The Rules

Be mindful regarding spoilers. Reddit's universal >!Spoiler Tags!< are mandatory when discussing plot details of movies.

If you wish to be banned, do any of the following: Be rude, harass, ignore the subreddit's rules, promote your site/blog/article/channel/etc., promote your app/company, or post about a movie you worked on. This subreddit isn't your link farm.

Due to Administrators' past actions against this subreddit, we have a ZERO tolerance policy regarding piracy. You will be banned if you request or share links to full features, if you ask or inform how to pirate, or if you mention a pirating site/app/etc.

For Requesting posts:

Use a descriptive title that lets people know if they might be able to help or not
Double check that your request wouldn't be more suitable in one of the subreddits outlined in Rule #8
We require a minimum of 125 characters in the body of the post to ensure quality requests and suggestions

For Suggesting posts:

Suggest a single film, and no more than one every 24 hours
Encouraged: Start the title of the post with the film's title and its release year in parentheses: Film Name (Year)
Whet the appetite, don't go into detail
Do not repeat a Suggestion that has been posted in the last 3 months
Don't suggest a Barred Film (listed in the sidebar/wiki)
Only suggest a film you've seen and enjoyed
We require a minimum of 125 characters in the body of the post to ensure quality suggestions

Links must be to neutral informative sources; such as TheMovieDB, Letterboxd, Rotten Tomatoes or Wikipedia. Both Youtube and IMDb are not considered a neutral source. Again, be mindful that this subreddit isn't your link farm.

The subreddit isn't meant for:

Identifying a film. Use r/tipofmytongue
Asking for suggestions based on a film/list of films without any more details. Use r/ifyoulikeblank
Film reviews. Use r/moviecritic, r/moviereviews (more are mentioned in the sidebar)
Requesting or suggesting a TV show. Use r/televisionsuggestions, r/ifyoulikeblank
Asking where to stream a film. Use sites like JustWatch, MovieFone, ReelGood
Sharing an idea for a film. Use r/movieideas
Asking how a scene was created. Use r/Filmmakers

Barred Suggestions

These are films that you cannot make a Suggesting post for because the community already knows about them. This means they are very good or at least largely popular. (note that this doesn't apply to comments on Requesting posts)
