I'll opt out of the movie code drawing, but would take a Jason Gang-Tag (or that Art gang-tag if it gets tossed in the system).

Yeah I’d definitely like that sweet Sadako tag if it’s a thing (Red keeps winning) but otherwise would like the classic variety. Jason is a very bad boy!!

I'm still working on my wrap-up, but I'd love to upgrade to Jason and opt out of digital codes. I love the sentiment, but I'd rather they went to someone who could use them!

I am perfectly happy with Jason tag if Sadako tag is not available on such short notice.

This was already mentioned I think, but just a reminder that we also do a scaled down "halfway to Halloween" version of this challenge in May every year. Look for that in CineD, it usually goes up in the last few days of April. It's always a good time and I set the threshold for prizes to just 13 movies instead of 31 so it won't eat up all your free time for the month.

I'll opt out of movie codes as I think someone may appreciate them more, but if I can stack a Jason tag on top of the current one I'd very much like that.gey muckle mowser posted:This was already mentioned I think, but just a reminder that we also do a scaled down "halfway to Halloween" version of this challenge in May every year.

I was honestly always super intimidated by the Horror Thread because of how big it was and how fast it moved so I made sure to jump into the stream once it got reset a little bit ago. Thread refreshes work!

No need for a tag or codes, getting to watch a whole lot of movies I had never seen before is reward enough

And I’ll try and make it accessible and legible this time.

Forty-four movies, passing my thirty-one target, while completing all the challenges. Thanks to Basebf555 for running things. I really enjoyed chasing down the thirty-six challenges last year, but it was also good to follow it up with a year where I had more room to run down my list of been-meaning-to-get-to movies. And thanks to everyone for all the great movies that I watched because of their reviews. This thread was the only place I heard about my favorite movie of the month. You all make October a very fun time of year.

I'm not going to do a wrap up post because I don't have the mental energy to organize like that, but I will say that without question the best first watch was Next Of Kin. Absolutely blew me away and I'm still thinking about it a month later. Unreal.

 PRIZE DRAWING BUSINESS ALERTThe list of movies available to the winners is as follows: The Addams Family(1991) Poltergeist(1982) Event Horizon Friday the 13th Part 4 aka The Final Chapter(regular 1080p, not 4k) The Nightmare Before Christmas The Lost Boys Pearl(courtesy of Shrecknet) X(also courtesy of Shrecknet) We also have three additional codes that are possibly expired, so if one of the winners wants to test them out we'll give them a shot. I Know What You Did Last Summer Angel Heart Scream All Codes are 4k except for the Friday the 13th code, but don't worry if you don't do 4k, you don't have to actually watch them in 4k. The list of posters who have qualified for the drawing(and haven't opted out) are as follows: Action Shakespeare Philthy Weird Sandwich Flash Fearless rodbeard david-A Jeremiah Flintwick Nikumatic Justin Godsock Count Thrashula Erin Fiasco M_Sinistrari Ambitious Spider Biff Rockgroin Gyro Zeppeli Machete Zombie Sir Kodiak Deadite Greekonomics The Berzerker Lamanda Hausu Usher STAC Goat Pretzel Rod Stewart Twernt Class3Killstorm Darthmed Russian Guyovich Mover Maxwell Lord Leatherhead Scones Are Good Bio Tech Xenomorph Vanilla Bison The Bizzness Name Change alf-pogs Jedit I won't begin the drawings for another 24 hours, so if your name is on the list but you want to opt-out, you still have time to let me know. And of course if your name doesn't appear on the list and you think it should, also let me know. I'll be surprised if I didn't miss at least one or two people.

Feel free to pull me from the drawing. If I’m too lazy to write a wrap up I don’t deserve a prize. I’m kind of pulling for that scenario where one poster wins everything by default.

I mean you watched like 70 movies or something so I think you deserve it. Your call though. Honestly the more people seem to not care about the codes the better it is for me because if I end up doing this again next year there may not be any prizes at all. It's good that people seem to be happy to just participate for the sake of the spooky season fun.

Real talk I hope some of my posts were helpful to some people in directing them to movies they might like. That is really the only goal besides thumbs-upping or thumbs-downing. I also watched an insane (for me) number of movies in October, last year I think I crapped out at like 35.

I can't claim that the reason so many people watched Petey Wheatstraw was because of my review but I did enjoy reading the reviews from all the people who watched it after me and had a nice time I definitely watched Blood Hook and Captain Clegg because of the reviews in this thread and had a great time with both!

Like how many people watched Razorback after I picked it at random for the giant animal challenge (because that movie loving rules, watch Razorback). That others were also using the image links from my reviews for poster images made me smile. That others found using the image I found after looking around really made it feel worth it to find some unique image. M_Sinistrari fucked around with this message at 23:35 on Nov 3, 2023 |
