I don't post there often, but I still like to read what my favorite members have to say about movies.
And then there was gay.hr, which helped me in more ways than one and has some of the most intelligent people I've come across anywhere.

I've been very lucky actually, in that I didn't have to search many forums to find the right environment. All three were a perfect hit and satisfy my need to talk about my main interests: music, films and books so I don't feel the need to search for other places. Plus, it takes a while to establish yourself in the community and I just don't feel like going through that process again...
