Sorry Powder, that's my last jokey post.

I don't really know what's more to say though? Everyone agrees it's a great idea and should be put into action. The results are unanimous.
I'm up for any and all of those names. Create a group, or call me them. Your pleasure.

In other words, maybe someone take a sec to start the social group thingy, and let's get on with it. Would save the mods stress right? Or no?

Somebody do something, I'm arguing with myself over here!

Haha, to be honest I'm not really a part of the arguments over the film. However, groups like that, where people just rage at each other and ad hominems are actively encouraged as part of the group would be pretty funny.

No no nonono, lol...
We want an arguments group, for the movie. I mean, I think we do.
Do we? Man, I don't even know anymore. This has gotten so confusing.

Look I just want to tell B-man he's wrong about everything, an hurl expletives at him because he likes it (not the movie, having expletives hurled, of course! ). Can we make a place to do that?

What happens when sh*t gets nasty though? How does it stay controlled if it's in a group? We all know how nutty these arguments can get... and Laird knows I wouldn't want to pseudo-mod any such discussion group; I don't have the temperament for it.

I hate to say this, but...

Create a subforum for the movie lovers, seal the haters off.

Create a subforum for the haters, wall off the movie lovers.

Any posts that cause trouble in either section are deleted.

Someone gets mad then they can just stomp off and go sulk in the general forums.

But...but... what about the many who are kinda in-between? Those who wish to discuss it but might find extreme levels of both cheerleading and criticism equally obnoxious. They who wish to talk about both things they like and dislike. [insert faux melodrama] Where do they go... No lover or hater section is going to tolerate their lukewarm position.

I kind of love the idea of the Hate/Love specific forums.
That way people, who like myself, aren't either can avoid the wingnuts from both.

But as it stands now, neither side has a safe haven to discuss their views with other people without being attacked by the other side.

That's not true. Samxsteal or one of those guys created a social group for those who want only positive discussion & last I saw it had 40+ members. Creating separate sections is a terrible idea as it only serves to further divide the groups instead of teaching them to play nice. The last thing this forum needs is more cliques & "Us vs Them" nonsense.

I agree, it sounds like this would be a lot more organized.

It could work. All it'll do is funnel the pointless bickering into one specific section, but since that's simply become the purpose of the Movie forum as of late I don't think there's anything wrong with that. Seriously.

This is a great point that I hadn't considered.
I repeal my support of the idea until I've had the chance to mentally chew on it further.

The cartoon shows have their own sections, it might be for the best that Platinum Dunes/Viacom get their own.

This is my reasoning, too.

I'm okay with this.

Man, who'd have thought that a TMNT movie could cause a civil war? I guess the Turtles just have that effect on people.
