WOLFBOARD FILM CLUB: Xteenuh's turn

[Lemon Bloody Cola]

Ok, so I'm really enjoying our indepth Skins discussions. Got me thinking "how can we have more of those? On subject matter superior to the current series of Skins?"

We've had a book club on here, and like most attempts to set up things like that, it died on its arse. But well, I'm part of a film club here in Bradders it's a good social occasion that really leads to experincing films you wouldn't otherwise. Gave me the idea to try an internet version.

Just like a book club really, people could sign up then everyone would have a chance to select a film. One a week, then we'd DISCUSS on a thread. Good idea? Let me know if you're interested. It takes less effort to watch a film than does read a whole book. We could find torrent/streaming links to the film in question to make it easier.

I'd be up for it

[husbandwifeheroin]

So would I

[lastgoodbye]

Great idea! I am up for it, too

[frenger]

That would be cool, actually. I'd love to make it happen.

[Rhiflect]

I may not be reliable for watching films, but i'd give it a go!

[Xteenuh]

I love films! I'LL JOIN! (I may drift in and out between weeks though considering I've been quite a busy bee this school year).

[mimicry]

Me too! This sounds great.

[jadeface]

i'm in. I will download whatever we need to watch if i don't already have it. Naughty.

[izzyplastic]

groovy

[stephy]

sounds awesome. i'll try to watch as many of the films as possible!

[yvonne]

I'd love to give it a go

[victorinox]

i'm in! let's watch 27 dresses!
...or maybe not, but i am in.

[Lemon Bloody Cola]

So how are we going to select the films? Can I choose the first one?
Perhaps I could write a list of all the people who've shown interest here, in order of reply.. and people get to choose the weekly film IN THAT ORDER. Does that sound fair?

(of course anyone who wants to opt out of the selection process and still be involved can)

[helwin tins]

i approve of this idea, having been there at it's conception.
also, i can't tell if i have awesome or awful taste in films.

You're like the three kings, three wisemen and the donkey all in one. ESPECIALLY the donkey.

[Jazzy Jeff]

I like this idea. But I also don't know what my film taste is like. Some people say I like great films, some people say the same films are absolutely terrible. But I can think of some brilliant/horrible classics that everyone should watch.

Yeah! I know exactly what I'm going to pick first, too. It's probably crap but I don't care, it makes me cry the whole way through.

Are you going to have a set day each week when that week's film title gets posted?

[jadeface]

Hmm, okay I'm going to have a think about a film that maybe we might not have all seen. Not necessarily a favourite or anything, just something different?
BUT YES I LIKE THIS IDEA I AM EXCITED.
SAD.
