I come to these message boards because I don't have friends who like to delve into the discussion of movies and shows as much as I do. I LOVE seeing others points of view. I truly believe IMDb will be nothing when they delete all of their message boards. I'll most likely be deleting the app, since I can look up ratings and movie times anywhere else.

The message boards are very valuable to many people. I promise you , you will have far fewer unique users if you go through with you plan.

There is no other place on the Internet to discuss older shows and movies. I was just discussing I Love Lucy today!

I use the boards a lot. They are a great place to get information regarding shows or films.

The boards on IMDb are one of the best things about the site. IMDb is all about people sharing their thoughts on movies and TV shows, but reviews don't allow for interaction and being able to debate in the way the boards do. I've been using IMDb for over 10 years, and they're definitely one of the best things about it. Sure, there are plenty of trolls and spam, but that's like 1% of everything you find on the boards, and it's up to IMDb's management to make sure those things go away.

You should keep the IMDB message boards because even though people say negative things on them they are still a great way for movie lovers to talk about films and tv shows.

This has been the only site I go to for movie info - and have always gone to the message boards - there isn't any other site to use that discusses the movies in the same way IMDb does. A great shame if they disable them.

Many of the users on the message boards have become like family and to close down such a major part like these boards is utterly heartbreaking.

I don't use any social media outlets. The message boards let me discuss with others the content and suppositions that I would never have thought of but adds to my pleasure of the program. Closing the boards is short sighted and needs to be revisited.

No way in hell am I migrating to Facebook or Twitter and their awful interfaces to read what other regular movie fans thought about a particular film.

Please reconsider this. IMDb is a major part of my life. I use it every single day; it's a fixture on my computer screen.

Let's live our lives unafraid of being offended by every little thing. (Or every big thing) I have enjoyed reading the message boards for years.
