I know that published movies are removed, but can we remove rejected/canceled submissions from there too? There's no point in them staying, IMO. It'll look cleaner.

Published movies are removed? From where?

I think removing the cancelled/rejected submissions from the list is a bad idea, because it would diminish the introductory value of the front page. It gives good information now: some movies are indeed cancelled/rejected.

I hardly ever view the front page, but I agree with aqfaq. The published ones are... published. But, for example, Cheetahmen II fanboys, they will register for the forums and say "Where the fuck did cheetahmen go?! Did it get published or what? did it disappear?" Keeping it the way it is lets them see what is up with the movie quickly, and in a non-confusing way.

But the problem is that they'll stay there forever. There could be 50 submissions over the next 6 months, they all get published, and then all we'd see is some fricken 6 month old movie that got canceled and nobody cares about anymore.

Or perhaps the site shows the newest submissions in the last time period, which means that they would eventually vanish regardless of wether or not every movie submitted afterwards was published or not. Do the research. Haste makes waste.
