October 18, 20177 yr I was thinking 'My Neighbor Is Totoro' as an Anime choice and I have no idea for what to suggest for musicals, but they're also light hearted and fun majority of the time, so I think they'd be a nice counteract for the horror sesh. Maybe 'Little Shop of Horrors'? Ive seen it a few times, but I could never get bored of it :wub: I've not seen 'Rent' before and I've heard it's worth watching! These two are just two options that I would like to request to put in the poll if they go ahead pleaseeee. Haha.
October 18, 20177 yr Author Ok poll Up with the options for theme this week! (These are the ones either suggested or I've seen somewhere) Anime Drama Movie released in 2017 Musical Oscar nominees/winners Teen flick This'll close this afternoon where I'll put the poll up for film selection!
October 18, 20177 yr Author I've voted musicals cos they are obviously one of my favourite genres! (Already starting the campaign for rent to win the poll if musicals, I've been meaning to get round to watching it for AGES and its on Netflix as well!)

(Already starting the campaign for rent to win the poll if musicals, I've been meaning to get round to watching it for AGES and its on Netflix as well!) Yes!! I've been meaning to see Rent for years but have never gotten around to it yet. "Seasons of Love" is gorgeous, I can imagine that being such a moment :heart:
October 19, 20177 yr I've voted for musicals but I'd be happy with anime too (maybe do both in back-to-back weeks since I appear to have just sent it into a tie? lol) and I'll definitely get involved with discussion now that horror is out of the way :P
October 20, 20177 yr Teen flicks is the only genre I like really! Well obviously films released in 2017. Anime could be good I guess, I loved Spirited Away.
October 20, 20177 yr Author ok Anime this week and Musicals next week! that good with you guys? will put up film selection poll now and new week starting tomorrow! Theme results: Anime [ 4 ] ** [50.00%] Drama [ 0 ] ** [0.00%] Movie Released in 2017 [ 0 ] ** [0.00%] Musical [ 3 ] ** [37.50%] Oscar Nominees/Winners [ 0 ] ** [0.00%] Teen Flicks [ 1 ] ** [12.50%]
October 20, 20177 yr Author Guys I can't find any anime films on netflix or amazon prime. Do you guys want to do musicals this week instead or do you want anime films but films that aren't on netflix/amazon prime?

October 22, 20177 yr Just looked on Netflix and their isn't a lot of the well known anime movies on Netflix at least.
October 22, 20177 yr The more well known anime films are quite easy to find online I've found, albeit from dodgy providers. I'd love to watch one if possible, have been really enjoying Studio Ghibli pictures recently.
October 22, 20177 yr Yeah. I'm with Chez on this. However, I understand if there are people that may not want to go down that route of trying to find a link from another provider etc.. so I'm happy with musicals if people wanted to do that instead. Maybe if one of us finds a link and those who want to watch from that link says "I'm in" in the topic, we could PM that member with a link or something if they're worried about stumbling onto a site that they aren't aware of?
October 22, 20177 yr Author Ok we'll go with Anime this week! Though this has taken way longer sorting out than I thought it'd be so I have another question!! What would you guys think is better: 1) We wait until Friday to start Anime week and start going one per week as planned 2) We start on Tuesday (with poll tomorrow) and do a bumper week of Anime & Musical and then do one per week from Friday 3rd also what films should I put in the Anime poll bar My Neighbour Totoro?
October 23, 20177 yr Author ok fab will wait till Friday! Poll selection for films will be up on Wednesday! (Poll options so far then: Totoro, Spirited Away! Any other suggestions, if not I'll pick some that I think would work well!)
