The Internet Movie Database is an indispensable resource if you have any interest whatsoever in films. Want to try and figure out where you’ve seen that character actor before? Do you need to know ratings, runtime, or quotes? But if you want to discuss movies, you’ll now have to go elsewhere: the site is shutting down its message boards system.
According to a statement on IMDB, the site’s message forums and the private messaging system will be disabled on February 20th, because they “are no longer providing a positive, useful experience for the vast majority of our more than 250 million monthly users worldwide.”

Well if you have a page because you work in cinema in some way, you probably had a message board where people discussed your work...for better or worse

They should have just improved the system. If I want to know who was in what, I usually go to Wikipedia. IMDb was mostly useful for clicking on those boards to see if anyone else had the same question or noticed the same weird detail, and usually finding a whole thread of people discussing it.
