Hello ALL! As promised we're about to press play on the Buzzjack Film Club (BJFC). It will be beginning shortly and we need an audience.

 

In order to sign up all we want from you is to post your interest in this thread alongside answers to the following questions (or as many as you can answer):

 

Favourite Film:

Favourite Film Genre:

Least Favourite Film Genre:

How often do you watch films:

What are you most looking forward to in the Film Club:

 

This is just to determine what the general interests are in your viewing to date and WON'T be used to determine what films we will be watching; after all, a fair bit of this may take you out of your comfort zones and so won't just be tailored to what we're all used to already.

 

 

I'd like to add that this sign-up is incredibly flexible. You can step out whenever you wish and don't have to commit to following it through all the way and new people will always be welcomed in if they miss a film and want to start watching from the next one. However to get the most out of the Film Club you will need to put in enough time to watch a movie and then talk about it. You're under no obligation to do either but we'd love it if you could chat with us about it after and help to develop a close community joined by the films & subsequent discussion. We really do want your co-operation and enthusiasm in order to fully reap the rewards.

 

The general premise has been outlined in a previous thread but if there are any other questions you may have before signing up please do not hesitate to voice them in this thread or via pm ^_^
