  • Film Club!

    So, as Siggie tries to put together a team of readers for her book club, perhaps we can also form a Film Club for those who are less intelligent. I'm kidding, of course, but this could easier for those are otherwise busy because watching a film takes much less time and effort. It's also quite accessible because of Netflix and other forms of renting.

    The goal is to pick a film collecively, we will all have a week or so to watch it, then come back in here and discuss it together. This is a great opportunity to come across films you otherwise would never bother to, and it allows us to participate in a group discussion.

    Perhaps, in the future, we could do a tie-in. If Siggie suggests a novel that has been adapted into a film, we could all read the source material first. I really doubt that would happen though because, let's face it, it's not going to happen.

    So, is anybody interested? If enough people are, we can start discussing what films to watch. Please, don't start recommending films just yet! It's best to see who is in so far, then begin discuss what kind of films to watch (genres, filmmakers) and take it from there.

    Who's in?

    Re: Film Club!

    I'm quite stupid to not have realized this earlier. So, instead of picking random films and decided upon them, I think it's best to come up with a list of members who are in, then we'll go in order and have each person recommend a film. We'll all go watch that film and come back within a week. If, for whatever reason, a person needs to recommend a film and he/she is not present, the next person can go ahead and give us a recommendation. You will always be allowed to sit out rounds, so if you're not around, we'll just go to the next person for a recommendation.

    For now, we can discuss what films we will be recommending, roughly. It's best to choose films none of us have seen, unless you really want to recommend a terrific film you have seen for others to go and watch it as well. I think it's best to recommend hidden gems or anything you have been dying to see.

    Who's in?

              Stop begging for more. This is enough. Ingrates should not be encouraged.

                Okay, so should I pick first? I guess we can go in order of members, starting with who signed up first. So, that's me, arteom, yourself, then ara. If anybody comes in later, they can just watch the film and chime in with their thoughts.

                I just hope you guys keep checking back to see what the films are. That's why I want more members, so if some of you guys forget or are too busy, we'll still have a lot of discussion.

                If I'm going first, I'll have to think about this for a while.

                    I haven't see that yet and have been meaning to. I'll go for that if you haven't seen it either.
