EoFF Cinema January Special! - There's a poll in my bucket, dear Leeza

Last time was really fun! 90% of the thread said MEAN GIRLS! Not many people showed up, but I think we all enjoyed it.


If you all wanna try it again I think we can decide on a movie by next week, and then watch it the week after. The best thing to watch in a group like this is probably a comedy or the cheesiest movie we can think of.

If you've never done anything like this before, what we do is we all watch the same movie at the same time and talk about it while we're watching it in a chat room or an MSN conversation or something. It's a lot of fun!


NOW SHOWING in #eoffcinema:

Monty Python and the Holy Grail
Saturday January 24th, 3PM Central US time.

For those of you who don't know how to get there:
1. Click on Community in the handy little toolbar.
2. Go to Java Chat
3. Once you are in #eoff type "/join #eoffcinema"

Little Miss Sunshine is <3.

I was watching a movie the other day and while I was watching it, I was like "OMG this'd be the perfect EoFF Cinema film." Sadly, I don't remember what it was. :(

Last time, I think people just suggested Mean Girls with no intention of watching it to spite those who did want to see the EoFF movie! :p Even though Mean Girls isn't a great movie, I still had a good time watching it with you fine folk so I'd be down for it again.

...unless you assholes choose another chick flick.

...yes Mean Girls is a chick flick.

...shut up yes it really is!

I thought the intent of EoFF Cinema wasn't really to watch the movie but more to talk about and possibly mock the movie in chat. :p So it doesn't have to be the "best movie ever" just has to be fun to discuss. :D

I thought Little Miss Sunshine was hysterical. A good movie to watch with other people.

I would've participated last time if it had been done in a thread rather than chat. I know know, these types of things are MUCH better suited for chats, but in chatrooms, there's that uncomfortable pressure to be saying stuff all the time. I don't like that. :greenie:

From personal experience the Shrek films are fun to discuss while watching them. I'd consider participating if one of them was the chosen film.

Or either Toy Story.

I would have participated last time if I had gotten the day right. x)

Little Miss Sunshine is great, so is The Grail. But I would like seeing something I haven't seen yet.

I think No Chick Flicks Twice in a Row isn't a terrible rule since most of the people here are male anyway xD

In anatomy maybe...

We need a comedy or and action flick. Mean girls WAS fun. BUt you silly foreign kids were like "oh how is that funny i don't get the context." and me and jessweeee were like.. oh it's an american thing.

Everyone can associate with explosions!

Pineapple Express iyam.

You should watch Breakfast on Pluto. Everyone likes a story starring Cillian Murphy being a sweet Irish transvestite looking for love and his mother, who looks like Mitzi Gaynor! :bigsmile:

"It wasn't fairy liquid he was playing with down there! No, it wasn't fairy liquid at all..."

Here is the first :30 seconds. It sucks you in. It'll have you at hello! And one of my favorite scenes, as well, I've included.

I saw this on the plane and it was pretty good! This or something similar to this - something funny, stupid, but with awesome action too - would be perfect.

Is Tropic Thunder out yet? Lots of hijinks and hilarity and stuff blowing up. Robert Downey Jr's performance is reason enough to watch that movie. :p

A Scanner Darkly, please.

In Bruges.

I second Tropic Thunder since I haven't seen it. I've been wanting to it for awhile now, so this would give me a good excuse to go rent it with someone else's credit card. xD

It's a very quiet sort of film (although I did bust out laughing a few times) and a bit too dark and moody to go over well when you're watching it with a group of people.

WELL FINE MIRIEL >:\

Tropic Thunder would probably be a good movie for this. Comedies are almost always the best choice for something along like this because it has a wider range of options for everyone.

Forgetting Sarah Marshall would be another good one so long as people don't mind seeing tiny penises every one and awhile.

I vote Dancer in the Dark. It will be the largest mass internet-suicide ever!

Aww guys, Tropic Thunder sucks. I didn't laugh once throughout the film. Pineapple Express sounds good iyam2.

