This discussion thread is pinned.

Hi guys and welcome to the DU Movies group. We hope everyone enjoys this as a comfortable open place to discus all things movie related.

Statement of purpose:

This forum is for the discussion of movies (past, present, and yet to be released), the movie industry, movies as an art form, actors and actresses, movie reviews, trailers, meta discussion on movies etc. In other words this is a group for entertainment discussions.

Some simple rules:

What we'd like to leave out of this group are discussions that have little to do with movies and film. Even if they use movies as an entry point if the discussion / intent of the thread is to only discuss other topics these threads better belong in another forum or group and may be locked. If the topic deals with how these issues relate to the movie industry or a particular genre that's fine. Since this is a rather vague definition a lot of leeway will be given and most things will be left to slide. But the foundation of this group remains film, entertainment and related topics.

Please be civil with each other here. We are all entitled to our own opinions and views and many of us have strong feelings about our favourite films and genres. This shouldn't be an excuse to belittle or denigrate anyone for their opinion if it conflicts with your own! A pattern of such activity may get you banned.

Best practices:

If a post contains spoilers and the film is newer than 5 years old please place spoiler warnings in the title! This is a compromise so that we don't have to place spoiler warnings in the majority of thread titles. Even in the case of older films it's still common courtesy to mention spoiler warnings in the body of the thread, but it won't be necessary to have it in the title.

I hope everyone enjoys their time here!
