Hey everyone, Jim here (founder of MovieChat). How's everyone doing?

It's been a year and a half since MovieChat was created, and in that short amount of time, we've become the leading destination to discuss movies online. For our longtime members, thank you for your continued loyalty and contributions to the site; for our new members, welcome to our community!

I, along with a small team and our volunteer moderators, continue to support the site, managing and maintaining things behind the scenes, and ensuring that MovieChat continues to be the leading destination to discuss movies online. We are excited about what the future holds and look forward to many more years of movie and entertainment discussion.

How do I become a moderator? It sounds like a prestigious position.

[–] VinceD (9887) a year ago

I like to think he's a Ninja.

[–] tcrum (31595) a year ago

I hate to say this but I think Imdb and moviechat are both owned by Amazon.

[–] VinceD (9887) a year ago

Oh god.

[–] tcrum (31595) a year ago

We should all thank god this site is still running. There is no money being made here. Why keep it up and running.

[–] VinceD (9887) a year ago

Agreed.

It seems to me a company doing what it can to be anonymous

After I've read the OP got a question:
Is this the meeting place for MC's real Masters of Ceremony? 🌐

I did a little Googling and the "Principal Address" is physicaladdress.com. [one of those virtual mailbox places]. Marsha Siha looks to me like some service to help shield the owners of a company and keep them private.

[–] TimeTunnel (4769) a year ago

Ohhhhh, thank you!!! ♥♥♥
Means, Marsha Siha may be a kind of straw man.
Makes sense and opens up space for many conspiracy theories. 🧞‍♀️

[–] GlenEllyn (21577) a year ago

Very interesting. Thank you!

They run advertising. They're making money.

[–] GlenEllyn (21577) a year ago

I think he's still here, but he has a lot of irons in the fire. 🔥 His main mission was to save comments from IMDb.

[–] Mustang (5449) a year ago

It was the best set up for a movie and tv forum, to have a page for everything rather than the usual boards where there is just heaps of threads getting lost over time.

[–] GlenEllyn (21577) a year ago

I agree. Although I was just a lurker on IMDb, I'm glad Jim was able to save the posts.

[–] Mustang (5449) a year ago

There were a lot of stupid arguments at times. IMDb never moderated it properly. Still the best format though, glad Jim saved it.

[–] BrandNewPoster (10996) 7 months ago

We could probably use more moderators since some of them don't post here anymore.

[–] Skavau (15993) 7 months ago

Jim last posted 6 years ago

This site is basically abandoned tbh

[–] BrandNewPoster (10996) 7 months ago

We still have at least one moderator, who I believe has a way to contact Jim.

[–] jriley555 (8215) 7 months ago

The problem is, and this has occurred in my own experience, when these one-man sites owners stroke out otherwise disappear, the site becomes unavailable.

I hope there is a process in place to immortalize the site.

[–] Skavau (15993) 7 months ago

You'd think that but the internet is littered with abandoned websites that are still operable.

[–] jriley555 (8215) 7 months ago

As long as someone somewhere are paying the server rent. Which usually is not perpetually funded.

[–] Skavau (15993) 7 months ago

Indeed.

This is ridden with ads, so that lightens it. I doubt its that expensive to run. It's basically just text.

[–] JoWilli (20275) 7 months ago

I heard last year that this site was sold. and yes, I am sure whoever runs this site now is making a profit so they could care less what happens here.
