Hi everyone, I stumbled upon this board on ICM, and I miss the golden age of forums so thought I'd join. I used to post on The Life Cinematic (RIP) as InHuman, I have a feeling there's some small overlap between the userbases? Anyway, I don't watch movies as diligently as I used to, but still nice to have a place to discuss stuff, Film Twitter and Letterboxd can't scratch that itch fully.

Good question! I feel like the moment more people started browsing the Internet at home on their phones than laptops. So, I don't know, 2014? Bit later?

I don't follow the trends, but that rings true. A friend told me recently the golden age of blogs was over, and so he's putting his film reviews on Letterboxd instead of his blog.

As the quarantine continues, I found myself on the Internet Archive, reminiscing the mubi days. Doesn't go back to when it was The Auteurs, but surprisingly still a lot worth remembering, somewhat intact. Ruby, Cedric, Flip, Jerry, Cani, Sally, Falderal, etc, the profiles the way they were are all there, together with some lists and forum posts. Really grateful for the insights they and others provided there. Letterboxd doesn't compare.

Anyway, this prompted me to create a profile here (under a different name). I won't be very active though, I never was.
Does anyone know if Falderal/Wu Yong is active anywhere?

That's a shame, really. But I guess letterboxd just didn't make sense to him, given that discussion is impossible. Hope he's okay.

as a sidenote that won't matter to anyone: also think b. traven was the penname for someone who thought about what the opposite of a seagull would be, and came up with a beach raven

but that's just me...

A couple weeks ago I dreamed the word "schizopherical" (or the spanish equivalent, actually...) and I'd love to find a meaning for it.

Hey everyone! Just joined this site -- I follow several of you on Letterboxd and tend to learn a lot from your reviews and lists so I thought I'd sign up here.

Hi everyones. I was briefly around a couple of years (?) ago, but got sidetracked with life stuff. Work, studies and all that. I finally got things kind of managed (at least unitl my wife gives birth in a couple of months) and I've really missed the discussions and recommendations, so I'm back.
Really looking forward to watching movies, doing lists, talking books and all that!!
