It’s been a fairly chaotic week in the comments section. So much so that I’ve had to permanently ban a few users from commenting.
I hate to do it, but when enough readers personally complain to me, there is no alternative. The chaos was a little too much and I want this site to continue being a spirited, lively but respectful place to discuss film.
The site has tripled its readership since last year, so constant moderation is an inevitable must. World of Reel is a place to talk about movies and not to insult each other’s mothers … As I’ve stated in the past, please keep discussions civil, so that everyone feels like they can have their say. Those who breach these simple guidelines will be given a suspension that may turn permanent.
Danny Boyle tells Vanity Fair that AI was used to animate old photographs—which means Margaret Thatcher and the Kray brothers—and to create mice running around the newsroom.
