I just finished a draft for a weekly watch party schedule. We could put You’re Next up first for Sinister Saturday.
Unless I’m deathly busy with work, I watch at least one movie a day (and usually more than that). It’s almost always been a self-absorbed activity. I’d like to use the Watch Party Megathread to build community by sharing those viewing experiences.
I might be the only person watching most of the time. That’s okay. It’s an if you build it, they will come sort of thing.
Here is what I’m thinking.
WATCH PARTY SCHEDULE
Sci-fi/Fantasy Sunday
Marvel-ous Multiverse Monday
Tarantino Tuesday (with other cult classics)
Washington Wednesday (political movie/documentary/TV episode)
Mystery/Thriller Thursday
Found Footage Friday
Sinister Saturday
So a nice cycle of sci-fi/fantasy, superhero or comic book movies, cult classics that lead with Tarantino, political stuff, murder mysteries, found-footage-style movies, and horror.
With the exception of Tarantino Tuesday, every other day will be as likely to pull out a new release as an old classic. And obv I reserve the right to put in a comedy or love story as soon as we get a sequel to Happiest Season.
It’s about psychos who terrorize a dinner party except one of the guests is a crazy Australian chick who grew up on a survivalist camp and she goes HAM. It’s pretty violent. I think it was filmed on a budget of $1,000.
Did you see The Hunt? A somewhat similar tale where a group of rich elites hunt poor people for sport and find one of them far better prepared than they realized.
Are all the swords on the show made by someone affiliated with the show or do they just buy them from some catalog and decorate them with gold and fake jewels and shit?
My man Ice T has been delivering one great role after another.
In all seriousness, I’m guessing Surviving the Game was not so good (?), but can say I’ve seen The Hunt three or four times and would gladly watch it again.
Surviving the Game was defintely one of those bad but entertaining movies, Gary Busey plays his usually crazy dude role and you get some real bad action scenes.
Sweet, do they let any of the bigshot main actors keep their weapons or does the blacksmith guy get them all? I have a half finished bottle of the white walker whiskey, I had to buy that when I heard about it. Whats the D&D beer? Ommegang brewery in the US made a bunch of GoT themed beers, I’m pretty sure I have all of them.
If you make a day or once every two week thing for 2021 Oscar movies (obviously speculation until the nominations are announced), I’d probably join more often than not.
I usually like to see all of the movies nominated for Picture/Director/Actor/Actress/Screenplay before the show.
One Night In Miami is on Amazon Prime this Friday and I still need to see Trial of the Chicago 7. Wouldn’t hate rewatching the few I have seen either.
A serial killer who targets and kills single mothers becomes obsessed and stalks one potential victim after she rejects him.
“Hide”
A Hispanic woman hired to babysit an autistic little girl for the evening goes to great lengths to protect her charge from a home invasion involving two masked figures leading to a brutal cat-and-mouse, kill-or-be-killed situation.
“Tutorial”
Shot entirely from the point of view of multiple video and web cameras, a young video blogger finds herself stalked by an intruder in her own house.
