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

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 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.

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.

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