This is cool. I have actually been meaning to start a thread like this but I didn't want to start something which I might fail to sustain.
Maybe we can have a special screening every week? If there's anyone here who has a projector at home, or a big LCD screen, that'd be nice. We can screen two films a week, one is the host's choice, the other by the voters.
Not a film critic here but I sure know how to appreciate good movies. I have my own personal collection as well, and I can recommend some. It's always nice to have people you can discuss with in terms of casting, script, execution, verisimilitude, or simply how a movie makes you feel (much like when reading a book).
At the moment, I'm watching Egyptian movies I saw in the plane over and over and over again. Keeps me cheerful. :p I've been downloading Arabic movies but don't know where to get their subtitles. I saw "West Beirut" too, I like it. :)
I would also like to share my personal quirk, that I'm not drawn to watching movies that are current, or still current. I have this weird inclination to let them age first, forgotten, before I would finally have the interest to see them. Just a quirk.
