I don't mind your taste in movies, Cosmic, just a forewarning about the Photoshop an' all.

I'm really not sure what's happened to Optimus. His last review on here was four days' ago.

CosmicRunaway 09-30-16 03:50 PM

I think FromBeyond posted in the wrong thread. He just sent me a PM (in response to a Chain Game message I sent him last time I went looking for someone) saying he chose a film for me. He posted As Above, So Below (2014) in the Action Movie Countdown. Both threads are hosted by Omni, so I say that's close enough haha.

I just sent him another PM to make sure he wants to participate in the game. If so, I'll take Optimus' place, watch FromBeyond's rec, and just pretend I was the one who had Dalek watch Gravity. :cool:

I wonder if he thinks he just had to pick a film for me to watch and not actually find someone himself to choose a film for him?

TONGO said he sent Optimus a few reminders about it, and while I don't know the wording of what he wrote, I assume he was clear that Optimus needed to find someone to choose a movie for him.

He still hasn't watched his last movie yet, so unfortunately you'll have to choose someone else.

Why not?! If hes willing to watch whatever someone chooses for him, then its a go. He picks who picks for him though, please tell him FBeyond :)

Let's not be too afraid to refer back to people who've already participated. Expanding is nice, but there's a limit.

Maybe we should remind some of the people who haven't completed their movies yet that they agreed to this. A lot of them are from early in the previous thread, and they may have since forgotten all about it.

Everytime someone posts in this topic, the thread is bumped into New Posts. If they're active, they have little excuse.

Swan watched Close Up btw. He posted about it in his Movie Log.

CosmicRunaway 10-03-16 02:57 PM

Here's a link to Swan's review for the first post.

Looking back to see if any more were missed, the only things I found were 2 weeks ago mistique mentioning Seven Samurai in the "Movie You're Watching Tonight" thread, and 3 weeks ago MonnoM mentioned that he was dropping out future chain links but would still watch Heaven.

Whats with the question mark after AboveTheClouds?

CosmicRunaway 10-03-16 03:30 PM

Re: Pick A Movie For Me (Chain Game)
 
The question mark is usually put after a movie that the person hasn't yet agreed to watch. Once they've confirmed that they've never seen it and will be watching it, the question mark usually goes away.
