Just now logged onto IMDb and it just sort of feels empty without message boards. Now it's just some search engine for movies. They really shouldn't have terminated boards.

It's basically a dead zone. A sad sight really.

It really does its surreal to not see the links to the boards or to not see them at the bottom of pages. It looks so unfinished now.

I've gone to site twice today because I forgot the boards were gone. There's really nothing on the site that'll keep people visiting on a regular basis now.

I haven't been back since the boards were destroyed, I just don't see the point.

I've looked at the site since the boards closed, and it is just so incredibly boring.

There's really no reason to go on IMDb anymore.

I had a habit of browsing the boards whenever I watched a new movie. Now whenever I watch a movie I still scroll to the bottom to look at the discussion and nothing's there  |

Yeah, it felt weird spending only like 30 seconds on IMDb today seeing what celebrities were born today and the top headlines.

That's what happens when I click my OB bookmark. Now just imagine if they'd randomly slapped us with that message yesterday without a 2-week notice. |

I've only visited once since the change, and I have no desire to go back. I have a feeling someone will take advantage of IMDb's bad decision and create a better platform for movie discussion. IMDb thinks that with Facebook and Twitter, message boards aren't needed, but as much as I love my people on Facebook, they aren't movie buffs! If I said, "Let's talk about our favorite Robert Altman film," they'd say "fuck out of here."  IMDb was a place where a film fan could interact with other film fans. |

I've been trying to avoid them now when I look at films just Wikipedia for the most part, I'm not giving them any traffic. I hate not going to imdb and then start reading random threads about the film.
