    Absolutely devastated. I never visited that message board but I did occasionally see their very stupid thread topics related to whatever movie I was looking at. Crazy to not have that anymore.

    The quality of IMDb threads makes Clutchfans look like top shelf intellectuals.

    That's a shame. IMDB message boards were how I learned the hot teacher from Kick Ass actually filmed a felatio scene.

    Wasn't even aware of imdb message boards. Always came to Clutch for movie reviews.

    Is this where people put their reviews, I don't think I can live without some TedG. This is almost as bad as TV Guide destroying jumptheshark, or losing FameTracker after Bravo bought TWoP.

    IMDB threads, from what I can tell, is largely spam. I think they gave up trying to stop the SPAM and just decided to turn them off. Good decision.
