New Movie Board Suggestions??! [Archive] - The ComingSoon.net Boards

Coming Soon!

09-21-2003, 02:04 AM

I think we're ready for some new suggestions on additional movie boards in the STUDIO TOUR section. For sure staying are LOTR, Matrix, Harry Potter and Star Wars.

Perhaps Van Helsing, Resident Evil: Apocalypse, Kill Bill 1 & 2, Alien vs. Predator?

I'm thinking franchise films, and remember that comic book movies are discussed in the Comic Book Adaptations forum.

Lemme know if you have any thoughts...

Thanks, M.

Perhaps a videogame movie section...If not a resident evil one would be cool

Brock Landers

09-21-2003, 02:16 AM

Perhaps the CHRONICLE OF NARNIA films....

Citizen Kane

09-21-2003, 03:19 AM

Perhaps an Alien/Predator board, until the film comes out.

A Kill Bill forum would be Nirvana for me, but I don't know how popular it would be amongst the others. I would love it, but I doubt it would be very popular.

Resident Evil: Apocalypse would be cool...

I like that idea.

And i got a question is it true that there was once a pearl harbor forum?

tedward

09-21-2003, 10:05 AM

aw is the James Bond thread going to dissapear? That would be a shame.

Ive always looked upon the Studio tours as a place to keep the fanboys locked up away from the rest of the boards. Van Helsing, Resident Evil: Apocalypse, Kill Bill etc arent really that big, compared to the hugely hyped matrix, lotr etc.

Like citizen kane im looking forward to kill bill - alot although I just dont think it would be that popular here. Maybe a martial arts film section?

I dont think a video game movies thread would be required either.

Brock Landers

09-21-2003, 01:52 PM

Hmmm.....CHRONICLES OF NARNIA?

7 book series almost as popular LOTR...huge fan following....think about it. C'mon, "The Lion, Witch and the Wardrobe"!

TyRoss

09-21-2003, 03:02 PM

Personally I'm thinking that after LOTR is done we should do away with the movie specific forums and go to genre forums.

But that might just be me.

That's a good idea, but not boring stuff like 'Drama', 'Action' and such. More like 'Game' movies, 'Comic' movies, etc.

I like the sound of that

Star wars might need a forum all to itself though.

TyRoss

09-21-2003, 03:28 PM

See we already have Horror, Comic Adapts and Animation.

Add:

Sci-Fi (Star Wars, Star Trek, Alien, Terminator etc)

Fantasy (LOTR, Narnia, Harry Potter, there's more on the way I'm sure)

Adventure/Action (Indy, James Bond, Die Hard and more)

Which should cover just about everything except Drama/Comedy which are easily covered in general/upcoming films.

It could work.

You may get the SW! fan boys pissing about how "the greatest sequel event...EVER" would need its own forum..or something like that.....May cause some..hostility

TyRoss

09-21-2003, 03:38 PM

Yes but on a whole the boards becomes easier to manage and less cliqueish.

The little groups that have sprung up in the Matrix, LOTR, Harry Potter and Star Wars forums would interact more with the general populace of the forums which is probobly a good thing.

09-21-2003, 03:51 PM

I might be an idiot for saying this but the battle threads should have their own section in one of the forums.They're popular and really some of them are in the wrong forums as it is.

Just a thought.I know we discussed this before in one of the other threads.

Problem is you want the fans of whatever topic the battle thread is on to be able to see it.

Many may not.

spiderman_2k

09-21-2003, 03:53 PM

No this hasnt really been discussed...I think what one user wanted was a forum where fans of certain films, ie SW, LOTR can pretty much argue against each other...

The only thing about the battle threads is they are all over the place so having them all together would be a good idea, but could just turn into a post whores dream, where they can just run down the list voting happily......

True, It's a dumb idea.Sorry guys.

I have the wrestling thread and it could be more popular for example if people knew it existed.

There is a certain art to advertising your threads withount spamming... discover it.

(sigs and the "whats on your mind" thread can work wonders as long as you don't get obsessive and aren't blatant about it)

how about an X-men forum????
its about the only frachise i can think of that doesnt have its own forum

slinger

09-21-2003, 11:21 PM

X-Men used too.

And we used to have genre forums but that didn't work and all of them were combined to the three we have today. Horror then was born, but before the Genre Forums there was I think Misc. Films, and Misc. Comic Films. So I guess it's a cycle.

Coming Soon!

09-21-2003, 11:22 PM

Damn, with Naomi Watts frontrunner for Peter Jackson's King Kong, damn, may be a forum to consider.

IdahoMR2man

09-22-2003, 09:20 AM

I think Ty's idea is the best. There really aren't any more sagas besides Star Wars after this Dec. And Narnia is a LONG way off. As for the battle threads I think alot of them would fail. I know mine would. Alot of people think that the battle threads are on a whole stupid and wouldn't ever go into an entire forum for them. I think the battles are a passing fad and will fade sometime soon.

Faithless Eye

09-23-2003, 01:40 AM

Spiderman II, or just a general superhero movie forum (wait, we already sort of have that)

generally i think the studio tour section is best suited to a series of films.

but seriously, we need a forum for trailers. stat.

Recently there has been a discussion about a Kill Bill forum but during that discussion I reccomended a Director Forum instead of having just one director we could discuss upcoming projects from certain directors

Gandollum

10-23-2003, 01:50 AM

Maybe a historical epic forum would be nice, since there's going to be a ton of epic films coming out in the next year or two, like alamo, last samurai, alexander, and troy, it would be nice to talk about them and the history behind it.

Edit- Other suggestions, King Kong, Van Helsing, and Pirates of the Caribbean 2+3

That sounds alright, but how about we put it into a filmaking forum or something like that? Sort of like the Production idea that was put forth a few months ago.

Something that would be cool to have ( Although I dont know how popular it will be) Would be an Indie film forum.

They shud do forum places of the best films of each month?!? like Matrix is easily the best film of this month and LOTR will be for December / January, and Kill Bill 2 for March or whenever it comes out ...

Crazy_Slasher

11-03-2003, 11:42 PM

Hmmm....

The only ones I could think of, which have been mentioned, are Spiderman and Kill Bill.

I don't know if Alien Vs. Predator would get enough traffic, I could be wrong.

To be quite honest, I can't really see a film in the near future that would have a big enough fan base to get their on forum.

Maybe, like mentioned, Van Helsing.

Possibly, The Foundation or War of the Worlds in the future.

I only check out the Matrix/LOTR forums.

I don't quite see the purpose of a Terminator forum.

I guess I understand a James Bond and/or Harry Potter forum, though, I am not a big fan of them myself.

You know what I would really love to see, a DIRECTORS forum!

A forum to discuss diffrent directors without all the clutter and mess.

What about a fan fiction forum?

I would be curious to see what creative genius (or not) lurks in some of the members brains.

IMDb is about the most unreliable site there is UNTIL a movie has been released. This film has no distribution yet.

I noticed in the Studio section you added King Kong, the Narnia movie and Pirates 2 which are all great additions. However one movie was not added that 1 will probably top them all and 2 comes out a lot sooner and thats Spider-man 2. There is a lot more info on that movie and was hoping one of the mods could open up a forum dedicated to the movie.
