A lot of movies come out at the same time here and there nowadays though, so I guess I can see the ones I can and sit the others out.

Originally Posted By DAR It looks like there's fifteen of us so far. If you know of anyone else who wants to join have them sign up. Here's an idea of how we could do the two a month. Feel free to add your own ideas I'm up for anything. But one way I thought we could try is to divide up the films we watch into different eras. Let's say from the 1920's up to 1969. Then the second film could be from 1970 to today. For me personally I'm going to try to pick films that I've never seen or haven't seen in awhile. So while I love Star Wars, Pirates, LOTR, Shawshank Redemption or if you can see it on TBS or TNT it probably won't be amongst my picks. Though you may see a certain Dr. Jones show up
Originally Posted By Lisann22 I agree with your views on picking. I'd like to see stuff that people don't necessary think about anymore, some classics or movies that had some kind of social impact. Those are always good to talk about.
Originally Posted By 999HAUNTS Do you mean classics like REAR WINDOW or CITIZEN KANE? I haven't seen these in years and would love to have a reason to!
