CAN'T MAKE IT?

No worries! Join in the conversation here!

WANT TO WATCH SOMETHING ELSE?

Watch/post about other Frankenstein-themed movies through the week - Let's expand the discussion!


Other movies I am considering: Frankenstein's Army (2013) & Frankenweenie (2012)

I'll see if I can make it for Young Frankenstein. I've seen Frank and Bride too recently to sit through it, but I'd post on them. I haven't seen Frankenweenie or Franks Army, I'd be up to watch those.

Oh my god Young Frankenstein is one of my favorites!

I should be around, so will do my best to get involved. ::cool::

I'll also recommend you guys to check out the 1910 version of Frankenstein, its like 10mins long so you got no excuse. ::stick out tongue::

That ones great. Really creepy for a short silent movie

I'm going to pick 3 other Frankenstein movies, as I don't have any of those listed. ::embarrassment::

This is on my Halloween playlist, so I'll watch it on 9/16.

I'll try to watch something Frankenstein related over the next week.

Frankenstein and Bride Of Frankenstein are my favorites so I watch them quite frequently. Actually, all the Universal Frankenstein series gets regular watching from me so I may pass on one of them.

I just watched Frankenhooker last weekend which I probably hadn't seen in 15 years.

It's probably been 5 or 6 years since I've seen the Hammer Frankenstein series though so maybe I'll rewatch one of those.

I also haven't seen Mary Shelly's Frankenstein with Bob De Niro in probably 15 years so that might be an option for me too.

Ah, decisions, decisions...

I'm gonna try and make an effort to watch Frankenstein and Bride

I have all 3 of those Frankenstein films and I'm totally down for watching and discussing them on here :)

I had a feeling you would be ::wink::

Awesome!

I really adore Frankenweenie - I think that it was overlooked the year it came out (probably because of the silly name); I really can't wait to watch it again.

As for Frankenstein's Army, well, I won't say it's a good movie per se, but I enjoyed the HECK out of it. ::wink::



Me too! Essentially grew up with it but it's been a while since I've seen it. Can't wait for the rewatch.

Iiiiiiiiiiii ain't got no booooooooodyyyyy...


Awesome! I'll check it out tonight - Thanks!


Yay! I'm loving that folks are going to watch other Frankenstein-related films!



Sweet! What else is on your playlist?



I've never seen Frankenhooker - Tell me about it! Tell me! Tell me! Tell me!! :danger:



YAY!

Awesome. ::cool::

I'm so pumped, guys!! This is totally making my week!

Frankenweenie is a Tim Burton film; been in my queue a long time.

Watched a little of the opening of Frank Army with a buddy, and he hit the hyperspace button, and I couldn't blame him. Love the concept, but the opening wasn't promising.

I have always been a huge Frankenstein fan; in fact, the novel is actually one of my favorites of any genre. I will definitely try to make those viewings, if I am not too busy. I can definitely make the Young Frankenstein one and I will try to make the others. I still have not replaced my Young Frankenstein VHS, so it looks like I will be watching it via VHS. I am not sure how popular it is, but another one I really loved was Curse of Frankenstein (1957). It is classic Hammer and actually one of my favorite Frankenstein adaptations.

Hello Ghouls and Boys! I have the DVD in the XBox, it's PRIMED and I'm getting ready for Frankenstein Movie #1 - The iconic 1931 version.

(I'm currently troubleshooting voice/video)


When I think of iconic Monsters, I absolutely think of the '31 Frankenstein but it's been SO LONG since I've seen the movie that I'm not sure if my previous viewing counts any more.

Needless to say, I'm excited to kick this off with a BANG and a HOWL.

Hope you can join in the fun!

I will come say hello. ::cool::

::smile::

My first time using a video chat so bear with me if my technical ignorance shines through. ::wink::

Sorry I'm late! Wasn't expecting to be at my friend's house that long!

I'm watching

I keep getting bounced out of the live chat! ::sad::

Love that movie!!

Come join in the live chat!

I can't, I don't have a webcam ::sad::

You don't need one. :)

You don't need one, and you can just type to chat if you want! I keep getting booted out of there though. ::sad::

I didn't see any way of typing chat. I can hear and see you and Villain, but that's all. There's nowhere for me to type. And, yes, Wilmington is me.

All I see is video on and volume on

Yeah, it's not clear- Look for the little Chat button under the video boxes. You click that and then you can type at the very bottom.

I don't have those buttons

Sad face - Post a screenshot?

Actually, Villain is muted, can't get sound on his

I do!

Yeah, Villain is muted so he's just typing. I tried to screenshare but it won't work. :(

This is making me want to go out and buy a webcam!

LOL! What if you unmute yourself and talk?

I keep getting caught in some weird limbo when the room loads.... I can see and hear everything but no one can hear me. ::embarrassment::

I'll have one more go and if I can get it working I'm gonna give up for tonight and give it another try next time.

Let me try that

Sounds good! Glad you were able to make it at all. Hope my talking didn't bug you. :)


HF - What browser are you using?

Nope, didn't work. I'll take a picture of the screen with my phone and I'll message it to you

Cool - Sorry for the trouble! This is new to me too! Can you at least hear us?

Look at your cell phone

Oh crap, it's across the room, one sec. ::stick out tongue::
