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.
