It's a shame to close that gateway of theories and clever plot holes observation, and sometimes trolls... but mostly great movies discussions.

After watching a movie, i always go to read the theories of the users. I have 29 years old; since i was 11 i started to visit IMDB, mainly for the forums.

Haven't been on IMDB since they dropped the message boards. I can't think of a reason to use the webside other than the boards, to be honest.

it's a loss to not have the boards anymore. and a defeat. is it not a way to allow hatred win over the meaningful discussion and exchanges that did take place? why diminish capacities for resistance even further?

Only reason I visit IMDb is to read message board if I want to know technical stuff about movie I go to Wikipedia and for ratings I use rotten tomatoes

Message board was the best thing about Imdb, I was constantly looking for explanations about shows or movies.

The message boards were the main reason I visited IMDB. After watching a film, I would always come and check what others posted when I had questions and needed clarity on plot points, symbolatry, plot holes, etc... Now I don't know where to turn for these kind of answers and analysis- esp. for non-current/obscure/foreign films. Please, bring back the boards!

I think that for a majority of the people (including myself) the messageboard had a great added value.

The imdb message boards were a lot of things, the most important of which for me was that they were a good source of information. I just headed over to imdb because I had a question about something confusing that happened late in a movie I just watched and NOPE, NO MORE MESSAGE BOARDS. *traumatized* I guess I'll just be left to wonder. NOT HAPPY.

What a stupid decision it was to remove the boards. Imdb was such a great place to visit and check what people say on the movie you just saw. Now it's all gone. Don't see any reason to visit imdb anymore, you ruined it.