Danny Devito!! I'm your biggest fan!

a Shaun of the Dead type of film would be perfection, but I can't join anyway as Saturdays are baddd for me, my next 5 or so saturdays are full up. :/

Oh God my eyes! Nooo Cillian Murphy what did you do???

Deep throat

Yeah, I think I'll pass on watching that movie again. xD

Penetrating the deepest recesses of the republican sphincter. :bigsmile:

I saw Gran Torino yesterday at the $3 movies. It's a great movie that you all should see.

You are the biggest liar in the history of the world and you should be burned.

Serious movies aren't worth watching as a group because you should get into them rather than make fun of them (hence why Mean Girls was ideal). Go for funny things. Tropic Thunder was good, btw, I liked it - particularly Tom's character.

Watch Superbad or a really bad film like Chicken Park. Actually, don't watch Chicken Park, it's got porn in it and that's probably not cool. I don't even know. I'll probably not be around so yeah.

If we're going for movies to make fun of then I suggest narrowing the vote to Tropic Thunder, Monty Python and the Holy Grail, and this movie.
Mostly because I have access to all three of them without having to travel through all of the snow and derailed trains around here :rolleyes2

It was closer to 30% :mad:
And 15% said A Clockwork Orange :Eek:

Oh god everyone let's watch Fido!

Yeah , that's totally not cool...Chicken Park you say?:shifty:

I'll totally join in on this if it's a time I can make and not a stupid movie~ I want to see Pineapple Express! ;}

I'll watch it if it's Shrek, because that's one of my fav movies.

If you want the cheesiest, weirdest, funniest, not that long movie ever, watch Superstar.

"Orphan Mary Katherine Gallagher, an ugly duckling at St. Monica High School, has a dream: to be kissed soulfully. She decides she can realize this dream if she becomes a superstar, so her prayers, her fantasies, and her conversations with her only friend focus on achieving super-stardom. Her big chance is a school talent contest; her main competition is Evian, the school beauty, who is dancing with Sky, the object of Mary Katherine's kiss dream. Mary Katherine gets some talent-show help from her fellow special education students, her grandma, and Jesus, and inspiration from secrets in her past. Watching are Sky, Evian, and a silent classmate"

YouTube - SUPERSTAR Trailer

It's an amazing movie. SUPAH STAH.

Superstar is an excellent suggestion xD

I'm in the mood for a weird dark comedy film. How about John Water's Pink Flamingos or Serial Mom?

My god, some of you people have horrible taste in movies. Then again, some of you love Napoleon Dynamite so I shouldn't be surprised.

Well what do you want to see Mr. Mullet, hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm?

I want to see you all watching horrible movies together. :p

Wind That Shakes The Barley was epic. I demand everyone watches it. WATCH IT!

Updated the first post, lemme know if I missed any. Suggestions close tomorrow (I hope one of our CKs will be nice enough to add a multiple choice poll, then!).

Can we do like a block movie weekend? I can't do Saturdays and I'd like to participate. :(

Dates are open for suggestion, too, dunno why no one's given any xD

Then I suggest the 25th!

Wow, you actually added JCVH to the list. I did not expect anybody to take that seriously o.O
Anyways, I'm in Bryan on Saturdays. The 25th should be good, as long as I happen to have whichever movie is picked :P

I'm taking some of the more serious ones off if I get better suggestions seeing as we can only have twenty poll options xD

Oh, nevermind they're closed anyway. I'd never heard of it until you mentioned it, but it sounds really awesome xD

Isn't Gran Torino in theaters right now? I don't think we can watch that one together successfully.

Oh, it is? Well then I guess the only way we could watch it together is to pirate it which is not condoned here and none of you definitely shouldn't not do it.

You are correct, sir.

In addition to suggesting the 25th, I also suggest either Superbad or Roger Rabbit for the movie.

it's not out on dvd but we could in theory -- there's a rip of it released.

Disney Movie Weekend?

I'll only watch Alladin..


...for undisclosed reasons. >_>

It may be the cheesiest movie ever. The fight scenes are cornier than... well, lots and lots of corn :eek:

Wow, that is corny!

There's always illegal downloading off the web. I mean wut.

