The Official TLS Movie Night Thread

[Roger]

Sounds good, thanks! When will we be able to submit suggestions for next month's movie night?

That answer kinda has to wait until after the results of this poll, I should think.

 

[fancy]

Depending on the results of the poll, it'll be around early November!

 

[Jairus]

Oh ok, makes sense. I went ahead and cast my vote for it, so we'll see what happens.

 

[Carlie]

Technically November is Thanksgiving for some of us so it does it qualify for major Holiday season.

american ethnocentrism smh

Movie night was fun! I’ll try to get on earlier next time. My time zone makes it more like Movie Afternoon & Early Evening

Speaking of Muricagiving, my brother and I had an odd tradition many moons ago to watch AC the day before or day of Thanksgiving. It was so random.

 

[fancy]

if ACC doesn't win this time so help me

 

[Val]

Sure I'll help you

 

[Rydeen]

The question remains... subbed or dubbed?

 

[Erotic Materia]

The question remains... subbed or dubbed?

Hm... I just realized something. I always, always watch shows with subs.

But I've only ever watched AC with dubs.

I VOTE SUBS.

 

[fancy]

subbed ?

 

[Jairus]

That could work. At least then we'd have some translation for the kanji on the screen, which SE never bothered to change for the English release.

 

[Rydeen]

Subbed is better, but but dubbed is easier to make fun of when tipsy.

 

[fancy]

At least 7 people better show their face on the 30th

Well, hell, looks like we'll be having another Movie Night this month!!! The holiday we'd technically be celebrating is Thanksgiving, but the theme of 'Thanks' is a little too specific and 'slaughtering of indigenous peoples' kills the mood so we'll make this a freebie.

Nominate what you like!

Lone Wolf and Cub: Baby Cart at the River Styx (1972)

(You didn't see any Gogol-related films here, only Lone Wolf and Cub)

 

[Jairus]

The Princess Bride - and if it doesn't hit the top 5, I have only one word to say: "INCONCEIVABLE!"

Planes, Trains, and Automobiles - fits the Thanksgiving/holiday season, and although I don't swear myself (outside my story, that is), Steve Martin's use of like twenty F-bombs in under five minutes is classic and hilarious!

Spaceballs - need I say more?

Robin Hood: Men in Tights - again, no explanation needed. Dancing merry men in tights abound.

The Matrix - the first (and best, imo) in the trilogy

Tremors - classic monster movie that's more funny than scary. Kevin Bacon and Fred Ward play off each other perfectly

Die Hard - one of the best action movies of all time

 

[Val]

THE ROCK (1996)

No The Rock, no party

 

[fancy]
