Any regular visitors/users out there? Any ideas on how FS and Auteurs might be able to work together... cross promotion?

Do a Marathon of films they have streaming? Also, they're now call MUBI I think.

yeah they are MUBI now that they have connected with twitter and facebook. I just wanted to watch movies with them and now they want me to give status updates!

I think a short review every week of something they are screening there would be good, in return they can give away free criterion collection DVDs for massacre theatre!

Yeah, marathon seems like the logical thing to do. I don't know how often they update their database but maybe you could mention the occasional update or mention when an interesting film is streaming for free on their site?

I agree with the comments above.

There is a section on MUBI called "Garage."

From what I've seen, it's a part of the site where filmmakers can show off some of the projects they have worked on.

Perhaps you guys could review some of the user made films.
