Tired of those same tired cookie-cutter movies invading your local theater and rental store? Wanting something just a tad different than what's considered the norm? Well then, you are right where you belong. This community is for people who like independent films, foreign films, artsy films, etc., and are wanting a place open to discussion. Feel free to make recommendations, submit icons or other such graphics, or if you just have a question about a movie, here's your chance to ask it. So what are you waiting for? JOIN!
Oh, and if you have anything to add to the interests section, do not hesitate to let me know!
Yes, there are a few rules in this community.
1) NO using the word "overrated" (around here, referred to as "the O-word") without offering some kind of support as to why you feel that way about the subject. It may seem stupid, but if you insist on using the word without providing a good reason then I can gladly point you in the direction of plenty other communities that allow the word to be used as often as you please.
2) Please put spoilers behind a cut. This respects people who may have not seen the movie and who would like to.
3) Here we often rate movies, usually using the 4-star, 5-star, and A-F methods. If you have a different way of rating your movie, give us a brief explanation on the rules so that we aren't confused.
Yeah...I'm not keen on rules. The people in this community are flawless. This is one of the friendliest film communities around and I plan to keep it that way.
