Subreddit Rules
- This Has to Violate Some Sort of Rule: Our [full list of rules is here](https://www.reddit.com/r/movies/wiki/index#wiki_what_is_allowed_in_.2Fr.2Fmovies.3F)
- /r/Movies is about “Movie News and Discussion of Major Motion Pictures.”
- As you can see, our front-page is an aggregate for movie news and discussion. We like to keep it that way.
- No Intentional Antagonism or Negative Attention Whoring: Just don't be a dick, it's pretty easy.
- Discuss the subject of the thread, not the users.
- Don't make comments just for negative attention. This also applies to any complaints of controversial subjects such as woke/SJW issues, minorities being in movies, etc.
- Put quotes in quotation marks, we don't know every quote ever spoken.
- https://www.reddit.com/r/movies/wiki/index#wiki_e._incivility
- No Spam & Self-promotion - Same Source Posts: The site-wide definition of spam is when a user has more than 20% of their submissions coming from one source.
- If your username is the same as the website or YT channel you're trying to promote - you will be banned and your website blacklisted. Sharing Letterboxd accounts is not allowed either.

- https://www.reddit.com/r/movies/wiki/index#wiki_b._grey_area_image_posts
- No Ambiguous/Misleading/Inaccurate Information or Clickbait in the Submission Title: Any type of submission that doesn't include the actual subject in the submission title. We really don't like 'click to find out' titles.
- For upcoming movie news, we take misinformation seriously. "In development" does not mean a movie is coming out. "In talks" or "in negotiations" does not mean "This person is working on this project."
- We want actual news; official announcements, not investigative journalism.
- https://www.reddit.com/r/movies/wiki/index#wiki_a._submission_titles
- No Extraneous Comic Book Movie Submissions: Anything that isn't official, hard-lined news about comic book movies/Superhero movies will be removed
- featurettes, fan art, parodies, etc.
- That means nothing.
- Please read the [wiki](https://www.reddit.com/r/movies/wiki/index#wiki_18._comic_book_movie_information_-_conditionally_prohibited) for further information
- No Repost or Discussion Threads of New Releases: [Light 'em up](https://i.imgur.com/JGBcbrY.gif)
- This rule also applies if there is an official discussion of the same movie stickied on the front page.
- Official discussions will be your go-to place for reviews/reactions/discussion of that movie and applies for 4 weeks after the U.S. release date.
- No Spoilers: Intentional or careless spoiling of a plot, true or false, without a spoiler bar (example >!here!<) can result in a ban.
- https://www.reddit.com/r/movies/wiki/index/#wiki_o._spoilers
- No Encouraging Piracy: Encouraging illegally pirated content by suggestion, instruction, and/or direct links. This includes variations of the "Aye matey." Stop. It's not 2012 any more.
- https://www.reddit.com/r/movies/wiki/index/#wiki_i._piracy
- Rules on Posting of Scenes/Clips: Maximum of 1 clip submission per user per day.
- Minimum of 60 seconds, in HD.
- Title must include title of movie, year of release, description/context of scene, and director.
- Title must not include any personal opinions/subjective thoughts.
- Clip is subject to regular circlejerk, comic book movie, and repost rules. Movies must be at least a year old to be eligible for clip posting.
- Not mandatory but ideally upload the scenes directly to reddit, as opposed to a Youtube link.
- AI Generated Garbage: If you're using AI and trying to pretend it's a real user - you'll be banned.
- No Shitposts aka OP is 11 beers in and rambling: Use this report when a post reads like a sloppy brainfart diary entry.
- Scuttlebutt and Canards: Keep celebrity personal life drama, gossip, rumors, tabloids, and all related garbage in /r/entertainment or /r/popculturechat
- If someone dies? It's allowed. If someone gets hurt on set? Allowed. If someone is fired from a movie? Allowed. If someone is arrested? Only if it directly affects a movie. If Celeb X says Celeb Y is a super jerkface? gtfo
- No Complaints of a Movie OP has Not Completed.: Did someone make a submission like "I'm 15 minutes into Heat and this movie sucks?" Well well well, out the airlock
- Political Ranting Unrelated to the Movie at Hand: We are not a politics or political commentary sub. Obviously some movies relate to and include politics, but if you're here to simply blather on about political issues unrelated to the subject of the post, it's grounds for removing.
