Yes

no, its a cool idea, just isnt to practical. I think a lot of people on here live in LA, so maybe that would be a good turn out

I was hoping we could do movie nights for each of the 15 films.

it means that i really liked the idea of the lebowski movie night. it also means that i like cinephile's avatar. that's all.

it looked like u called me stupid, and were about to call cinephile the same, and then backed out.

I think it just means he thinks your av looks stupid, P.

In which case, he's wrong.

But you fucking KNOW I would be down with the Lebowski-fest

Lebowski's cool, maybe a Coen fest?

Maybe I'm shooting too high, but with a DVD player on my computer I'd more than definitely be there in the chats now.  So I can watch with you guys and not be like cyber sex "What's happening now?  Oohh sweet."

Maybe like...

Fargo
Big Lebowski
O Brother

Those were just the first Coen films to come to mind.

Or should we stick to Lebowski?

I dont really know what is going on, but I like the Coen Brothers idea.  That would be good.

Here at Xixax we've had movie festivals where we'd set dates and all watch the movie at the same time and chat about it using the chat icon located upstairs.

It's fun, though I haven't been in a chat with more than 2 people since the Shining chat which didn't have a great turn out anyway...

Like I said before, I'm so in when the next one(s) would be.

'Cause I'm feeling nice, a history of Xixax's festivals:

Sydney Hard Eight (http://www.xixax.com/viewtopic.php?t=2252)
Boogie Nights (http://www.xixax.com/viewtopic.php?t=2261)
Magnolia (http://www.xixax.com/viewtopic.php?t=2278)
Punch-Drunk Love (http://www.xixax.com/viewtopic.php?t=2287)
Donnie Darko (http://www.xixax.com/viewtopic.php?t=3413)
Horror (http://www.xixax.com/viewtopic.php?t=3853)
Reservoir Dogs & Pulp Fiction (http://www.xixax.com/viewtopic.php?t=3896&start=0&postdays=0&postorder=asc)

Some have been more successful than others.  I love Donnie Darko, but not as much as Conan's 10th anniversary, so I couldn't attend.  Magnolia and the other PTA stuff were the most popular.  The QT fest suffered from a lack of publicity.  Hopefully that'll change in the future.

im saying show movies made by members not screen moives make a dead line for the movies to be done 2-3 years and then show them name by members.

I personally feel a Dekapenticon fest might take too long.

I love movies, and 2 movies for 7 nights seems like it would take a while.
