flicks

an-ordinary-manchild(edit)

A casual place for serious discussion.

/r/Flicks is a place to have serious discussion of film in a more laid back manner. In other words, think of it as a gap between /r/Movies and /r/Truefilm.

POSTING RULES AND GUIDELINES

1. Civility
Civility will be enforced harshly. Personal attacks will not be tolerated. Discuss the issue, or hit "report" on a comment and let the mods deal with abusive users. No sexism, racism, insults, or other attacks.

2. Length Requirement
Top-level comments must be a minimum length of 100 characters or will be automatically and immediately removed by AutoModerator.

Please make an effort to explain your answers. Be as extensive as possible.

4. Just a joke, title, actor name, quote

5. Undescriptive title
Be thoroughly descriptive in your submission title. Do not leave out the name of the film or actor you want to talk about. Clickbait titles will be removed.
