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

SURVEY FOR NOVEMBER'S FILMS!! Pick your faves of the bunch and the top five (or six!) will be shown on the 30th of November.
Oh, and one other thing...
For December movie night, I'm going to be travelling on the last Saturday that month, so it'll be held on the 21st instead (the Saturday before) and because it's the last movie night of the year, we'll have a 'Game Night' the very next day!! We'll likely do the usual shit (Jackbox) as that's easiest, but I'm always up for suggestions
So, with that in mind, go ahead and om nom nom for December's movie night after picking November's. The theme, obvs, is Holiday/Christmas vibes but as usual I'll pretty much put anything that gets suggested in the survey
arigato!!!

So, we had three clear winners with a four-way tie between Millennium Actress, Airplane! A Clockwork Orange, and Tremors.
Imma do somethin' crazy and try to squeeze in all 7 (technically 8??? i guess??) onto the schedule I reckon. lmao. So this is what it would look like!!

You'll notice that this event is starting a little later than usual (a whole hour, to be exact), and possibly earlier than norma. But that's because the day after we gonna play some gaaaaaaaaames and I'll be hanging out on VC most of the day where you can ask each other personal questions about your lives. Yay!!
