SLIGHT RE-ARRANGEMENT
I've had a slight rethink to the eway I've set out the movie boards from when I initially started this place. At first iI considered it easier by splitting it into genre categories, but in hindsight; there are so many cross-categories that it could've got confusing. Therefore I've split it up much more efficiently into eras I.E. years, the times these films were released. It also reduces the board amount - but in a good way.
Now they follow as:-
The Golden Age - Anything up to and including films from the 1960's The Silver Age - 1970s and 1980s films The New Era - Films from the 90's to early noughties up to 2010. The Modern era - films from 2010 - 2020+
I'm hoping this will make things much earier to navigate and to use, whilst keeping the boards trim.

Slight EnhancmentsSo the repeating Icon on a default PB background was bugging me: So I've made a little change (Whilst still trying to keepit optimized), found a background I like, re-coloured it, overlayed the stiped PB blue background for a slightly more thematic look. Speaking of thematic I'm changing the way I do the banners, I'm still customizing them but in a more stylaized way. Some of the movie posters have very bright colours that look out of place with our forum colours, so as you can see by our current banner I'm doing it in a more layered way. Enjoy the slight new enhancements! Reguards, Groundhog Phil (Site Owner)

Reguards, Groundhog Phil (Site Owner) Slight changes again as I was unhappy with the consistancy of the blue, the blue saved too dark both with the background and banner style. If you look at how it now is compared with the picture quoted above - you'll see it's much more truer to the original concept. That is all. Reguards, Groundhog Phil (Site Owner)

Something's coming...
Not just for August either, but for the site in general
Just had a brainwave in the bathroom (Funnily enough where I get all my best ideas) and have thought of a major new feature for the message board! - but I will have to work on it, and time is short.
Stay tuned, because if I can impliment this, it will be from the beginning of August!...

August DOUBLE FEATURE!!I wasn't going to do another "theme month" for the time being after the non-starter of the last one, however; if I had gone ahead then it would've been a Disney month. Many weeks later I'ver reconsidered but I have decided to make it more of a general ki's movies themed month where you can talk about all your favourite childhood movies in our special AUGUST KID@S MOVIE board! The other thing.. The one I said was not just for August either is... For a reward of an extra 25 post count (As a starting basis depending on how it goes) you an choose to write official reviews of films you like via our Template Guide. You can also rate them stars if you so wish using the following key words (Without the code tag, and gaps between the letters): 5 s t a r 4 s t a r 3 s t a r 2 s t a r 1 s t a r 0 s t a r Your review will also feature on our front portal page, so it's be really nice to see some different reviews/reviews by different members. Please feel free to enoy the new feature of this message board and the August Kid's film month! Reguards, Groundhog Phil(Site Owner)

Small Theme updates
Just a very quick, short one. In that, both the other themes "Light Mode" and "IMDb" have both been updated to be more optimized. Previously Light mode was only half finished in general with both, it's just things like making text and links more vissible and general improvements o the themes.

Have you picked your pumpkin and chosen your Halloween costume, grabbed your snacks and treats for the Trick or Treaters and grabbed plenty of toilet rolls and eggs to go tepee someone's house? becuse pretty soon at 2 Hours until Closing Time it's gonna be...
SPOOKTOBER!!
And you know what that means.. With a sp00ky version of the default theme, horror films will be the speciality of the month of October, but we will of course have the regular, non-horror films mixed in as well. We look forward to finding out if your a slasher fan or a zombie fan (Or maybe both?), Guts n Gore or left to the imagination? Vampires Vs Werewolves, Dracular Vs The Munmmy and annything else you can imagine!
Join in the fun and give yourself a sppoky version of your name for the month if you wish!
There's a full moon rising at the begging of October (Well, here at 2HuCT at least!) so sharpen your stakes at both ends, keep plenty of garlic and holy water aside as well as a few silver bullets, because you never know what might crawl out of the woodwork - or the ground!
MWUAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!

Awesome!! I live for Halloween! I wait all year and it's a really long wait, lol. When it finally comes around I don't want it to end and try to prolong it as long as possible. I don't think my wife shares the same love for it that I do. She likes it, but, I really , REALLY like it, lol.
Anyway, yeah, this is great! I'll definitely participate in Spooktober. Cool that you're doing it and I look forward to it and seeing the theme. We do something similar on my forum and I basically watch horror movies all year long, so that's covered, lol. Sounds like fun! Can't wait!

Thanks Endo,
It won't be anything too extravagent like at Horrors Online as I would never want to encroach on that. Mine will be much simpler considering you have a whole message board, boards, sub-boards dedicated to it all year round! It's also why I'm giving the themed montha a rest-bite for this month, just to let the forum beathe for a little while.
