remotely the material in there that makes it deserve its own area. The Doctor Who/Torchwood franchise has not far off as many posts as Trek, but the shows are perfectly happy with a thread apiece in the TV area. That is far more sensible- and besides which, it means there are none of those senseless posts of no value that people post when a section has its own area just to fill space.

I think a similar mindset created many of the movie sub-areas, like Foreign Cinema.

I don't see why it can't have a dedicated thread in the MDF for the series and discussion for the new movie can go in there. A lot of the "fanboy/fangirl" following has dropped off after the 3rd movie since it wasn't nearly as good as the first movie.

I don't see why it's a bad idea, really. It'd be much simpler than the MVF. And if people didn't like it, they can simply stay out of it.

Take Wolverine, if discussing him, there are no limits. One can use movie and comic feats, as well as cartoon feats. It'd be much like the MVF, but with less boundaries. Get the right person to mod it and it would thrive IMO.

Bardock42
I like the idea of a Anything Vs. Forum. Perhaps it could be a subforum of the OTF or GDF. However it probably would have to be closely monitored on here, seeing how vs. forums seem to get really emotional and really aggressive very fast. I could see potential in such a forum though, always wondered whether Ryu Hayabusa would beat Batman from the comics.

And what Bardock said, it would need a hands on moderator.

I feel I made myself clear when I said take it to suggestions. Always do that in future, rather than PMing Raz.. Do not discuss it here.

was thinking about it. So some forums could probably get squeezed into MDF, and have one thread per forum, like one for POTC and such... but there are also fan threads, like respect/appreciation/(fangirl) threads for different characters. So those would go into respect threads, then?

You need to get out more. Message boards all over the internet have experienced a huge slow down due to the popularity of Facebook and Twitter and I don't see that changing anytime soon.

It's a simple fact that people are always looking for something faster and less encumbered and both those platforms fit the bill.

The amount of mods here has nothing to do with the slow down.

I shall look into merging ASAP. Think we should consult the rest of the mods first.

Pretty much every mod is for the move, Raz. We all support this.

The only forums that need to stay separated are the Anime, Anime VS., and Comic Book Movies Forums.

It also has Robtard's approval; that's all that really matters.

Make it so.

I would like to suggest that the Indiana Jones section gets moved to the MDF. The next movie is still miles away (if there will ever be a new one) and for now it gets overrun by offtopic talk... or posts with only one smiley. I really think it has nothing to offer anymore.

There doesn't seem to be much interest in the Sci-fi/Fantasy forum, which makes me sad. : (
