Header post updated with the list of participants

Picking first is going to be the worst. If you pick a bad movie, people are going to lose interest in the club right away. I can't take that pressure.

true. Best to let one of the movie nerds go first.

Someone explain to Skitch that "Season 4 of 30 Rock" doesn't count as one "film."

star wars

[Mecca]

my participation depends on whether jorge will be selecting Divorcing Jack or not

[Jorge]

I will most likely not be choosing Divorcing Jack

[Rangi Guy]

I like the idea of this....

I like the idea of this....

it really is a great idea

Whenever there's active promotion on the part of somebody else, whenever I see somebody all dolled up for a fancy photograph and someone's handing out flyers or whenever there's active promotion for something like that, as an imposition on my day, I hate all those people and I want them to fail. I have a visceral reaction to advertising and promotion. There's just something about salesmanship that grates on me on a very base level and I react very negatively towards it. I want those people to suffer and I want their enterprises to fail.

[Jorge]

I'm fine with either approach. It could be "here's a movie I love, let's talk about it" or "let's all dive in to this new thing together". Any criteria you want to use when it comes your time to pick is fine, really.

I definitely plan on picking some 4-hour movies to fuck with people.

[The Argonaut]

I will join.
Dev tried to start something similar a while back with Lolita, but it didn't take off. The audience participation aspect of this new attempt should be helpful to encourage participation and success.

[BurtReynolds]

I hope Freddy Got Fingered is streaming somewhere.

I hope Freddy Got Fingered is streaming somewhere.

i've never seen that one

[Jorge]

I never saw Dev's Lolita thread. Maybe that was during the period when I was away from RM? Let's give this concept another shot.

[bada]

I'll play though I'll probably just watch the movie and read everyone else's thoughts.
