Thanks, I hate it.

I always have a tough time with website redesigns like this but I really hope I'll get used to it eventually.

So far what I hate the most is that they got rid of the calendar format for the daily grosses (now it's just a straight up list).

And they got rid of the weekly grosses so now you can only see it by individual day.

RIP old bom.

I never posted on them, but I always enjoyed ghosting & reading other people's thoughts. Occasionally I still think about them & wish they existed

I have yet to find an adequate replacement. There really was nothing better for asking specific questions about specifi movies.

That was the best. Sometimes you would learn the coolest shit. It’s that they didn’t want to moderate or didn’t know how.

I miss those boards and I’ve noticed thanks to google being so damn good with cast lists and other avenues that I don’t hit up IMDb nearly as often the last few years.
