Seconding what others have said, in that to me the ideal outcome is that the genre threads stick around for chatter about older movies/upcoming releases while encouraging folks to make threads for individual movies as they come out. Some megathreads manage it decently enough, others don't (to name a few, I feel like most MCU movies get a thread these days while I can't recall the last time I saw a thread for an animated movie).

Sir Kodiak posted:These are exactly the sort of thing I'd love to see threads for even if they don't get a ton of posts. I generally come at these movies late and it frequently turns out that the only discussion for them happened in, like, GenChat. It would be great if smaller films got a thread when they released that could start seeing life again once they hit streaming, make critics' lists, get awards nominations, etc. Yea there's an attitude 'round the forums that a thread isn't worth it if it doesn't get a lot of posts but for my money's worth even if an individual movie thread gets a single page of posts it can still be worthwhile. Especially since it can invite discussion from folks outside of a megathread. Like for example horror isn't really my jam so I never look at that megathread, but if there's a thread for a specific horror movie I might take a look at it. I'm sure I'm not alone in that regard!

Do you go to one subforum, see what threads have new posts, and then go to another subforum, repeat, and on and on? Going back a page or two sometimes if some threads fell back? Are you usually just looking for new threads? I only use bookmarks for places like Games where there are a million active threads going on. For a place like CineD that has far less traffic and far fewer threads I just manually look at the place. Makes it easy to notice new threads too.
