I have a lot of hesitation about this. Going to take it on a case by case basis, but I will definitely consider posting more in the main reviews thread.
I would like to say to those of you who do not go to the Marathon Thread, you are missing out on some the best board discussions, because there is a focus missing in the general Movie Thread. You watch an opinion build and change over the course of multiple movies. It's something I think would be lacking if
Mr. & Mrs. 1SOs Merry Musical Marathon wasn't in its own thread. (I would also add that the
Definitive Bond marathon fits perfectly in the Marathon thread, since I can see others going down the same path in the future.
I definitely plan to finish my
Directors of Shame Marathon in its current format. I'm in the homestretch.
I also hope Bondo will agree with me to keep the
Mike Leigh Retrospective as is for consistency sake.
I will probably use the new format for my next Marathon, a combination of filmmakers Akira Kurosawa, Francois Truffaut and Satyajit Ray.
How come we're not making the same suggestion for the Movie Dictator Club sub board? I see the difficulty with the MDC, but it seems to me that the
List of Shame reviews should get the same link treatment, especially if you keep the
main thread which already links to deshamed reviews.
