Just as an update, we’ve been informed that we’re not going to be able to get Interview with the Vampire, so does anyone have any good suggestions for what should go on the Thursday of Vampire week?
Suggestions thus far have (in alphabetical order) included:
[size=9]Though I don’t care about attendances and I think it’s a crime not to show Nosferatu in vampire week and I recon we could show it on DVD. I know I’d pay to see it on a big screen regardless of whether it came on 35mm just as long as it was the origional ‘black and white’ version (with the origional stock for night and evening etc. rather than the sepia version) You need to see it on the big screen to fully apprechiate the deep focus.[/size] [size=7]Watching it on TV is like looking at a piece of art on a teeny tiny postcard.[/size]
Twilight has absolutely no cinematic value and showing it just to make money would be equally as wrong[/quote]
um, I don’t think that classifies a a breach of our constitution - especially since it’s subject to your not liking the film (for the record, I didn’t like it either), since it was clearly extremely well received by the masses.
The financial argument is an imprtant one though. Whilst our single screenings for next term look like they should hold up quite well, the doubles are quite weak, so aren’t likely to be able to make the profits we’d need them too.
I was kinda joking about Twilight, obviously if people want to see it again then we should consider it but I do feel that we shouldn’t be showing films just to make money, it’s not like we’re broke at the moment
Ok peeps, Blade has been requested, in line with the desire of the masses (all 11 of us!). Twilight and Cirque du Freak will be reserves, corresponding with/to the vote.
