Yeah, I figured there'd be a conflict with football, especially doing it on Sunday. I originally was going to do 1 night a week but couldn't decide on such a small list! Hopefully you can make a few or at least join in some of the posts afterwards. :)

That's a good question - I actually need to figure that piece out. The conversation I had with myself:

--- You should figure out a Live Video Chat!

--- Great!! I think I've done it with Google + Hangouts before.

--- But not everyone may know how to use Google Hangouts!

--- Well, let's do Skype, then!

--- Can Skype even DO that??

--- Dunno; it MUST, right?

...

So I'm not sold on the Chat function yet -I need to look at options - Maybe Google Hangout would be a better thing to do - You're young and Internet-savvy; any recommendations?

What if I've recently seen one of the movies? I'm thinking of Only Lovers Left Alive, just saw it last week.
1. Hopefully a few of them will be streaming on Netflix. If not, I know that YouTube typically has quite a few if you look. I'll try to do research before each session. :) Personally, I think what I'm going to do is "Up" my Netflix subscription to three DVD's for this month and next; I think that'll be cheapest for me.

2. DVR it! ;)

3. Yeah, I know. I didn't want to steal Fridays or Saturdays though

4. Whether it's Skype or another Messanger tool, I want to find something with chat functionality so it's OK if you don't have a webcam.

And of COURSE come and comment if you've seen the movies - At any time! I'm still trying to suss out how the "Live Viewing" will work - Whether or not video chat is truly a good idea (or if folks will get annoyed if other folks are talking). At a minimum, I want to settle on a Messanger App or site, and bring the discussion on here too.

Well, I REALLY hope that you can join in a bunch of these - I love talking Dr. Who with you and think it would be a blast to talk horror during and after we've just watched something. :danger:

Awesome! I might be able to move the weekday showings to 7:00 EST if that helps; I just need enough time to get home from work, set up, and etc...

Good news is that if we choose to use Skype as a live chat, it's totally free and you can use it even if you don't have a Webcam.

So if you guys have a better recommendation for a Live Chat (potential Video Chat but not required) during the movie, let me know - I only have experience with Skype and Google+ but I'm sure there are other options out there.
