JoBlo.com was founded in 1998. We remain one of the longest standing movie fansites in the world and we pride ourselves on that, as well as our extreme focus on movies and not much else (well, maybe TV sometimes). To that end, most recently, some of you may have noticed that, to the best of our ability, we’ve deleted some posts from our COMMENTS sections below our articles. When folks went overboard, we banned them. Why did we do so? Very simple. JoBlo.com is a MOVIE FANSITE and that's our focus. We aren't interested in religion or politics and ask that our readers respect the rules of our house and continue to discuss and debate all things movies, but as soon as we notice any debates that are veering off into worldwide affairs or shit that we don't allow (such as bullying), we will be deleting your comments (without warning) and if you continue, BAN you for life.
Listen up folks. Things out there aren't great. People flock to our pages to get away from that. We aren't here to debate world politics. If you wanna do that, there are hundreds of thousands (if not millions) of other blogs/websites for that sort of thing.
JoBlo.com is not one of those sites.
And finally, it goes without saying but fuck it, we're gonna say it anyway: NO HATE SPEECH of any kind or ABUSE toward any other member of the site (or staff) will be tolerated. Your comments will be deleted immediately and so will your account.
Basically, don't be an asshole, talk movies and everything should be okay for you.
The purpose of our COMMENTS section is, and has ALWAYS been, to serve as a way for our users to communicate with each other about whatever the article’s about, but in a constructive, friendly way.
Likewise, any racist, abusive comments should be reported to myself via my email address – chrisbumbray@joblo.com and we will check them out immediately!
Thanks for understanding, continue to be safe in your spot in the world today and let’s get back to what this site is really all about….MOVIES!
