    Actually not that was what I got the first time but when i tried to explain what I think you mean then it all goes wrong. :)

    So i will set up 2 forum categories one for movies and one for television and I fix url rewrite or something so movies.domainname.com will go to the movie category and television.domainname.com will go to the television category?

    It can be done, I don't think you comprehend what I'm posting, though.

    There is a mod, I do not remember what it is called, but a lot of websites are using it now. It gives you AJAX tabs on your forum to essentially have an entire forum index for more than one topic. You can see what I mean on forums like NamePros and WickedFire.

    One can be for movies and one can be for TV. Maybe you can even integrate the sub-domain idea with this mod.

    Yes that mod I am aware of. But if I am going to create this site I think I will wait until vB4 is released.

    This is true - and brainstorming is always an excellent idea before actually doing anything.
