Movie Club
 
I was watching an episode of Corner Gas, and got the idea, we should have a movie club. Every week, we pick one movie. The members who own or can rent the movie, watch it at some point in the week, then we exchange our view points and ideas on it.

I figure this could be something to make the place a bit more active.

*****************************Info***************** **************

Selected Movies

All movie suggestions sent in, will be placed in a hat, and drawn randomly. The movie that has the most votes, by posted date, will be the movie of the week. All movie titles will be held for future movie club weeks for voting. If your movie does not make the top list, it will be carried over to the next week. All movies which have been watched and discussed, will be posted on this page.

Rules

There are no actual rules for this, with one exception. Do not use this thread for rambling and nonsense if you are not participating that specific week. Try to keep all Movie Club talk, relevant to the movie at hand, and voting.

Also, do not contact me asking why the movie you suggested is not on here this week.


Now, let's all have some fun.

Previous Movies

The Funhouse (1981)

Disease 02-27-2008 06:37 PM

well since it's your idea, pick the first movie....

It should be something not at the cinema as it will be easier for others to acess where ever they are.


Admit it, you were watching Opera!

Freak 02-27-2008 06:38 PM

Sounds like a good idea.Count me in.

I'd say let's pick a movie on either Saturday or Sunday. That way, it gives a full week to go round trip.

Plus, we need to see how many people are going to participate.

fortunato 02-27-2008 07:37 PM

awesome idea.

i'm definitely in.

_____V_____ 02-27-2008 07:38 PM

crabapple 02-28-2008 05:12 AM

knife_fight 02-28-2008 06:37 AM

Count me way in.

VampiricClown 02-28-2008 06:55 AM

Alright, we will pick a movie on Sunday.

And I think I have figured out a way to pick movies.

Fridays, I will post a short list of 3 movies on here. You guys vote on them. The movie that gets the most votes, will be the one we watch that week. Sound good?

Perfect idea, maybe we could even PM you with suggestions once in a while.

Deadline is 10 PM EST tonight.

newb 02-28-2008 08:01 AM

Nice going Vamp....thats what we need around here...fresh ideas.

I shall also try to participate.

missmacabre 02-28-2008 08:59 AM

Good ol' Corner Gas. That's a good episode.

I'm in, for the most part. If I can find it online, I will watch it. I'm saving my money for school and stuff.

Doc Faustus 02-28-2008 09:11 AM

My funds are limited, but my enthusiasm is not and I have a decent collection. I'll chime in when I can.

VampiricClown 02-28-2008 10:49 AM

Start sending me some suggestions.

Posher778 02-28-2008 03:08 PM

I'm in, as long as it's easy to get.

That's the thing. Not all members will be able to participate every week. Some weeks, even I may not be able to participate. It is all in how the voting falls, and what suggestions I get.

I know. I meant i'll do it whenever I can. And you already know what my suggestions would be (probably)

PM them to me.

VampiricClown 02-28-2008 05:59 PM

Deadline is here.

The results in a moment.

VampiricClown 02-28-2008 06:09 PM

Time to vote.

Vote one time only. Be sure you have your vote in before midnight on Saturday.

Pitch Black (2000)

The Funhouse (1981)

Donnie Darko (2001)

All results were random. I put all of the suggestions in a hat and drew them so that it would be fair. If the movie/movies you suggested are not here, they will be in votes at later times. I am keeping them all logged down.

The movie with the most votes at midnight on Saturday, will be crowned. If you do not own the movie, try to rent or purchase it if possible.

chaibill 02-28-2008 06:17 PM

Well I am in as long as it is not the new House of Wax (POS). i vote for Funhouse haven't seen it all i think i caught a little on TV once, but I always meant to see it after I read the book from Dean Koontz he based the book on the movie which is the opposite of the norm. And I have seen the other two.

fortunato 02-28-2008 06:20 PM

i guess i'll go with funhouse as i don't really like the other two.

VampiricClown 02-28-2008 06:29 PM

The Funhouse +1

Freak 02-28-2008 06:42 PM

I vote for Donnie Darko.

GorePhobia 02-28-2008 10:11 PM

I will go with Pitch Black just because it has been awhile since I seen it and I don't own Funhouse nor do I have the money to go rent it at this moment in time.

Disease 02-29-2008 05:30 AM

Hmm, I'll go with Funhouse, I don't think I've seen it, And I'm not watching Pitch Black again.

And as for Donnie Darko, well, I could watch it anytime, but I'd rather see something I havent.

Despare 02-29-2008 05:37 AM

I'll vote for Funhouse because I've watched the other two (love em' both) fairly recently.

VampiricClown 02-29-2008 06:36 AM

Now we have....

The Funhouse (4)

Pitch Black (1)

Donnie Darko (1)

knife_fight 02-29-2008 07:47 AM

Funhouse definitely, mainly b/c I've got it at home on dvd and don't have the others. :D

newb 02-29-2008 08:03 AM

Funhouse


i've been meaning to buy it for a while now....this will give me an excuse.

GorePhobia 02-29-2008 09:17 AM

Damn and I really wanted to participate in this one too.

:(

missmacabre 02-29-2008 09:31 AM

I want Donnie Darko. We'd have sooo many discussion opportunities with that one.
Never heard of Fun House. Hope I can find it somewhere.

There's a new edition of the Funhouse (new-ish anyway) so it shouldn't be too hard to find. I think they released it when the remake of TCM came out. the Tobe Hooper connection and whatnot......

VampiricClown 02-29-2008 10:28 AM

The Funhouse (6)

Pitch Black (1)

Donnie Darko (2)

@Gore
Don't feel too bad man. I may not be participating either. The only one of the three movies I pulled, that I own, is Donnie Darko.

pinkfloyd45769 02-29-2008 10:32 AM

If its not too late to vote, i'll go with Pitch Black. I actually like that movie!
