Lots of good ideas from the last post, a Rocky theme week is a good idea, classic detective movies is another. The post for Memorial Day makes the most sense for the initial run. Normally we do a time/day vote but I’m thinking of a small change where I throw up 4 movies in the queue on Saturday starting at either 12pm, 2 pm, or 4 pm eastern (utc -5). Vote for the time block and what 4 films you want in the block in the order you want them to appear (in example: 2pm eastern, movies 6, 4, 1, 3) if you would like to add a movie not listed ascribe a double digit number to your recommendation (I.e. 24) and I will do my best to add it if it is popular through upvotes. The list I’m currently thinking of is:
-
Flags of our Fathers (2006)
-
Sergeant York (1941)
-
The Big Red One (1980)
-
They Were Expendable (1945)
-
Patton (1970)
-
The Longest Day (1962)
-
Merrill's Marauders (1962)
-
The Steel Helmet (1951)
-
The Thin Red Line (1998)
I haven't seen Sergeant York, Merrill's Marauders and The Steel Helmet.
So I'm voting for Merrill's Marauders.
Great to see the movie club back!
