It&#8217;s not as good as &#8220;What a comment stream would look like in real life,&#8221; but it&#8217;s another hit from College Humor nonetheless. Who needs the Hollywood writers anyway.

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.flixster.com"><img src="http://cache0.techcrunch.com/wp-content/flixsterlogo.jpg" style="float: left" class="shot" /></a><a href="http://www.techcrunch.com/2007/02/01/flixster-growing-like-a-weed/">Fast growing</a> movie-centered social network <a href="http://www.flixster.com/">Flixster</a> has been making the rounds with potential buyers, we&#8217;ve heard from multiple sources. And IAC may have submitted a letter of intent in the last week or so.</p>
<p>The San Francisco based company has had a meteoric rise since launching in January 2006, although Comscore suggests growth has stagnated over the last few months &#8211; worldwide unique visitors went from just over 12 million in May 2007 to just 8.4 million in September, a drop of about 30%.  <a href="http://siteanalytics.compete.com/flixster.com/">Compete</a> and <a href="http://www.alexa.com/data/details/traffic_details?site0=flixster.com&amp;y=r&amp;z=3&amp;h=300&amp;w=610&amp;range=1y&amp;size=Medium&amp;url=winamp.com">Alexa</a> show a similar decline beginning in May, but with a subsequent full recovery and then some.</p>
<p>IAC&#8217;s offer, we&#8217;ve heard, may value the company at $150 million. However, IAC has a tendency to do complicated investment deals where they get a minority or majority stake in the business v. an outright acquisition. They own a majority stake <a href="http://www.collegehumor.com">College Humor</a>/<a href="http://www.vimeo.com">Vimeo</a> (same parent company) and <a href="http://www.garagegames.com">GarageGames</a>, and a minority stake (rumored at 25%) in <a href="http://www.ilike.com">iLike</a> through an <a href="http://www.techcrunch.com/2006/12/19/scoop-ticketmaster-poors-133-million-into-ilike/">investment by subsidiary Ticketmaster</a>.</p>
<p>Flixster may not be very interested in a partial buyout, but interest from IAC could lead others to enter a bid, too. More on this as it develops.</p>
