I voted for "High Altitude Treasures." However, to be honest I think I'd prefer something that sounds more like the original line it's alluding to, but still gets the point across.

Like maybe, "High Altitude Thoughts." "Thoughts" sounds a little more like "f*cks" than "treasures" does, because they're both just one syllable, a soft vowel surrounded by (mostly) hard consonants.

But also, the forum IS full of high-altitude thoughts, in the sense that these threads represent lofty thinking and writing by a bunch of insightful intelligent people.

I also like The Oracle's Vault, but I chose the other one thinking that if anyone besides TOoP/Bruce ever contributes to this forum, that title won't be accurate.

I reconfigured the poll Katherine. You should be able to go back in and change your answer if you want to.  :)

I think the Rewound becoming Revisited might be a good idea.

I voted other.
I think it should be called the Promised Land!
Because the Children of IMDB made an Exodus to escape the oppression of the the Evil Trolls!  ;D

I voted for "High Altitude Treasures" but would prefer "Water Walkin' Wonderland" (WWW).  Is that too over the top!  :o   ;)   :D

Well, I voted "High Altitude Thoughts." 

What I wonder is, is the emphasis of this particular forum more the archival quality, or more something else?  I hope the name reflects whatever the answer to that is.

I think some of the names are good, but I stuck with "IMDb Remarkable Writings Revisited" because I like keeping the reference to IMDb in the title of the forum.  Otherwise, many of those names could easily describe the Open Forum.

"Writings" could be changed to "Threads" to make it a tad shorter.  :)
