Should we change this to Movie and TV forums?

No.

It's got everything we need already.

And it would need to be Yoda's decision.

Are you just saying that cause you would need to change your nickname to Movie&TVGal?



I always thought we should change the "Box Office and Industry" section to TV in all its variations. TV and streaming is more and more commanding new release dollars now.



I think it was in the 2000s when they started calling TV "the new cinema", thanks to the fantastic looking HBO series like Carnivale and Mad Men.
Seems odd to keep it hidden in a sub-forum and combine it with music.
I don't think the name of the site needs to be changed, people will find it because they want to talk about movies.

Mad Men wasn't an HBO series....

I'm not much of a TV watcher, I'm here for the movies, so I'd say no, the subforum suffices for that kind of discussion.

I would however support changing it to the "Movie and Abstract Art Forums", with the proviso that all posters and film screengrabs be abstract paintings. For example, your review of Abbott and Costello Go to Mars could be accompanied by this image.




I would say the main discussion point around here is movies. We discuss other topics, sure, but discussion of them are mainly confined to sub-forums or individual threads.

Yeah, definitely not changing the name of the site. It's almost a quarter-century old and you can't change domain names the way you can just change whatever you put in a logo/header.

I want the focus to stay on movies. There were a few choices like this very early in the site's history, though back then it was more about whether it should care about movies or make a lot of extra room for just kind of goofing around. I chose movies, and we lost some users over it because they were mostly here to just piddle about. A lot of sites went a different route. They're basically all gone now.

I am, however, open to making the TV forum a little more prominent.



Movie and Porn Forums - I'm all for it!

As usual, I will throw my hat in the ring for a vote to change the site over to The Hello Kitty Happy Fun Time Forum. I am sure it will garner the same amount of support as in the past.

Here is my logo idea:

That would be a good idea.



So, we thinking just making it into one of the "top level"/primary forums on the forum home page is a reasonable tweak?
Awesome. Long overdue being tv series are nudging out movies mostly quality wise. You thinking about 86ing the Box Office Discussion?
