So, we got 9 YAYs (and a TV guide update from @zuko)
@linus
@thewaystation
@deafmetal
@thewaystation
@burningtapes
@hatter313
@dollarhyde
@spencer
@chiefbrody

I think that's enough to keep it going a wee while longer, and I suspect a few others would join (@disco?)

Now we've 2 things to decide.

1. The film. Let's open nominations. The only condition is it has to be a film that the OST has been released by one of the labels on here.
2. The sync. Based on the first 2 syncs, Sundays at 22.00 UK time worked. That gives us Sundays 10th, 17th, 24th and 31st, I think.

Once we have 3 nominations, start voting on your choice of film and date and I'll tally the votes.

Cheers.

I'm definitely in, @chief.

Glad you're keeping this going, especially the sync-thing.

Sorry I lunched the last one - if my life in April was a movie, the trailer voice-over would be...

"Nobody could have predicted the onslaught that would occur...the lucky ones died first!"

@disco, glad you're back with us.

@dollar, yeah I think if people throw up some nominations (1 each), I'll start a vote based on the first 3 noms. Seem fair?

Oh, and I should've said, once the noms are up for the vote, we'll vote for a date too. Cheers.

I'm going to nominate Prince of Darkness. I've only seen it once and didn't think it was too great. Picked up the reissue on DW a few months ago, and I'm thinking it might be time to give it a second chance.

One more nomination and we'll get voting.

By thewaystation
#64004
Thanks for the nominations. I'll go for Spawn as well. All dates mentioned should be fine, apart from May 10.

Any date but the 31st.

O.k I'm in. I was hanging out for the noms,any Sunday is good for me.
It's a shame LTROI crashed and burned the movie experience for a month as it's an amazing movie, but probably more of an emotional/personal watch
If we're voting on these 3 I'll go
1. Deadly Spawn (as I've never seen it)
2.Prince of Darkness (as it's been years and Alice Cooper's in it)
3.City (cause it's beyond bonkers, although very entertaining)

For future nominations I would like to put forward Scanners

I'm planning on closing the voting on Wednesday 12pm (UK time).

@chuck
You've expressed a preference for the 10th, but @thewaystation has said any date other than the 10th. The only other unpopular date is the 31st. Can you do 17th/24th, or is the 10th the only date you can do? I don't think I'll try to keep everyone happy for all syncs, but in this case, we could keep everyone happy (so far) with the 17th or 24th.

I vote for Deadly Spawn. It's the one I have viewed the least. Are we still planning on 10pm GMT? If so, I vote for the 17th. I'm going to be out of town at MDF on the 24th.

OK, the votes are in. Deadly Spawn wins.

I might re-think the voting on dates so that people let me know when they can't watch. Based on the responses above, some people couldn't do the 10th, 24th or 31st. That leaves us the 17th that no-one said they definitely couldn't do. We'll go with that. @chuck, if you can't make the 17th, please accept my apologies, whilst you voted for the 10th, I wasn't sure about you being in or out on other dates, so I've gone with the only date someoneone didn't vote against. I've learnt a lesson there.

Cheers all, I'll set up a thread.

Well the latest sync went well, with the exception of a timing hitch (special apologies to the UK 'first wave', including @BurningTapes and @liftman).

Anyone who wasn't on the sync really needs to go and have a look at @Evan's model Spawn - amazing.

I figure we might as well start the nominations for the next sync now.

@Dagar nominated SCANNERS too late for last month, so we can start with that as Option 1. I won't carry over in future as it could get too cumbersome to keep track of if there are loads of nominations - we'll start afresh each month.

@disco, are you still happy to arrange the sync part, and I'll count the votes? By my reckoning we'll have 4 options for Sunday syncs in June:
- June 7
- June 14
- June 21
- June 28

I'll open voting for the film AND date once we have three noms.
