It's pretty straightforward. We settle on a film to watch, watch it separately over a period of time and then come here and talk about it.

Who's in?

That's a pretty neat idea actually - there are so many I need to see but so many more I've never even considered Smile

I'm in, if I can get the time.

Good idea.

Seems like an interesting idea.

Well, I have a suggestion.
It's a 2015 film called "Circle".

Not sure how much I want to reveal about it. It's thought-provoking and its somewhat similar to 12 Angry Men(in that its very heavily dialogue based and almost the entire thing is filmed on one set alone).

I can only watch movies which are overdubbed with Australian accents.
I'd imagine that goes for NewZoolanders also?

I think we all agree I am NEVER to be allowed to select the movie.

Bwahahahaha!!!

Are we still doing this? Let's decide on what film we'll watch and then watch it over a period of, say, two weeks.

I might do it.  As long as the film doesn't look too shit.


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.