Though I wouldn't bother because that movie was boring.

Donny(or is it Donnie?)Darko, not a comedy in some parts, but still a movie I enjoyed.

Everyone's probably seen that already. You people are boring. Why watch movies you've already seen when there's so many amazing movies out there you probably haven't. Like this.

Poll's here! I also added Mallrats because Mallrats is awesome.

Now that's a good add ,Psychotic...say, would you like a chocolate covered pretzel?

Holy Grail really is fantastic. :D

Yeah , I agree but Monty Python's (British) humor isn't to everybody's taste...so it can easily be viewed as boring and puzzling...

The total votes now add up to... 200%?
(Hooray for multiple choice polls!)

It's multiple choice, so don't just vote for the one you want to see the most, guys!
Vote for any movie you might enjoy seeing :D!

Ugh. I'd expect this forum to have seen Monty Python a hundred million times anyway. :p All our chat would be is EoFFers quoting the whole movie, which would be quite irritating.

Superbad is, well, super bad.

THERE, NOW I'VE BITCHED ABOUT MOVIES.

I suggested it because a lot of people here seem to love it and I've never seen it ever xD

PRODUCERS.
NAU.

Monty Python should be eliminated unless a good portion of the people actually participating haven't seen it. Out of that list, I would suggest either Little Miss Sunshine, Pineapple Express or Tropic Thunder. Those are all movies that can be discussed pretty well in a group setting.

These three I wanna see more than others (damnit I forgot to check the "Little Miss Sunshine" box wtf D:) but I checked a couple others that are still like, enjoyable.

I HOPE SOMETHING GOOD GETS PICKED. Annnnd... as much as I love Monty Python, I guess I agree that it would be a bad choice for eoffers to watch together in a chat. xD

Mean Girls is a fun movie you crap sacks...okay, I probably got more out the movie than most everyone here because I am from Chicago and some of the jokes mean so much more if you are from here.

I think that we should watch The Producers even if it doesn't get even close to the most votes.

Then why even bother making a poll :p

I just watched Pineapple Express. It was lulz worthy but I dunno if it'd be that great for a chat thing :/

Okay, then, it's Monty Python and the Holy Grail! Do y'all wanna watch it Saturday or Sunday? Or maybe we can watch that one Saturday and Shaun of the Dead on Sunday?

I am worried because the suggested days are tomorrow and the next day and no one has said anything about what day they would prefer :|

Is anybody still doing this, 'cause I don't wanna be the only one popping in the room. I'll feel dumb :(

I'm not sure I'll be able to get it. My dad's going canoing tomorrow, so I won't have a ride to get the movie. =[
I'm gonna try though!
*determined*

The Kentucky Fried Movie because I know for a fact only a handful of you have seen it and it's pretty smurfing hilarious.

Or let's watch Best In Show, I haven't seen that in a while. My suggestions are better than watching Monty Python and the Holy Grail for the nine-thousandth time.

Kung pow = best movie ever!!! Listin to the chosen one

Holy grail is a good second choice

*cuts of arm*
"Tiss only a flesh wound"

So, Monty Python then? Count me in. Lessee if I can rent it off of iTunes or something.

The worst was Superbad.

We doing this in #eoff thing again?

Just set a time and a date and see what people say.

I think we should watch Ghostbusters instead though. :ghost:

It was decided awhile ago so people who plan on renting the movie will have time to get it :p


Aaaanyway, see you all tomorrow 3PM US Central time in #eoffcinema!

i like totally voted Kung Pow but i was too late! and i don't want to watch any of the other movies on the list.

I'm sad that Kung Pow or The Producers didn't win myself :(

OMg let's do this thing!

There is only three people this time :(

I just IM'd Lekana and froze her movie. Lol.

Yeah wtfux guys? You all are so riled up over this one and no one is here.

"We're Knights of the round table, we dance when able!"

Well that was fun...I wish more people showed up, though :(

DD and Mirage hung out with us, but JKTrix, Lekana and I were the only ones watching.

I did quote it a lot. >.> Then someone came to visit so i missed the last half xD

Monty Python and the Holy Grail.
