Depends if it's GMT suitable, but I'm interested!
 
This sounds like a wonderful idea.
 
You know @Vivian technically speaking, you only need Staff Approval for movies if you make it an official Iwaku event. If it's just you and some friends you happen to know on Iwaku? You should be in the clear unless if it starts violating stuff like "Don't get sexual with different age groups". But since you specifically stated IWAKU movie night? Yea... Staff probably do need to approve... But I like covering these technicalities, it's fun, and might alert staff to potential loopholes. :P

Anyways. I vote for Human Centipede... There's absolutely nothing wrong with this movie. :3

...

Serious suggestion is "Donald Trumps The Art of the Deal".

They get Johnny Depp to play Trump and it's hilarious. XD
 
I would love to participate in some of these things, but my internet is simply to poor to participate.

I wish you all the best, though!

When I state Iwaku Movie night, I mean I W A K U (the cult of the role-playing community), I actually wasn't aware I could get staff approval to make this an official event, ain't that a neat learn? When I make the movie night and all I do intend to enforce Iwaku rules, and maybe a few of my own for the sake of sanity (I fear people might fight for the remote like they do in my household). Probably when I turn +18 (or if an adult member is willing), there can be a no kids allowed version where we can watch something like Human Centipede, because we all love that mind fuck, plus I feel a lil proud I alerted staff of loopholes.

The point of this is to help out people to make some new friends here, or even get new members engaged in the community to some degree. On another note, thanks for the suggestions! Trump himself is a great laugh as it is, I'm sure Johnny'll make him a riot.
 
@Hana I'm hecking hyped for the big update. Even though I have no clue what's going to be updated or what'll happen. I just like updates and pretty stuff.
When you do that marathon could you count me in? I hardly ever sleep, to begin with, and I'm a certified weeaboob.

Well, there are two votes for Shrek at the moment, which is great.

But, have any of you considered the greatest movie of all time?

Movie Night? I love Movies... any movie, yes XD
 
Also, @Gwazi Magnum ... human centipede <_< Are you trying to scar everyone for the rest of forever?
Oh come! Human Centipede isn't that bad. :P

Well... Honestly speaking I've never seen any official Iwaku events (outside of Teamspeak when the sites down) in my time on Iwaku. But Iwaku did have a radio show before my time, so I know such a thing is at the very least possible.

Plus, I may or may not tend to prod @Diana with "What-if" questions on site rules and policies to the point any sane person would think "You're just looking to break this site aren't you?".

Though if you're doing it more in the spirit? Just make sure it doesn't fall under a "Sneaky way to work around the rules" deal... In other words, don't watch porn. :P

Give yourself Admin powers over the room. Solved. :P

In all honesty? I don't even think showing teen's a rated R movie would be a problem by Iwaku's rules.

Like... We allow them to have Liberteen RPs so they're already exposed to mature content that'd normally be flagged as too mature. And the only reason we have the Liberteen/Libertine separation is due to ages of consent and such, something that wouldn't apply to just watching a movie... Unless if it's Porn.... Don't watch Porn. :P

In that case have you tried making a Discord room for it? It'd be a lot easier to gather people if they engage with and know each other more often than just a weekly meet up.

Yeay! My suggestion is working! :3

Yeah, that makes sense, but wouldn't you think watching an R rated movie with both teens and adults would be like me walking into the Libertine section when I'm supposed to be in Liberteen?

I've actually never considered a discord server, definitely will give that a shot.
 
I'm telling you guys. Birdemic. It's a great movie, no matter how old you are.

Jontron did a review of it, and loves it deeply.

It's got good reviews.

This idea sounds like it could be a pretty good one if it is executed properly but I think I'll pass. I'm not really interested in seeing any animated movies at the moment...except for Sausage Party that is.

!! I'm in a CET/UTC +1 timezone with summertime -- if you don't set your movie times at like 1-2AM for me I'll be glad to join!
 
Depending on the movie, I'd gladly join in :)

But like a few others have brought up, most of us are in different timezones, so it might possibly be helpful to have a few people from different timezones host the same movie... That way the only option might work out great for some people but be absolutely terrible for others ^_^

Not necessarily.

You got Deadpool, Kick Ass, Terminator, Gladiator etc.
Remember it can get rated R for sexual themes yes, but also for just a certain level of swearing and violence.

Sweet :3
 
official Iwaku events
Actually we had a pokemon thing that was an Iwaku official event (it doesn't have to hosted by staff to be official you know). There were message boxes for it and everything. And if you want to count roleplays there was the Mythos (which I would love to see brought back) and Illum. I also kind of miss the once a month Mascarades (?) Diana and Ozzy hosted in ChRPs.

Also: Sausage Party; I need to see this too :o

Also also: I heard Deadpool o.o
