So I was thinking with lots of us still somewhat-stuck at home these days, it might be fun to have an NTWF Movie NightTM! (Or, "night"). I've been informed these have happened before, but sadly I was not around for them. Essentially, someone (I'll start) will stream a film, and we'll all watch and eat real/virtual popcorn and complain about continuity errors together.
Timezones are horrible beasts that will undoubtedly try to interfere, but I've tried to put some reasonable options in the poll. If there's interest, we could potentially do multiple ones. My first idea for a film was Hamilton, but we can also vote on those.
I thought we'd do this on Discord; if there are those who don't have it and want to participate, we can definitely come up with another option.
If you think this is a cool idea but can't make any of these times, I've made a mistake in converting between timezones, or you have a suggestion, please let me know! :)
(Note: BST = GMT + 1, EDT = Eastern Daylight Time = GMT - 4, or BST - 5)
EDIT: To clarify, I planned to do this using Discord voicechat/sharing, but if there are people not on Discord who want to join, let me know and we can think of another option for streaming.
EDIT #2: Planning for this to happen next week, so July 24, 25, or 26, to give everyone enough time to vote. Hopefully though, we could make it a semi-regular thing if there's enough interest.

I'm on Eastern Standard Time, so I'm pretty flexible. But I think quite a few folks here are from Europe?
I was also thinking Emperor's New Groove, because the movie is quotable as anything and really, really funny. But I'm game for anything.

Emperor's New Groove would definitely be a good one!
... Also probably should've said that I'm planning for next week (July 24, 25 or 26), to give everyone enough time to weigh in on preferred times. (Have I mentioned I'm very bad at organizing things... D: )

I would love to see Emperor's New Groove! And would defs be interested in this being a Repeated Thing (maybe even in different timezones so others who can't make the above suggested times have a chance to hang out and watch films too? Have already talked with Kat about one of us hosting one in our better-waking-hours at some stage.)
