Hey guys...Doomcock will be watching the Extended Cut of Ghostbusters 2016 tomorrow (assuming the method of viewing will not involve piracy of any kind, otherwise I will be watching the regular cut).  After that, I'll be holding an experimental Discord roundtable about Ghostbusters.

Here's how it will work:  I'm going to watch the movie alone.  Some people will watch it at the same time, but there's no way I can watch it with other people, it simply won't work.  It's hard enough to focus on a movie I've never seen before and make comments during it without the distraction of other voices.  So, I'll record my comments as a live DVD commentary that will eventually be posted here for you guys.  Tomorrow, from 7:40 to 8:55 CST, we will hold a Discord session where everyone compares notes on their experience.  We will STRICTLY go in turn, to avoid talking over each other...each of you getting to have your say about the movie overall, and any particularly egregious moments you want to mention...kind of like a Midnight's Edge roundtable, which I will attempt to record for use here on Patreon (attempt because the audio drops out and isn't of very high quality, so I'm not entirely sure of what we'll get, but I'll do my best).  That will be used here as a publicly available file, possibly also on YouTube, but that will depend on the quality of the recording...if it sounds bad, or if things get too chaotic, I won't put it on YouTube because I do want audio quality on any channel presentations, and Midnight's Edge sets a high bar and high expectations.

Finally, using your feedback and coupled with my own notes, I'll do a YouTube video eventually quoting you guys as well as tying everything together.  If you plan on attending, reply in this thread, and have your thoughts on Ghostbusters organized, and be ready to start on time (and end on time...I will absolutely be calling things at 8:55 this time around, I can't go later.)

I can show up if you like :) I can make a project of rewatching that mess tonight or tomorrow and having a brief list of issues ready :) It's been a couple years, but I remember what I hated at the time.

One of the things you can do for a recording session is set up a private voice chat section and invite people from the regular voice area once you know their mic is working. It could also help so people don't show up late.

Of course it’s been a couple of years...it only came out 2 years ago...😝

Ready boss. I also have a link I’m going to send you so you can be properly aware of what was changed between versions.

Hey what time were you going to actually do the initial viewing?

Sorry my friend, I'd like to never miss a discord, but I'm simply not watching that movie. Godspeed all.

This is a test to see if the fucking messaging system is still broken. Let me know if you see this reply in any way, get a message about it, or realize it's there in any way. Thanks!

doomcock

Sorry the noble experiment didn't work, but I'm sure the regular edition is just as awful. Also, I'm experimenting to see if this fucking messaging system is back from the dead. Hopefully this will post and you'll see it. What a fucking annoying day yesterday was. And what do I have to look forward to today? Fucking Ghostbusters. Is it any wonder I'm cranky?

doomcock

It looks like the response I wrote you yesterday has subsequently vanished. Did you get that response before it vanished? And can you see this one?

I am out of town at a training so I wont be able to join. I did attempt to watch this movie. I got 10 mins in and was so bored I gave up.

doomcock

You were wise. It was complete shit, dull as waiting in a doctor's office without a magazine. I'm proud of you for quitting. I wish I could've, but I said I'd watch it, and so I did.
