      Me too.
      If DMT didn't exist we would have to invent it. There has to be a weirdest thing. Once we have the concept weird, there has to be a weirdest thing. And DMT is simply it.

                ummm, I may be too young to appreciate this one. I'd be pretty exclusively picking modern artsy flicks if I had to choose B/W movies. Not my thing unfortunately.

                  Me? No. B&W is not my thing at all.
                  I'm just here for the baseball.

                      OK we have our players.

                      Do we want rules or some parameters? Throw some ideas around in this thread.

                      I will be out today so I can chime in tonight. We can finalize the order, rounds, and rules (if there are any) tomorrow.

                      Lets plan on starting Friday.

                        How many rounds? I count 6 players so 10 rounds would be 60 movies.

                          I'm good with whatever you guys decide.

                            I think 10 movies per participant is a good number. It's like building your top 10 all-time movies list, but in black & white only.

                            The only rule I think we need qualification on is the Wizard of Oz rule. What qualifies a movie as black & white?

                              sure I'll give it a shot
                              It certainly feels that way. But I'm distrustful of that feeling and am curious about evidence.
