The MB Film Club
I've been reading a lot of back issues of Cahiers du Cinema lately and find it really interesting how big a deal film clubs used to be. There seems to be an influx of members who are really passionate about movies recently, and given the success of some of the album clubs - this just makes sense.
I think the best way to figure out how we'll do this would be to discuss at first, rather than have me make all the rules. I think we should decide two things. Should we select a film weekly or biweekly? Will we choose the films through a nomination/voting process or my preferred technique where all the regulars take turns to choose a film? We'll try to keep the films Netflix friendly so there aren't any problems with availability.

I will try my damnedest to be a part of this. And I'd say bi-weekly. Gives people a week to find time for the film, then another week to find time to give their thoughts.

I'm in I've always loved watching movies I agree with Goofle on the bi-weekly thing.
|
I'm in. Also agree on the biweekly method, and I think we should do a rotation of who gets to select films.
|
Go in order of comments? James first.
|
Bi weekly sounds good, although I may not be able to always take part (internet connection issues)
I'm not sure how I feel about keeping it to Netflix. A lot of really essential stuff is not on there, and probably never will be on there. Also, Netflix's selection varies by country (ie. Jack **** in canada), which would make it even more difficult |
I'd love to join in. Also agree with taking turns choosing films rather than voting.

$5 a month, and it works like a charm. I'd love to join the club, but I really can't commit the time right now. Sorry, James. Maybe down the road. |
There's free ways to change your VPN (Hola is what I use) but they do have a bad rep. I don't really care about that.

Nevertheless, netflix is a bit limiting.
95% of the films that I'd suggest aren't on netflix (american or otherwise) We could link to the film on itunes, although most people will probably get the film via.... other means... anyway. |
