Hey Brokies!

I'm watching Brokeback Mountain ... AGAIN ... this Friday Evening starting at 7:45pm eastern (US).  May I suggest that as many as possible watch it at the same time?  I thought it'd be good if we didn't have to watch it alone.

Hey fellow Brokies...

I'm watching my DVD this Friday, Sept. 28, at 7:45pm eastern (US).  Thought it might be neat if we had a "mass" viewing.

I'll bring the kleenex and the whiskey!

Right. I'll look up the time difference and let you know if I can sync. Anyone else in for this?

Its always a good idea to sync the exact start and end with phone calls. Even international calls are cheap these days.

I have decided not to as well. I just can't be up until 4 in the morning as I have PLMD and need my pills at about 11.  :(

 :h) dear guyinjax, nice to met you here  ^f^.  I live in Belgium so I am not able to watch the movie at the same time as you.  But, I can watch it on my TV because I have the DVD  ;).

How many times has you seen BBM ? I can't count  :).

March 24 2008 will be Oscar Night... Who cares?   ::)  ^o

What about a synchronized watch of BBM?  The Oscars are airing at 8pm Eastern Time, which is 3am U.K., 4am Western Europe... It could be late for many but if you're interested let us know. :)

Jay, sounds good! This happens to be the time of Easter celebrations, March 24 is the second day of Easter, Easter Monday, I think. This sounds odd and late  :s) - thinking out loud by myself -do you mean February 24?

I thought so, Cham. Well, I'm ready to watch BBM synchronised Feb 24. I think the time will be 5 am here where I live.

Syncronised DVD watching & Watching chain
« Reply #354 on: Jan 18, 2008, 02:05 PM »
Syncronised DVD watching is fun. But now I'd like to propose a watching chain.  ;D

It works like this. One person starts watching, towards the end of the film the next one starts. Got it? Watch and hand on. It is great accross time zones. It is even possible to have brokies watching BBM at every moment of world time the clock round, with as few as 12 people in the chain, as the film lasts about 2 hours! If all was organised well you could even watch it twice - at the beginning and end of the chain! :clap:

Sounds interesting. Let us know if you get one started. :)

If I can, I'll watch on the 24th. Last year I was in Bay City watching with Brokies. It would be wonderful to watch with you all again, even from my own home. ^f^

It might be best to do this before and after viewings when there are get togethers.

 :h) Dear brokies,

If you have a "Satellite broadcast", you can watch "Brokeback Mountain" on the chain "Cine Premier" at 20h45.

We ought to watch the movie in memory of Heath Ledger  :\'(
