Movie night 5/10! EDIT: ON HOLD

[whiskytraitorfirefight]

Edit 4/27: Between the two current player and game plots going on, this plan is on hold until early June!

So movies! Ginia's birthday is coming up on the 7th, but because she feels it's too self-serving to announce it, she's throwing a movie night at the rec center on the 10th instead. This will be open to whoever wants to come watch movies or hang out at the rec center.

So questions for everyone!

1) What movies are currently at the Rec Center and/or what movies are people willing to loan?
2) What movies should be played?

I'm shooting for a good mix of action, comedy, drama, and stuff good for kids. Nothing that would fourth wall anyone in Luceti either. Anything rated R will be played later in the evening.

Also there will be food and snacks and drinks and stuff like that too. Possibly potluck style if people are interested! Also there's the pool table and some decks of cards can be brought over if people want to play poker and the like.

Current suggestions
Rocky
Aliens
Robin Hood: Men in Tights
Independence Day
Jurassic Park
The Lion King
Shaun of the Dead
Hot Fuzz
Kill Bill 1 and 2
Indiana Jones
Rocky Horror Picture Show
Ghostbusters
Fight Club
The Matrix
The Nightmare Before Christmas
The Adventures of Robin Hood
The Princess Bride

Woo! Sounds fun! I will be throwing both my boys at that when it comes up.

As for movie ideas: Indiana Jones, Rocky Horror, Ghost Busters, Fight Club, Matrix.

[whiskytraitorfirefight]

Awesome!

And those are great ideas! Adding to the list.

Hi, just letting you know this party is currently on hold! Between all the plots going on, Ginia wouldn't IC throw a movie night.

[cajunspice]

Understandable, but hope it goes ahead at a later date :)

[whiskytraitorfirefight]

I'm shooting for something in June! Maybe combining it with a barbecue or something. But there will be a movie night at some point.

MOVIE NIIIIIIGHT!!

[whiskytraitorfirefight]

ALL THE MOVIES

[chilibites]

PARODIED ROCKY TRAINING MONTAGE IN CANON, clearly, we need to watch the original.

[chilibites]

That's perfectly understandable!

[cilantro]

omg movies yes please

Even though Cilan's more familiar with...um, Pokemon versions of real world movies (like "Yamask of the Opera" instead of "Phantom of the Opera" and "Gone with the Pokemon" instead of "Gone with the Wind" as in universe examples), he would be thrilled to come to movie night... (He'll even bring food, if so desired?)

[whiskytraitorfirefight]

...If there's a way for Pokemon versions of movies (I don't think DVDs show up in the item shop?) to show up I would so play them.

Food help would be awesome! I plan on having Ginia make an IC announcement before the 10th so they can hash food stuff out?

[cilantro]

Same here, though I have no idea if it is possible or not. (At least not without him requesting them and getting them through the points earned from missions, I think? Maybe someday I will figure this stuff out...)

But yes, that sounds great! Cilan will try to help out in any way he can o/

[dunkinchili]

CILAN, CILAN, LET'S WATCH ROCKY TOGETHER!!

Gotta bring things full circle!

[cilantro]

YES...and then wonder why that training montage looks oddly familiar--I MEAN UH

but no seriously if the Rocky movie did exist in Pokemon world, what if Cilan purposely re-enacted that montage when training with his brother because he's a dork that saw that movie

[dunkinchili]

YES.

There's no reason to believe it doesn't exist and I honestly wouldn't be surprised if he did. So adorable~!

[cilantro]

Ahh gotcha! No worries though, I'll be happy to wait until there's a better time for it ^_^

[whiskytraitorfirefight]

I'm thinking early June! A nice way to relax after the draft and it could also be a barbecue party. But thanks for your understanding!

Kurt does have a large collection of DVDs that his previous self bough with mission points. There isn't really a definitive list, but it does include a lot of classic movies, especially Errol Flynn works and other films with swashbuckling action, as well as cheesey action movies.

[whiskytraitorfirefight]

Good to know!

If he has The Adventures of Robin Hood, we could do that and Robin Hood: Men in Tights back-to-back.

..Also does he have The Princess Bride?

[niceguypose]

Sounds like a safe bet!

...And yes, I did already have him reference it in the past so I'm sure he has a copy of it!

[whiskytraitorfirefight]

Okay! I'll add them to the list as possibilities. Still trying to get the actual list worked out.
