And is a movie thread still going to happen? Where did all the red tape come from?
Wolfram, I'm wondering the same thing. I can only assume the Stompies have higher priorities and/or are all waiting for someone else to do it. Or else there's a secret cabal conspiring against the movies thread, but I'm not *that* paranoid. Feel free to close the poll, anyhow.
Here are the title, slug, and description that seem to have broad support:
Title: Buffista Movies 1: Who doesn't love Denzel?
Slug: Did you know that the Chinese characters for "movie" translate literally into "electric shadow"? Isn't that pretty? Um. Yeah, so, this is the Buffistas movie talk thread. Drop on by.
Header: A place to talk about movies--Old and new, good and bad, high art and high cheese. It's the place to place your kittens on the award winners, gossip about upcoming fims and discuss DVD releases and extras. Spoiler policy: White font all plot-related discussion until a movie's been in wide release two weeks, and keep the major HSQ in white font until two weeks after the video/DVD release.

I think there was some feeling that the whitefonting/spoiler policy wasn't yet decided.
t sigh
I'm pretty sure it had. Two weeks after wide US release for minor plot points, two weeks after US video release for major HSQ.
t edit
...which is already there in the header.
Okay. In that case, I don't know why.
Just to clarify, that sigh wasn't directed at you Am-Chau; it's just that if I have to read the words "spoiler policy"
one more time...
I got that. I know the feeling.
Title: Buffista Movies 1: Who doesn't love Denzel?
Except that "Monkey" won the poll.
Okay, then make it Monkeys. I didn't check the poll -- sorry.
I feel that perhaps we should keep the voting on the board in future. I see the attraction of voting in a poll like that, but it seems to have too many possible difficulties- people who can't vote, people who don't bother to vote there when they might here, people who vote lots of times to change the result (some have happened, some could)- that it isn't worth it. Counting posts isn't that difficult.
