Starting a new thread so I can control polls and edit the first post.

The Process:
Member picked at random once every week.
Said member has 24 hours to nominate five movies of any genre, from any year. Should their time expire, a new member will be chosen.
Poll will then be made and all movie club members will have 24 additional hours to vote for the movie they would most like to see out of the five.
Everyone watches the movie with the most votes over the next 7 days.
Discuss the movie within those 7 days.

Rules:
No movies that are currently in the cinema. All movies must already be released on home video so they can be acquired easily.
~~Mike~~ Froggy isn't allowed to vote or nominate. Ever.
Naturally there will be people who finish the movie before others. Any discussion on the movie must be put in spoiler tags.

I only watched Dunkirk a couple of weeks ago actually so I'm good for that.

Add me please, need to watch Dunkirk so it's a perfect excuse to do so.

I think half of Kenneth Branagh's scenes are just him looking worriedly at the sky.

Harry Styles was very good in this. Thought the ending was a bit daft though.

This was much better than 1917 imo. Small, very specific grievance which I only noticed because I grew up in Weymouth:

That rotating glass observation tower was only built in 2012.

And the black circle in the middle of the pic?

Shame.

That went well.

Kaizero · « **Reply #13 on:** Tuesday 31 March 2020, 10:13:33 PM »

Poor leader.

Spin the wheel!

I'll join in then forget that I joined and never watch any of the films

Froggy · « **Reply #17 on:** Tuesday 31 March 2020, 10:39:24 PM »

Troll was the only one to actual discuss the movie.

Decky · « **Reply #18 on:** Tuesday 31 March 2020, 10:39:48 PM »

A week might be too long to keep the thread active. I mean if a lot of us are in lockdown we're looking s*** to do anyway.
