I think you should too. Last week in the library someone watched Paranormal Activity: Tokyo Nights all the way through.

You are going to watch The Golem right?

Well I watched it again in a drug-fueled haze so just try that sometime. I once saw Enter the Void while on Nightquil and it was cracktacular.

Also, Timmer, I might hate you a little after that comparison has now been seared into my head forever.

I watched 15 movies this weekend



Edited: I lied, I actually like you a lot and think we have lots of great cinematic-themed convos ahead of us.

Our book club thread is going amazingly, so why not start a cinema club too?

Each session, get ahold of the DVD of whichever film has been chosen and watch it at your leisure. Then come back to the thread to weigh in on your opinion, analyze and synthesize the film, answer the discussion questions and talk about the film's significance in the cinematic zeitgeist.

The first selection is the German expressionist film from the 1920s, The Golem (in light of the Sherlock game). You are in for a mad treat. The Golem is available for borrowing from many public libraries. It is available on DVD from Netflix, and you can stream if for free if you are an Amazon Prime member.

Watch the film and head on back here next weekend so we can discuss this cinematic gem. Happy huntin'!
