The UK Forum's Sunday Double Bill Series

[PK22]

Hey guys!
I was thinking earlier about an idea for a new thread. The idea was that on a weekly basis (or depending however far apart you guys want) the forum members choose a designated double bill.

The idea is that each member who wishes to join the group will be given a designated weekend, they then are able to choose which double is to be watched that weekend. So for example, lets say I have the first Sunday (or what ever day is decided to be the double bill day). I say which double bill everyone who wishes to participate will watch.

There will be a set list of rules to decide how a double bill is eligible, in order to keep the double bills interesting. E.G. preventing a six-hour double bill, unrelated films, etc. And the person who’s weekend it is must watch their own double bill before confirming it in order to prevent double bills that don’t work from being selected.

The criteria for the double bill thread will have to be agreed on by everyone.

I suggest simple rules like:
- No new releases (e.g. Blu-Rays that will be hard to rent or will still be expensive to buy)
- The films selected must have a theme (e.g. the same director, star, or both of the same genre)
- The must be a maximum combined runtime (e.g. something like no-longer than four hours)
- No sequels (e.g. no films like The Lord of the Rings: the Two Towers, but sequels that you don’t need to have seen the previous film (e.g. Evil Dead II or Dawn of the Dead) may be selected if other members agree)
- No non-UK blu-rays (no imports, e.g. films only available in Region A)

Also guys, I'm suggesting Sunday be the official day because it seems the most sensible but other suggestions are welcome!

Feedback would be great, lets see if this idea catches on or even if it is wanted!
