The Idea

  • Watch and discuss movies together (kinda like a book club)
  • "Crowd source" recommendations for not-entirely-new films (IE, older than a year or so, let's say)
  • Aim for generally bettering or curating our film "diet"

How it will work (at least at first)

  • 1 film a month
  • First, a post to take nominations/suggestions
    • Post any film you want to watch, or have heard good things about, or recommend to everyone else
  • Second, a post to take votes on the nominations
  • And then we watch and discuss the winner

First round will start next month (July)

Please share any thoughts/feedback, though we'll likely run this at least once first before making any changes, just to feel it out

    This is cool! I actually tried attending one of the past live watch parties but was in the middle of doing something as well so couldn’t really actively participate. A scheduled discussion thread at a set time sounds great.

      Yea a scheduled discussion thread could work well. Don't know what times works for people ... but if it's pinned and always posted at the same time or the same date of the month, I'd imagine it would work well.
