Need Forum for Outlandish Science Ideas

In summary, the conversation discusses the search for a science forum that deals with controversial and outlandish theories and ideas. Suggestions are made for forums like Cosmoquest and Crank.net, as well as the use of Youtube for posting animations and receiving feedback from experts. The speaker also expresses gratitude towards Physics Forums and its members for helpful responses in the past.

Hello,
Does anyone know of a science forum that deals with far out, controversial theories & ideas? This would be similar to the science fiction forum here at PF but may even be more outlandish, however postings would receive serious consideration.
I have made some simple animations that I would like to post on such a forum & receive serious feedback from electronics engineers, physics experts, or anyone with some good insight.
I would also like to thank Physics Forums- its members & staff for the helpful responses you have made to my postings over the last few years. It is appreciated.

Those two criteria contradict each other. There are plenty of places where the first is applied though.

[late edit]
Such fora are, however, often populated with interested laypeople, who may be good enough to identify what's wrong with an "outlandish" idea.

If you are interested in the most far out, you can find lots of unusual physics ideas at http://www.crank.net. The physics list is at http://www.crank.net/physics.html. It's not really a forum, but it might provide an appropriate link somewhere.

If you have in mind more serious, but not mainstream, ideas, then one can always post on Youtube. I think Youtube would be a natural for animation videos. Some time ago I posted here about an interesting QM animation that someone put on Youtube. Youtube obviously has a huge amount of traffic. So if I wanted to post an animation I had done, I would start there, and then link to it from other sites.
