I'll have to see, but I may be able to take this up.

Oh yeah, we are not fans of light shades of red. In fact, we want to sink any boat they're on, for some reason.

Hey, I would be happy to do this, I even have an idea on what movies to watch!

viewtopic.php?f=22&t=51075

You would just have to post the movies you've seen, and the movie that no one's seen or the one that has the least amount of people who have seen it would be out next film! Sound good?

by **Zorlin** » Wed Dec 02, 2009 7:21 am UTC

Alright, I'm back-ish. Sorry about my near-total disappearance, I've had a lot going on. I'll be setting up SCAR scripts to handle streaming in my absence if I can't make a session.

Nominations will begin again once sje gives the word.

by **sje46** » Thu Dec 03, 2009 11:08 pm UTC

Well, I have a month off from school starting about the 20th, during which time I could probably torrent movies. I guess.

by **Zorlin** » Mon Jan 04, 2010 7:29 am UTC

Okay; here's the plan.

We're going to have a one-time movie night on Wednesday, with two sessions, one at 6am UTC and one at 6pm UTC. This is mainly just to gauge interest and get everything rolling again, so there won't be voting or nominations and such for now. The movie? Red vs Blue: Reconstruction. We might watch some YouTube shorts or do Audiosurf or Half Life after each session, depending on how bored I am/how much time I have.

From then on, depending on what you guys need, we'll work out a time for the regularly weekly sessions. It'll probably end up being Wednesday 6pm/6am, give or take Zorlin Time (and subject to change). As for movie selection, at the moment two options seem viable - A) Everyone /nominates/ movies via thread posts, movie with the most nominations is the one watched, or B) Everyone nominates and I choose after being blackmailed and persuaded by everyone who wants their movie shown.

Since I'm not the most reliable person, things'll be set up such that hopefully I'm not needed to start and host every session.

B could actually work, although I'm a little wary of it. Thoughts?

by **sje46** » Mon Jan 04, 2010 6:48 pm UTC

Sure.

EDIT: is noon and 7 PM better for you, zorlin?

by **sje46** » Tue Jan 05, 2010 3:07 am UTC

I'm thinking 9PM and 2AM UTC. This is 4PM and 9PM New York time, and 1PM and 6PM california time. Good? A little later? Tell me.

by **Zorlin** » Tue Jan 05, 2010 5:19 pm UTC

Kay, works for me. I may not be able to do Session 1 once school and such starts but I'll probably be working something out.

by **NecklaceOfShadow** » Thu Jan 07, 2010 10:48 pm UTC

Welll, movie night was fairly enjoyable...

Will the next few movie nights be set up in the same fashion as this latest one or will we go back to the old way of picking movies?

Will there even be a new one anytime soon?

At the moment it looks like we'll be simply nominating which movies we want, and the "nominations" will act as votes too. On the day, the movie selection will be decided in a 90% fair fashion by myself, and that'll be the pick.

So... I guess post which movies you'd like to see.

by **Vieto** » Thu Jan 07, 2010 11:41 pm UTC

The Matrix

pity there weren't any sequels.

by **NecklaceOfShadow** » Fri Jan 08, 2010 12:13 am UTC

I recommend Joe Versus the Volcano, The Naked Gun, and Airplane!

EDIT: Spaceballs! How could I have forgotten that?

by **Zorlin** » Fri Jan 08, 2010 4:32 am UTC

I recommend Anchorman, Airplane! and Accepted, since I have them but haven't seen the first two.

by **sempernemo** » Fri Jan 08, 2010 6:08 am UTC

Gack, I had to miss RvB because of homework.

Also, has Spaceballs been watched yet? If not, I nominate that. And probably a few more once I think of them.

by **Zorlin** » Fri Jan 08, 2010 7:06 am UTC

Oh yeah guys - feel free to edit your recommendations as you wish. I guess that's the official name for it now? Hah.

by **NecklaceOfShadow** » Tue Jan 12, 2010 8:01 pm UTC

So, will the latest movie night be tomorrow or has it been put off again?

by **Zorlin** » Tue Jan 12, 2010 9:43 pm UTC

NecklaceOfShadow wrote:So, will the latest movie night be tomorrow or has it been put off again?

If all goes well, yes it should be. Last time Session 1 went well and Session 2 kinda died because there was no-one there. You should probably recommend some movies you want to see.

by **sje46** » Wed Jan 13, 2010 8:26 am UTC

Land Before Time, 9PM UTC, 9PM EST

Tomorrow (wednesday, the 13th)

by **sje46** » Wed Jan 13, 2010 9:25 pm UTC

Movie starting now.

http://xkcd.raptorswithhats.com

Come on in!

by **NecklaceOfShadow** » Thu Jan 14, 2010 2:07 am UTC

Oy.

Movie's starting at the link in the post above.

Come on in!

by **Zorlin** » Thu Jan 14, 2010 3:23 am UTC

A pretty successful movie night. We watched Land Before Time and peak was 13 viewers I think. :shock:

Thanks everyone, hopefully see you next week.

by **NecklaceOfShadow** » Sat Jan 16, 2010 11:26 pm UTC

I recommend Joe Versus the Volcano, The Naked Gun, Spaceballs, The Wedding Singer, and Airplane! for this week's movie night.

by **Zorlin** » Sun Jan 17, 2010 9:31 am UTC

I recommend Iron Giant and Airplane!

by **sje46** » Sun Jan 17, 2010 9:32 am UTC

I want to see....

something good.

Maybe The Shining.

by **Max2009** » Sun Jan 17, 2010 9:35 am UTC

Not in the mood for Stephen King.
I second Iron Giant.

by **Vieto** » Sun Jan 17, 2010 2:14 pm UTC

I second Space Balls.

by **Zorlin** » Wed Jan 20, 2010 9:20 pm UTC

Currently happenings! Movie: Iron Giant.

We're about 10 minutes in, but you're welcome to jump in if you like. Session 2 starts at 9pm EST today.

by **NecklaceOfShadow** » Thu Jan 21, 2010 2:09 am UTC

The Iron Giant is starting.

Come on in. And stuff.

by **Zorlin** » Fri Jan 22, 2010 12:28 am UTC

Thanks everyone for a massively successful movie night last night.

On a heavier note, though:
Sorry for any inconvenience that it causes, but there are some changes happening to the structure of movie night.

Session "2" (9pm EST) is now becoming Session 1, and the 9pm UTC session is moving to Saturdays at 9pm UTC, as I cannot reliably host movie night when I am not there.

It will proceed as before, with both sessions having the same movie/content.

If someone else is able to reliably host movie night and has upload bandwidth of at least 5mbit, please let me know.

Wait.

If we have to move one of the sessions over, why don't we switch over both of them? It's a bit unfair that one group gets to see the movie a few days before the other.

Also...

I stand by all of my previous nominations.

by **Zorlin** » Mon Jan 25, 2010 5:57 pm UTC

Okay - both sessions now take place on Saturday, 9PM UTC and 9PM EST.

If it sucks like that, I'm sorry. Karaoke night will stay on Thursday.

by **NecklaceOfShadow** » Mon Feb 01, 2010 12:57 am UTC

So...

Yeah.

Nominations are still being taken for Movie Night.

May I ask why this is so?
