Above The Clouds picks.....


If the person is in Green, that means they've finished their movie and are eligible to be picked again.

This is basically a chain-choose what they view exercise.

No winners or losers, just participators.

I state a posters name, and they tell me to watch a movie, and no matter what it is - I watch it. (No porn, nothing illegal.)

The person that gave me the title to watch states another posters name, it cant be me - there is no revenge, and whoever the poster is tells them a movie to watch.

Then the one that chose the film has to state a posters name, and see whatever that poster says, and so on.

So whoever I call out gets to choose any movie for me to watch, Ill watch it, that person has to do the same thing I did, but cant choose me. This hopefully expands the exercise throughout the forum. Maybe we all can be deeper film fans from this :) :shrug:

Someone can say No and not participate if they dont want, thats perfectly fine. ;) I want the person to have a choice who is choosing for them, and it not be random or orderly like in a line, more personalized.

Just pick someone, if they havent followed the thread then just PM them and ask if theyd pick a movie for you, and be willing to pick someone to choose one for them. If they want to, then its a go

Swan, if youd be willing to go thru this too, please pick a movie for me to watch. :)

A little explanation to the chain rules. Nobody can be selected again ntil they finish their movie. So like I cant be chosen again till I finish Embrace Of The Serpent (Swans pick for me). There ya go. Just after youre done announce it in thread, and give your opinion or review of the film. :)

Hmmm, no clue if you'll like it, I hope you do... but I'm going to continue the train of recommendation that started with Iro for a particular film. It's Embrace of the Serpent. Saw it recently and it was the most powerful film watching experience I've had in a while.

I want Minio to recommend a film!

Good idea for a group activity Tongo:p Thumbs up to Swan for giving you an excellent movie choice. I haven't seen Embrace of the Serpent but I read the synopsis and it sounded good.

You're a sick man, Minio. I can't find it.

Besides... uh... I meant I want a recommendation from Daniel M! :shifty:

Something you think I'd like, but outside my comfort zone, please!

I'm intrigued. I like the rules.

Only problem I see is it depends on invite.

It's not a problem, it's the concept. :p

The concept is exclusive by nature.

Technically it could be, but it wont play out that way. The only control you have of what movie you want to watch is who you pick to choose one for you. :)

CosmicRunaway 08-25-16 10:19 AM

I assume you can only pick from people who have posted in the thread (or people who agreed to participate), so if you're worried about being overlooked for a recommendation, that probably won't happen unless everyone decides they want in on this.

No restrictions, Swan hadnt posted in the thread. Just pick someone, if they havent followed the thread then just PM them and ask if theyd pick a movie for you, and be willing to pick someone to choose one for them. If they want to, then its a go :)

Oh, I thought you only singled out Swan to get the ball rolling because no one had posted in the thread. But that makes sense, and thanks for clarifying. :up:

Adding my name to the thread. :p

And can i ask my alts to pick a movie for me? :p
No and No. :) Im just gonna finish season 1 of Sopranos then watch Swans Serpent movie.

Seems to be a logjam, Ill PM Dan and see if he will pick a movie for Swan, and choose someone to choose for him...uh..yeah.

Where's that ever elusive bear re93animator? If I'm going to ask for random recommendations I need to ease into this by asking someone who's resume I'm familiar with and often concur. I can't just jump in the pool head-on and risk ending up near Minio pissing in a corner (I hope that's just urine).
