The Community Movie Night is back - What do you want to watch?

TheresaV — Tue, 06 Apr 2021 11:14:52 GMT

Hi guys!

We hope you all had a lovely Easter bank holiday and above all enjoyed the content for our Easter Week that we and our members came up with. But even if you missed out on the fun, we have something coming up for you to make up for that

Our Movie Night is back! Remember our last Movie Night when watching the movie Signs on recently launched Star on Disney+ led to almost heart attacks (me) and a lot of joy in those for other members (you)? Well, we want to repeat the fun on this Friday, the 9th of April with a movie of YOUR choice. That’s right - Unlike last time, we will only give you a theme to begin with, you can then suggest the movie you would like to watch within that theme, which will then open up for voting and after successful voting, watch together with you on Friday evening!

And the theme is….. (drumroll please) MARVEL!

So, don’t be shy and share your favourite Marvel movie, or a Marvel movie you have been wanting to watch for a while, with us and we can all get together again on Friday evening, switch on Disney+ (or pop in that DVD if that’s what you have) and share our thoughts, fears and joys over a Community Movie Night!

Suggestions can be submitted until midnight of Tuesday, the 6th of April and we will then open the voting between your suggestions from tomorrow!

Very curious on what your suggestions are but above all I can’t wait for another Movie Night on Friday! Hope to see the regular faces @MI5 @Cleoriff @Mi-Amigo @pgn @jonsie @BobM @TallTrees @ComaChameleon @gmarkj @Anonymous @madasaf1sh as well as many more!

Marvel.. That's me out. I've watched Iron Man, didn't reckon much so I haven't bothered with any of the rest.

To be honest, not a fan of Marvel.

It`s a bit like Sonic [Sega] v Mario Bros [Nintendo]. I was a huge fan of Sonic and Sega games but hated Mario Bros and Ninetendo.

With comic books and movies, loved DC [Superman, Batman] but hated Marvel comics/movies.

So, sorry, this one isn`t for me this time but I`m sure Marvel movies have lots of fans among the members.

Loved all the Iron Man films, though the first was the best.

Thor: Ragnarok, Black Panther and all the Avengers Assemble, Avengers The Endgame and Avengers: Infinity War and Doctor Strange.

Not keen on any Captain America films, where he is the star.

Sad to hear you are not keen on Marvel movies @Mi-Amigo @Anonymous I thought everyone must have at least one Marvel film that they like, but maybe that was a bit presumptuous of me

Glad to hear you are joining us @Cleoriff and will make sure to include your favourites in the voting

I think Guardians of the Galaxy or Ant Man...

jonsie — Tue, 06 Apr 2021 13:12:41 GMT

Love all the Marvel films

I've just finished watching all the Avenger movies back to back

The only one I haven't watched is Ant Man because I didn't fancy it and Spiderman:Far From Home as I haven't got round to it

Gladly go with the popular choice though

Well I'll have to stand back .. because I don't know movie titles or the actors sorry @TheresaV 🤪
It's all goggdegoo to me so will join in view choices with interest. @pgn will probably need to send me a YouTube video to understand what the *** everyone is talking about.
Ant man..never heard of it.
Heard of Avengers I think ..
Marvel films.. never heard of them
Iron man 🤣
Ah ..Superman 🦸‍♂️ 👍 heard of him
Good luck enjoy...

Not that this will help @TallTrees :

My preferred three, in order of the above:

Guardians of the Galaxy (first movie}
Doctor Strange
Thor: Ragnarok

Thanks for your input @gmarkj @jonsie and @pgn! Getting curious as to which one will be the winner for Friday night. Either way, I hope I will see you guys around joining us for the fun?

Maybe @pgn 's timeline helped a bit @TallTrees ? I have to admit I haven't seen most of them so I will use this opportunity to educate myself

Re: The Community Movie Night is back - What do you want to watch?

TallTrees — Tue, 06 Apr 2021 16:21:01 GMT

Yep an education indeed ...@TheresaV
Guardians of the Galaxy 🤔
Have to worry who would be in that job....I know BOJO 😰

Where does Deadpool come in the timeline? (seen clips)

Re: The Community Movie Night is back - What do you want to watch?

gmarkj — Tue, 06 Apr 2021 18:26:50 GMT

One thing that is SOOOOOOO frustrating is the lack of the new Spiderman films.
I know they are co-produced with Sony, but not having the new ones on here is a big PITA...

Re: The Community Movie Night is back - What do you want to watch?

Cleoriff — Tue, 06 Apr 2021 18:31:32 GMT

Deadpool is part of the Marvel franchise. Last I heard they were looking for way to introduce him into the Avengers @Anonymous. I suspect, as with a lot of films, Covid19 put a stop to that. However I'm certainly no expert, so maybe someone else knows?

Re: The Community Movie Night is back - What do you want to watch?

pgn — Tue, 06 Apr 2021 19:20:43 GMT

Marvel, yes - different universe tho.

Perhaps there are plans to bring them together...

Re: The Community Movie Night is back - What do you want to watch?

sheepdog — Tue, 06 Apr 2021 21:02:54 GMT

Hmm, problem is that I've seen a lot of the Marvel ones twice (once intended and second because it was a family choice and I couldn't escape) so not quite sure which one I'd pick.

Antman/Antman & The Wasp are probably the best ones that you can watch without the Marvel backstory involvement and lots of fun. Unlike Captain Marvel which is seriously the most boring of the lot and brings nothing to the series apart from the cat. Closely followed by the dull Black Panther.

Though I do like the interpretation of Thor in films compared to comics so I'd be happy with any of those three. Love Guardians of the Galaxy as well so ok with me for a third viewing.

Also: the end credits are a must so no skipping whatever the final choice!

Quite a few of the Maevel movies can be enjoyed without having seen the rest of the franchise so we should include those in the list of potentals so that people who aren't up to date with the full cinimatic universe can still get involved.

Re: The Community Movie Night is back - What do you want to watch?

gmarkj — Wed, 07 Apr 2021 09:21:24 GMT

Ones that (from memory) can be seen without knowing the full story:
Captain America
Captain Marvel
Iron Man
Thor
Guardians of the Galaxy
Ant Man
Black Panther
Dr Strange
Basically the first film in each characters series.
Think the rest of them will need some prior knowledge...

Martin-O2 — Wed, 07 Apr 2021 09:38:14 GMT

That's a perfect list for anyone who's not seen the wider MCU fims @gmarkj! Any of those can be watched as a stand alone movie.
