 Horror Forum Would this be a possiblity down the line? Almost all of the horror related threads end up quite popular, and it would give me a place to put my random, inane thoughts about all things horror.
DO IT. DO IT.

I personally don't think its a good idea. If you create a subforum for one genre, you are going to need to create ones for all of them and then you just end up fragmenting the entire forum and making it very confusing for people to figure where to post.
Just my opinion.

Just my opinion. Nah. Horror is known for having a very large and dedicated fan base. You don't have the same thing with actions films and the like. Horror is kind of it's own entity, in a way. It's seperate from the rest of the film world.

I'd love a horror forum, but I doubt it'll happen.
Cinemania will work. Post away, makeshift.

A horror forum at this time doesn't seem wise.
If Cinemania got so crazy (RT crazy) and posts start getting lost, then we would look at options to solve that problem. As of now, nothing to worry about.

Jeff's right. Makeshift, the idea is great, but you're going to get every whiny-baby coming in here asking for a forum for their favorite genre, and their reasons why it'd work.
"Please, we need a forum for Romantic Comedies!"
"You know what this place needs? A special place for fans of Buddy Comedies."
"Ooh, you know what would be great? A forum for Foreign and Independent Films! And I could do this festival every year to attract attention!"

No, makeshift is right...horror is not a genre like romcoms or even comedies. It's something different. If any genre needs a forum (I dunno if any do or not), it's horror.
I say go for it, if only cuz i dont enjoy most horror films, so ymight as well take them out of my path. :o

I know JoBlo.com has a forum dedicated to horror and it seems to do quite well so I say do it.

I want an action movie forum!

6 of the 7 top threads in Cinemania right now are horror related anyway. So, yeah, you do have your horror forum.
