What I love about Cinema Blend is how it is more than just a forum for posting thoughts. The website itself is a hub of film activity lending itself as a great resource for news, reviews, trailers, and more. It has a sleek/easy to use design and also connects directly to your facebook/twitter account for creepy all the time access. Most of the other film discussion boards I found were either too specific (Asian American films, FilmScore, Batman etc...) or looked like they were from 1995.
Being somewhat of a film nerd myself I was really excited to get started on this project. That is until Sunday night when I received the following message.
There's more to read but the basic information is there. Unfortunately I'll have to find another film discussion board. Hopefully Facebook hasn't killed all of them and I can find another decent film forum with the creativity and vibrant atmosphere of Cinema Blend. Until then I'll be presenting on CinemaBlend, my membership and subsequent downfall tomorrow!Say Goodbye To the CB Forum
I'm shutting it down. We all knew it was coming, the place has been deader than dead for awhile.
The simple truth is that people aren't using message boards anymore, everyone has moved on to Facebook.
