So we’re having a Qt3 Movie Podcast pledge drive for the next few weeks, announced at the opening of the podcast for Closed Circuit (our 200th episode!). Other relevant news is announced there, but you’ll have to listen to find out what that is. It’ll be revealed soon enough anyway assuming you visit the front page.
The pledge drive/listener’s choice lottery works as follows: donate a dollar using the PayPal button on the front page before September 23rd, and with it, your pick of a movie you want us to see for the podcast. It can be any movie: old, new, classic, horrible, a personal favorite, or even something that isn’t actually a movie, like a documentary. On the 23rd, we’ll use random.org to pick one of the votes, and that movie will be the subject of our next podcast (the September 30th episode). It’ll get the full treatment, including a Kellywand synopsis.
The gimmick is that if you donate more than a dollar, each dollar counts as a vote! So if you really want to subject us to The Phantom Menace or that Star Trek where they meet God or one of the Matrix sequels, consider donating ten dollars to boost its chances. We’ll track which movies are in the top running over the next two podcasts, so stay tuned. And thanks so much for your support, whether you donate or not. We like to say we would do this even if no one listened, but it means so much more to us when we know you guys are enjoying it.
Thanks for your work to Kelly, Chrisitien and Tom. You know you will get in trouble when you have to watch my pick. THE FALLS by Peter Greenaway, a 3 hour mockumentary about the violent unkown event (VUE).
Miami Connection is painfully bad. It is always fun watching a 30 year old play a college student. Just remember to always be against the ninja. Also Red Letter Media (Youtube Starwars review guys) did a little mini review of Miami Connection that’s worthwhile.
I don’t know if movie theaters charge twelve bucks for a ticket in your respective necks of the woods, but I got you guys tickets for a week of podcasts. Democracy has never been so much fun!
