I agree with a lot of what you guys are saying, being a newbie, I don't have the respect that comes along with having '10000 posts' beside my name. But I love this place, I come here to hear other peoples' opinions and to talk about horror movies. I don't like it when people just post 'that movie sucked' or suchlike, fair enough say it sucked, but explain why. All it does is make these people look ignorant.

respect doesnt come from having a post count over 2 as far as i'm concerned.
it comes from how people present themselves.

post count means fuck all as far as i'm concerned ..

everyone has a voice .. all that matters is how you use it.

I can't speak for anyone else, of course, but I originally came here to have some intelligent discussions about horror films. Unfortunately, it seems that most of the forums (with the exception of General) are more or less dead. This is actually quite discouraging to me. I'm not interested in participating in an internet popularity contest, which is what the General forum seems to be. I'm sorry if this offends anyone, but I'm just calling 'em like I see 'em. Ah well, if anyone actually wants to discuss movies, I'll be here.

nope - you're dead on.

i've been trying very hard to breath life into the actual movie forums .. but not that many people are interested in participating.
just a small handful of regulars.


But fuck it - thats why i first came here - and thats what i'll continue to do.

Finally, people are debating with wit and intelligance here, I thought the day would never come.

Some of you are getting it, bitching and complaining isn't the same as sharing your opion, I don't like all horror films either (Uwe Boll is the devil, and I thought it was Michael Bay for years), but I don't belive any movie "sucks balls", and yes, there are gay movies, but we are not here to discuss BROKEBACK MOUNTAIN. Some of you aren't getting it, but some fools never learn. It's OK not to like something, it's OK to say so, but you don't have to be stupid about it.

I know some of this conterdicts my original post, but I'm not the most articulate guy (or the best speller as I'm sure some have noticed).

I think that's the reason many of us come to this site, yet 90% of what I read here are bitches and complaints on how bad horror movies or how stupid somebodies opion is.

SO PLEASE!!!
No bitchin' and complaining in here, let's leave this one open for folks to say how much of they love horror movies, no matter how bad they are, and not have to suffer some no it all's wise ass comments. Everyone is intitled to their opionon, but we don't all want to hear it.
All I watch is horror films. Most of the people here joined because it is a "Forum" about, wait for it......"Horror"! I mean, go back and look at earlier members posts, 90% of them ask for a movie that's scary because they have yet to find one. We watch horror movies and enjoy them.

I am now leaving this thread.
