It is such a funny thing, I just finished all the jurassic's today lol. But the excitement is HUGE, I can feel it through your words and it couldn't come at a better time, i'm up for some positive ions in my life! Letzgo Sian with her cabinet full of ideas!! I feel like running through the park Phoebe Buffay style...
Girls, this is what I'm talking about. This community spirit!! Oh how it makes my heart burst :) Let's all run like Phoebe Buffay forever, haha! You're absolutely right Iris, I feel properly vibey about this one. Everything falling into place on Substack and so too will this club. This is just the beginning.... woo hoo! <3
In terms of its structure I think it might be a bit of go with the flow and see what happens as already discussed. An immediate discussion and a thread may also be helpful for people who can’t always jump on the live feed due to other commitments or different time zones.
Looking forward to finding out what the first film will be <3

Oh yes yes yes!! This is so exciting!! I used to do this many years ago - I had an old projector and a white bedsheet (so hi-tech!), and once a month I would get together with my brother and a few friends and we would watch quite a 'niche' film together, and have some wine and discuss it. It was brilliant.
If you have a list at the ready, that sounds great, then perhaps open it up to club member suggestions in a while? Watch parties would also be great, and for me, that would give me the accountability and commitment to actually watch, although having the option to watch separately for when life gets in the way! The discussion group question is really interesting - if there is a 'watch party' then a live discussion thread would be great straight after, but again it comes down to people's availability. Argh! It will be interesting to see how the votes go. A live Zoom discussion would also be great, but depends on getting the numbers right - not too many or too few! Bit of trial and error with the different methods perhaps? Cannot WAIT to join in!! x
Thank you for sharing my enthusiasm Emma :)))) and for all this awesome feedback. Super helpful. This IS so exciting! I'm thinking even a discussion thread during and then for a little bit after could be fun - although maybe distracting! Trial and error indeed, once we start it will all fall into place I'm sure. x
Yey Michael!! So good to hear from you. Hope you’re well. No, nothing required of you at this stage. Will keep you posted on it all as the votes come in :)
Haha! Thank you Caterina. Yey :)))) I hope it will be EPIC. Finding our way is the best way. I agree I think ideally the discussion needs to be immediate but then maybe left open for a few days for anyone that wasn't able to make the live version. I was just saying to Emma, I'm sure once we start it will become clear. I can't wait! <3
