@hermitgirl I'll probably add to this later since I want to get a few things down quickly before doing errands before I forget.
Having a machinima recommendation thread pinned might be a bad idea if anyone can come in and post to it. It will turn into a self promotion thread. Kind of defeats the purpose. I tried promoting SimsFilmFest and the machinimas on here one season but it all kept getting lost in the self promotion stuff and wasn't getting views. I kind of gave up.
If we are honest about things, certain types of machinima appeal to different age groups. I remember one SimsFilmFest season when Twilight and The Vampire Diaries were popular. Almost everything entered revolved around vampires. I honestly wanted to scream. However, that was what was popular with the festivals dominate age group at the time. It is what it is. I'm not going to say people shouldn't make this or that. If that is what is popular with their peers and especially if it inspires them, they should make it.
