New layout is quite good. Would still like to see some styling added to comments to help differentiate them. Something like this perhaps:

Room was pretty good. All the movies I posted above are on Amazon Prime Video.
Some decent movies I've recently watched:
Margin Call (2011)
99 Homes (2015)
The Lobster (2015)
Swiss Army Man (2016)
Bone Tomahawk (2015)
Payback (1999)
Saw a post on The Shining forum.
A few suggestions:
Shrink the font a bit for thread titles.
Widen things a bit more (it's currently at 66%. Bumping it up to 76% or even 86% would be nice).
Alternate the background colors for both post titles and posts themselves. This helps differentiate them, especially posts.
Float the post info (posted 3 hours ago by x, 1 replies) to the right instead of having it below the title.
A lot of this can be achieved thought plain old CSS.
Other stuff:
Replies are pretty much necessary for any forum.
An edit/delete function would be great.
A way to browse the latest posts throughout the entire board would be nifty.
In short: The Empire Strikes Back
As a kid (born in 88, so it wasn't till the the mid 90s I got into Star Wars) I always viewed Return of the Jedi as the best of the three. The action was good, I enjoyed the humor story, and somehow had no issue with the Ewoks. As I've gotten older though I think The Empire Strikes Back is the best of all the Star Wars movies I've seen so far. It's the darkest of the original trilogy, and of course has what it probably the most well known 'twist' in movie history. I've yet to watch Episode III, and don't think much of I or II (which is why I'm not all that motivated to see III).
I enjoyed The Force Awakens for what it was, and admit it has a few issues. The story line was essentially a rehash of the original trilogy condensed into one movie, Rey's ability to use the force so quickly was quite far fetched even if she is the daughter of Luke or some other Jedi. Still, it was a good watch.
Rogue One was a bit of a surprise for me. The initial announcement trailer did next to nothing for me, and subsequent trailers were essentially the same. I didn't plan on seeing it in theaters, however as the release date grew closer I started to get a bit more interested. I ended up seeing it and enjoyed it overall. A number of elements irked me quite a bit, but thankfully they didn't detract from the movie as a whole. I'd probably put it in my top 3 or 4 Star Wars movies (Empire, A New Hope, Rogue). Rogue could easily be replaced by Return of the Jedi or even The Force Awakens, but I really need to give TFA another watch if I'm going to rank it.
I go about once a year. I saw Rogue One earlier this year, and The Force Awakens before that. Price isn't a huge issue since I live in a small town with reasonable prices. I have no interest in super hero movies, which have dominated the big screen for some time now. Star Wars is the one franchise I will very likely watch in theaters though.
