When you get a little money, buy horror; and if any is left, buy food and clothes. Priorities man!

That's sort of how it works already

Great idea, Chrono! I'd love to join live chat, but I'm on PST time, and don't think the timing will work out with work and family. I'll try to follow along though -- sounds fun.

Regarding live chat, Skype is good but you'd have to become Contacts with everyone in the chat, which requires getting each username, making the request, then waiting for them to accept. It's also a bit "permanent" for your account, since you'll now be Contacts with everyone.

Google Hangouts is probably a bit easier since I *think* you just need to know each Google account (or I think non-gmail addresses work too) and add them to a Hangout (we use them at work every week, but I've never actually set one up). The downside is that some users may not have Chrome installed, which I think is required (or the Hangouts app on mobile).

The up-and-comer that might take over them both is HipChat, but since it's currently less common, I'm guessing no one has it installed, and it would take some learning to administer a Room since it's different than the other two more common choices.

OMG. I know. I actually started watching it last night and then fell asleep. FAIL.

Yeah, it's tough trying to find a time that works for everyone (happens to me at work every time I try to schedule a "global" conference call! ) - Maybe with Sunday nights being a little earlier you can join. If not, then definitely the discussion threads.

YouTube actually has a lot of movies available, too - Might be worth looking at as well.

Thanks! Hopefully you'll be able to make it. I'll post up the schedule for this coming week either Thursday or Friday.

And thanks for the rundown on these - Maybe I'll stay away from Skype because not everyone would have it and that way people don't have to download anything. I'll look into Google Hangouts & HipChat a bit more too.

Remember back in AOL days when all you had to do was create a chat room???

If you can, we can re-introduce the HDC Horry Awards.

Nope. There's no live capability with this station, and I don't even own a mic anymore.

This sounds good. I'll see if I can finish some stuff and join up in October. If anything I'll list a bunch of movies that I haven't seen yet.

Awesome!

What I was actually thinking was encouraging people to watch movies within the same "Theme" even if they're not watching the exact movies that I am - That way for "Frankenstein Week" We could discuss other spinoffs and etc.
