Can we do a movie club?

I'm watching the Shining right now and I just thought it would be cool it we just talked about a certain movie. What do you guys think?

I'd think we should pick films that are out on DVD , so we don't require trips to the theater.

I agree with sean's idea. Perhaps we should do a weekly movie night? Chat in the IRC or something and leave it to ... ehem, however you choose... to find the movie of the week.

A more traditional movie club would also be interesting, but I think the above could be a lot of fun.

As for the above's shameless plug, you forgot to link your thread.

I don't think I could keep up with anything scheduled. I could do a traditional movie club I think.

It would be nice if some of the Last Movie Seen films got a follow up viewing report from other OTers and it sounds fun if it's something people can dip into rather than have to commit to.

But yeah it's a great idea.

Maybe one film can be selected each week for people to watch and discuss?

How do we choose the movies?

I'm thinking nomination and voting.

Tried to watch it once, it was hard to watch with the endless sex scenes.

Hey, I have an idea. How about "Star Wars"? That looks pretty cool. :p

I'm definitely interested.

I like the IRC idea, bkev.

Your obsession with Tommy Wiseau is really starting to concern me.

What about Argo ? ;)

I should have known we'd just spend our time half-seriously debating what film to watch...

Cannibal Holocaust?

Perhaps rolling a little less regimented. Like, a list of four movies for the month, giving some leeway for availability (Netflix streaming rules!) and situation (I usually have to watch movies my beloved finds acceptable). 

So maybe March's movies could be

  • Cannibal Holocaust
  • Argo
  • The Room
  • Disney's Hercules

 

Watch what you can, contribute as the month goes on.

Justa  thought
