After seeing this image on Coonce's gallery, and then looking up that Screened.com is currently owned by Whiskey Media's CEO, it looks like this is the name of the new movie/tv website Snide and everyone else has been hinting about. 
 
Also it looks like its coming this month according to this interview from Whiskey Media's founders, along with 2 other sites by the end of the year!
 
Anyone else can't wait??

I'm not all that interested in it. Discussing movies is not really my thing.

I'll definitely hit up Screened.com -- but I've still got my fingers crossed that Whiskey Media unite the profiles for all their sites. I'd post so much more on the other sites if my GiantBomb username and profile carried over.

Pretty interesting, but not really for me. Movie discussion really is not my kind of thing.

I am not really interested in it. I have to admit that I don't really find the other Whiskey Media sites compelling.

I was thinking that they should do a a movie based site.  I'll probably participate for a while, and then not so much when it becomes too popular.  Which it likely will, because there are a lot of people who like to talk about movies on the internet.  Even more so than video games.  I'm not saying movies are more popular than video games, even though that might be the case, but I am saying that people who are avid movie fans like to talk about movies more so than ppl who like vids like to.  Example:  How many ppl know who Roger Ebert is?  That guy gets a lot of hits on his blog.  Now how many ppl know Jeff Gerstmann?
 
I personally like my communities small, personable, and niche.

That will probably wind up my second most visited site right behind GB.  "Screened"...I like it.

They are trying to build up a complete network of sites - remains to be seen what it can offer that IMDB doesn't though.

Holy crap. They better get to hiring some more engineers. I love Whiskey sites but they already aren't the most reliable sites in the world.

Even if that's technically possible, wouldn't that constitute a violation of the privacy rules? Because I explicitly agreed to the rules of giantbomb.com only, not any other website. You'd have do agree to all of them, and they probably differ in some details.

Forums that you can browse without having to be logged in; a site which doesn't look like a complete sloppy mess...
 
Anyway, I'm kind of interested, but it's been a while since I've actually watched any movies.

I hope it's tv and movies. I could really get 1000 points easy on some Lost!

Awesome. A Whois lookup on screened.com shows the registrant as none other than Shelby Bonnie. So yeah, Screened.com . You heard it here first.

Good luck to Whiskey Media and whoever they have running the site. In fact that is now the next piece of the puzzle we need to figure out, who exactly will be running and managing it?

Finally! I find myself talking about movies on OT much more than video games here on Giant Bomb so this'll be great for me.

Yeah to be honest I'm suprised they haven't already done that. Screened is the name then? Not the greatest choice of name but still pretty cool, I can't wait.

I haven't really checked out Anime Vice or Comic Vine, but Giant Bomb and Tested seem to have a similar attitude as far as their editorial goes. If this new website has the same attitude, it would be awesome. I think that we've all known that the movie website was coming for a while. I'm wondering what the other websites will be about. Maybe television? Maybe? And?

This will be like IMDB but with a working forum. This is a good thing. I really like Tested and am looking forward to Screened, I wonder if it will deal with television or just movies?

This will be IMDB with a working forum AND it won't look disorganized as all hell. The thing I love most about Whiskey Media designs is how precise they are. IMDB is a great site with a lot of info on it, but it looks terrible and is a bit annoying to navigate if you don't know what you're looking for.

Mmm, I hear you brother, but I don't know how likely that will be, or how hard would it be to rewrite all that code, I'm sure they have bigger things on their plate at the moment, how would the distribution of Wiki points work?

Dave has said that a universal login is coming at some point. At this point I'd guess it's going to be a nightmare to sort out, with so many different users on so many different websites, so good luck to them when they do it.

Yep. As far as I can understand the boat has sailed for this possibility and it's absolutely gutting that they didn't consider it in advance.
