I've considered this too, but I don't think the movie group
would have to be deleted, it could just be closed to new postings
and have a note on the front page directing new discussion to 
the main group.

In a sense, the movie group would become a 'Read Only' with
new discussion directed to the main group. That would allow 
us access to old discussions which are sometimes needed for
reference. 

Can the moderators confirm that this is true?
