I'm disabled and can't go places atm. I'm getting into movie nights via twitch streamers, and I'm gonna help organise one of them.

What are some films that would be good to watch? We stream via discord

  • Billy Madison
  • The Breakfast Club
  • Dodgeball
  • Ferris Bueller's Day Off
  • Ghostbusters I & II
  • Happy Gilmore
  • Indiana Jones 1-3
  • The Shining
  • Super Troopers
  • Young Frankenstein

And it's kind of cheating cuz it's not technically a movie but the mini-series Over the Garden Wall is a must for the fall and all together runs about 2 hours

Whiplash and Three Billboards Outside Ebbing Missouri are the two best movies I've seen in a long long time

The Austin Powers movies are fun if you are looking for something light with broad appeal

Me and a couple friends from Lemmy have also been having a movie night lately! We watched Kiss Kiss Bang Bang recently, one of my favorite movies of all time so I suggest that one.

Bullet Train is pretty fun. I'm a big fan of one set films.

Galaxy Quest is a MUST. Same with Clue.

You know I've never seen Galaxy quest. I should put it on my watch list anyway

I haven't responded in an hour because I've been sat here in shock

FUCKING WATCH IT!

Like... Listen. I know I'm a nobody. But trust me on this one thing. Trust me.

Puss in boots the last wish.

It’s really weird just how good that movie was

The new Knives Out is coming up. The first and second deserve a rewatch.

The first Matrix, too bad they never made any sequels.

The Mask of Zorro is my all time top guilty pleasure.

Bram Stoker’s Dracula is great and incredibly horny.

Princess Bride.

Hot Fuzz, gets better every time you watch it.

Labyrinth, yes plz.

Muppets Christmas Carol, later in the year, but like the best Muppets movie.

Wallace and Grommet, any but Curse of the Wererabbit is my favourite.

Rocky Horror Picture Show, depending on the group.

Similarly, The Room. Set up some spoon emojis 🥄🥄🥄🥄🥄🥄🥄

Anything with Tom Hanks. Apollo 13, Forrest Gump and A Man Called Otto if you need somewhere to start.

one of my favorites to suggest is a classic called Paper Moon.

It's black and white and has that slower pacing of some older movies. I think it also stands up and has the kind of comedy that endures. We watch it every year around the holidays.

You can also have a look at what some other watch parties are showing.

Here's a calendar of events on Mastodon & Bluesky

FYI in 20 minutes, #KungFuSat on Mastodon is starting the Jim Jarmusch crime drama Ghost Dog: Way of the Samurai .

You can also use an online service to keep a wish list of films or see other people's lists. Many people use Letterboxd or Trakt. I've just started using the fediverse service NeoDB.
