The other weekend, I was not having the best of weekends, so I put in the Original Trilogy. (Star Wars....there's only one return and it's not of the king it's of the JEDI.)

As I was watching the movies, I decided to Tweet my favorite lines and my thoughts about the trilogy as I watched. I logged somewhere around 400 tweets by the end of the weekend and had a good time. I probably annoyed some people, but I had fun.

So...my question is this. (Knowing some people have stolen my idea.) Is this something I should do again?

Discuss.

Depends on what movies. BTTF would be cool.

I think you should take a phone with you to a movie theater and text the tweets to twitter while watching the movie. On second thought, that might cost a lot... OK, never mind, how about... Batman Begins?

Or you guys could create another twitter account for SHoE2 and you and Derek could tweet from that account while watching Smallville episodes! Very Happy

Well guess you must do the Superman movies now.


Or perhaps you need to pick a movie that you do not love, but was very popular. You could critique.


But I think what I liked about it was your obvious enthusiasm. EH.... Do what you want man.

How about Tweet November? Or Tweet Home Alabama! The Tweet Hereafter? Tweet and Lowdown? La Dolce Tweeta? Or maybe the DeNiro/Pacino classic Tweat?

Alright, flame broil me. I deserve it.

Robin Hood: Men in Tights or The Princess Bride. Both are classic comedies and are amazing.

You dont wanna do funny movies cause they are already funny. You wanna do a action or drama movie and have the Bighonker humor behind it.

I would say the New Star Wars Trilogy. Many people hated the movies, but I enjoy them. X-Men maybe? Hook? Ghostbusters? Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles? <- Do that one...cause I wanna watch them again.
