Mod Post Rules Update: What We Expect From New Posts

Hey everyone, we have updated the subreddit rules to keep discussions thoughtful, movie-focused, and enjoyable for everyone.

Please keep these guidelines in mind before posting:

  1. Be civil

Disagree with ideas, not people. Personal attacks, harassment, or abusive language will be removed.

  1. Put effort into your posts

Posts and top-level comments should provide enough substance to start a real discussion. One-line or extremely low-effort submissions may be removed.

  1. Explain your point

When answering or making a claim, give some reasoning or context. A bare answer without explanation does not add much to the discussion.

  1. No posts that are only jokes, titles, actor names, or quotes

Add meaningful context and explain why the topic is worth discussing.

  1. Use clear, descriptive titles

Your title should tell people what the post is actually about. Avoid vague or misleading titles.

  1. Avoid unnecessary exaggeration

Keep titles and discussion grounded. Avoid sensational claims or extreme wording just to attract attention.

  1. No self-promotion

Do not use the subreddit primarily to promote your own content, website, channel, or project.

Please take a moment to read the rules before posting. The goal is simple: better discussions, better posts, and a stronger movie community.

finally some rules that make sense, tired of seeing posts that are just "inception" with nothing else

the explain your point rule is good, too many comments just say a movie title like that means something

I'm just seeing the documentary Amy. Her father Mitch reminds me of the evil dad in Muriel's Wedding.
