We're Almost There!!!

[Yoda]

Hi Everyone!

As you can see, the board is doing fairly well. Another big thanks to the other flick sites out there linking to us - FilmBug.com has been basically our biggest source of traffic thus far!

I've currently got some major ad time for MovieForums coming up - should really help to get things moving.

In addition, I've written some killer database scripts that will integrate the new reviews and movie news stories in with these forums - it'll all be tied together.

Here's what's coming:

- Movie reviews...guy flicks, chick flicks, and even some more obscure reviews.
- Movie news - you'll be able to leave comments after each movie news story using your username and password here on the boards!
- Box Office - this might come a bit later, but we hope to start building a massive database of box office information - fully searchable and sortable! :)
- Contests, trivia and games - the first contest will be held as soon as the site launches...

Everyone else as excited as I am? :) I think the programming we have done here will make for one awesome, tightly-knit community.

Oh and by the way: the contest hasn't started yet, but the most you post now, the better your chances will be to win later! :)

Thanks for mentioning Filmbug.

As you might know I've had some serious problems with keeping Filmbug up and running but now (almost) everything is fixed (we switched to a dedicated machine).

I'm looking forward to your additions...

I didn't notice actually - I did notice that the site was down for a bit...but didn't realized you switched to a dedicated server.

Congratulations! :)

Hey, filmbug is a pretty cool site. I just bookmarked it. I'll put a link in my forums.

Does this post bring back memories? Yoda

Gandalf I hate you. I repped Yoda's post.

I wonder what Yoda's going to think when he logs in and see's that a 17 year old post if his is being repped

What contest? did anyone win? Looks like ashdoc is no longer the winner!

And the Golden Shovel reward for reviving a 17 years old thread goes to...

Shouldn't he get it for reviving this one (https://www.movieforums.com/community/showthread.php?anchor=1&p=1768724#post1768724) as that was started in August 2000 while this one was started in September

Yam12: He's gettin' a lifetime achievement!

Gandalf I hate you. I repped Yoda's post.



He almost got me too. Almost.

It's a fun game, you just click "last page" of every sub forum and start bumping 17 year old stuff.

Here's a fun thought, these threads will outlive us all, quite possibly anyway.

Our families in 200 years could be looking up these threads to see what their ancestors were up to.
