Look at the numbers for this board or Film general or whatever movie specific board is overrun right now.
Now imagination the weight those numbers could add as part of a pitch to sell advertising space.
So why not keep the boards open to monetise those hits?
I can only think of one reason: The nature of the content was damaging the IMDB brand, devaluing the space.
I guess given the choice of implementing a proper solution or closing the whole thing they went for the fast, simple solution.
Can't really blame them.

I agree. The boards here are almost as aggressively unwelcoming as 4chan so I guess IMDb/Amazon decided to sink them.

I'd most likely be for this option. Not sure I'll make the jump to reddit, but who knows. Been coming here off and on for 13 years for the forums Guess I could tryout reddit if a bulk of users from this board move over there.
This kind of sucks
According to me, yes. I am the person it's usually according to when I'm talking.

I'd personally prefer Reddit but board transitions rarely work.

I can't see a board transition working for this one, but I'd be willing to give it a shot.

Reddit.
However, IMDb is not gonna close the message boards.
Neclord is a legendary spam bot and can not be a mod at all.
I always tell the truth, even when I lie.

What about a Yuku board? Those are free.
I don't use ignore, because I don't need a safe space
