Cinco DeNio

When my pick comes up you'll get a chance to watch The Ice Capades Presents: Oh! Calcutta! You're welcome.

The forum won't let me edit the original post so it will have to say Cakebug's pick until the end of the week. If people would prefer I open a new thread instead, I can do that.

Speaking of being in a pinch, @Cam Bert, you're up!

Thanks, everyone. I admit these are all my personal concerns because I think about this stuff WAY too much. I greatly appreciate everyone's responses.

It looks like JammerLea or someone else is maintaining the Google spreadsheet if people want to see past picks.

Looks like I've done about 70% already-seen to 30% first-time. I like the idea of only picking ones I haven't seen and will do that from now on. Then how about the second question: If a watch party is scheduled do you watch the movie beforehand?

Found it.

I love that we "beat" the podcast to LLL. It seems like we had a decent amount to discuss. I'll have to find the thread.

On a related question, if you're going to join a watch party (like Kast or others), do you watch the movie ahead of time so you can discuss it more or do you wait to discover it fresh with others? With others would be more like a real movie theater. When The Guest was selected I disappointed (not really, I know) my watch partner because I hadn't seen it. The partner graciously refrained from commenting so they wouldn't spoil it. I feel like we could have had a lot of fun if I had seen it before hosting the Kast showing.

While we wait I would like to take a mini-poll. If you haven't seen the movie you're considering do you try to watch it first or just go ahead and pick it? I have several titles on my list that I want to see but am "nervous" about them being really bad. Since I still have a couple months I was thinking of trying to start watching my top possibles.

He touched her breast, tenderly. "Oi!" She shouted. "Get your own KFC bucket!"

taylorannephoto bowed out for this week so CakeBug Tranch is on the clock!

Off-Topic: I found my Playbill from 2000's The Rocky Horrow Show with Joan Jett's autograph in it. Dick Cavett also autographed it. (He was The Narrator the night I saw the show.) I also have Neil Patrick Harris' autograph on an envelope that he signed for me. (The envelope was my Will Call ticket pick-up. I hadn't expected to meet him so I didn't have anything special to sign.)

No, you didn't misunderstand. I tried to say (not very clearly obviously) that I changed my thinking after Cameron posted his opinion. I tried to clarify and just muddied the waters further.

I know, I just didn't think the General (?) would keep his promise after slaughtering the rest of the dance troupe.

I'll say Swing Kids. I don't remember the song in Jojo Rabbit.

WHEW! At @Cameron H.'s first comment I thought he was saying Jackson was killed. Getting sent Stateside would seem to me to be a good thing, dishonorably discharged or not. Although I suppose he would find sympathy in his community, talking about the events too much would get him prosecuted and jailed.

This article agrees with you and most others in here.

Mr. Roberts is South African.

I'm confused. Is he alive at the end? Where is he going in the helicopter? I thought that was him heading to Okinawa.

I thought he did but your response makes sense. I was hoping at least he stayed on the original base but now I...don't think so.

"What's your name Dr. Strange?" "Lincoln. Lincoln Nebraska. Dr. Strange is my stage name."

Was Ki Su the only one who had to sneak off to dance? I can't imagine the other POWs being happy about fellow prisoners heading off to form a dance team. I wish the dad had run like Ki Su told him to. I felt like Ki Su was going to run at the end when he jumped through the curtain. Unfortunately he was stopped and the ending happened. (I don't want to talk about the ending. That tore me up like few movies have.)
