Movie/TV geeks

During winter months we host pajama movie/tv day on Sundays.
We lounge around in warm comfies and do very little other than hang out and watch stuff with a large group of friends, and most often we do it either ala Rocky Horror style (like Princess Bride) or we watch them MST3K style (esp cheeeesy movies like Dungeons and Dragons, lol). Of course snacks and cocoa are bountiful. Sometimes we play equally geeky games while watching the movies, like a Munchkin variation or Guillotine.

We are sci/fi, fantasy, dark hero, supernatural geeks with smatterings of mind screw, silly animation and good action thrown in.
Or we watch a season of The Muppets or Jim Henson stuff.

What would your tv/movie playlist be for a complete jammie-geek day in?

Honestly? Old radio shows.

Although... Princess Bride, Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, various anime.

A friend had a painfully bad collection of kung fu movies. Really cringe-worthy....

Firefly/Serenity, Star Wars, Battlestar Glacatica or Dexter.

Or all of them in one super weekend! *nerdgasm*

Mighty Boosh or The grim adventures of Billy and Mandy i recken. Some thing funny is always good.

Carnivale!! Its like the most awesome series ever! It will also totally appeal to you Pele, dark, full of twists and turns and the apolocaliptic battle against good and evil...all set in a carnivale...

with boobs.

heh.

h.r.puf'n'stuff...!!

OMG Pogo..that's too much.

Valura, saw them when it came out (I actually know one of the people who was an "advisor" on it!). I own it on DVD. I miss it. It was so awesome.
But I haven't had a movie day of it...and should! Why didn't I think of it???
See, you're brilliant!
And who doesn't like boobs? And bearded ladies and cryptic midgets?

FRD. I'm with ya on the Firefly/Serenity. I love Heart of Gold.
BTW, here's something interesting that we noticed 2 geek-ends ago, during which we watched The Crow 2. Richard Brooks, The guy who played Jubal Early the sadistic bounty hunter in the Objects in Space episode also pays Judah Earl, the sadistic bad guy in The Crow 2, a *very* similar character. Interesting no? Methinks he time travelled and they were just saying his name wrong!

aston, like Drunken Master bad or worse? We can't do those. They hurt too much.

Electricblue...The Mighty Boosh? That sounds like a 70's porn movie..oh, wait. That would be *bush*..never mind.

*flails and does the cryptic midget dance*


also... I love um, my name is earl for a good mind numbing funny show, and LOST cause Josh Holloway is blindingly goodlooking, and also House cause I have a freaky crush on Hugh Laurie.

heh... alllright. I wanna come to yours for a movie day!

You and the fam are welcome *any* Sunday.
And when I come back to that corner of the globe later in 2009, we shall have one, complete with jammies! (well there goes that secret ) We are planning a road trip from Melb up through, and this time we *will* be seeing each other!!!!

Doctor Horribles Sing Along blog, repeated until everyone is singing along!

Which does not take long.

Pele: Worse. One of the worse ones was 36 Deadly Styles. Which just suddenly goes "The End". More recently, a Korean movie called "The Legend of the Shadowless Sword". We just watch for the awesomely choreographed fighting. Plot? What is plot?

Ha! Like we need to watch it that often for that!

"..because I'm The Hammer. By the way, the hammer is my penis..."



aston, I don't think I could sit through that. Didn't that hurt?

It did, but with a peanut gallery it can become surprisingly fun.

monkey magic...!!
