Transformers: The Movie - The Second Watch-a-long! Rolling Out Sept 24th

Saturday mornings are (supposed) to be good for me!  PST.

I will change my avatar to Ultra Magnus.  I can take the punishment, but I can't deal with that now.

(goes to get Transformers DVD case)

Open, dammit.  OPEN!

I think Sat morning PST for Nooj would be wee hours of Sunday morning for me, but I could probably make that. Being way out here on this tiny South Pacific outpost I'm the beggar that can't be a chooser.

Yup.  I'm very accommodating.

I am down for this.  And I totally call dibs on Kup.

Nah, early hours of Sunday is actually fine for me. I'm used to getting up at 2 or 3 in the morning to watch United win FA Cup finals or The All Blacks lose in South Africa anyway.

Well my new job means no more weekends or evenings at work so I am back rolling with you guys.

As for my Avatar I shall accept none less than Megatron.

I have a confession to make,

I very recently bought a G1 Optimus Prime and Skywarp on EBay and I'm currently bidding on a Starscream.  I wounder if i should make one of those my Avatar.

If you're gonna ride, gents, ride in style!

Namely with me on board.

I'm all about getting as many people as we can for this again, no matter what time that might entail having it at.

Are we going to try to use the chat room this time?

We can try the chat room. But doing it on the boards worked out great last time. I say we don't fix what isn't broken.

I'm in, by the way. And I will be returning as The Decepticon Logo.

Now, let's settle on a day and time.

I will do my best to take part in this, as I only managed to watch up until Optimus' death last year. I can't commit to any particular time due to multiple part-time jobs, but I will do my damndest to be there with you all. 

Until the day that all are one.

Quite so.

I can only hope you'll straighten out all us Turbo-Roddin' young punks.
 

I do have a lawn to chase you off of now.  So that's progress.

I'd love to do this, fellas, but I honestly don't know if I'd be able to make it time-wise. I'll probably just read the whole thing afterwards.

I should be down for a rerun of this gem.  Saturday mornings are fine, but some other time would probably work, too.

I'll bring out my Ravage avatar again.  My Ravatar.

This sounds like fun. Count me in. Also PST. I'm more than willing to be flexible for what the more seasoned chewers agree upon for a viewing time.

Since Kup is taken, and Grimlock belongs to one more deserving than I; Kranix (doomed orphan of Lithune) shall be my pick.

Would be interesting to watch this again. Haven't seen it in about 5 years. Was looking on amazon for a copy and the blu ray version is going for £90 ($145) which seems very expensive..

ba weep gra na weep ninny bong! as they say..

I'd certainly be up for it. But let's try for sometime in September. What do you think?

I like th cut of your Jib Mike but I can't make it tomorrow. Late Sept is good though

Yea, this weekend is no good for me.  Hahaha.

Yeah, I'll need a week or so to start tracking down a dvd store which still has a copy to rent.

First I need to track down a dvd store which is still open.

You're dead right Mike, I'll be new to it. I'm swept along by the wave caused by all the love you mad fuckers have for it.

And I can't wait to see how hot Megan Fox looks in cartoon form.

Shouldn't that be RC-licious

I like idea of not planning this too far ahead, but I'm really glad it wasn't today since I'm only noticing the more recent comments now. Late September sounds boss.

I'd really love it if we can accommodate everybody this time so that folks like Chris Spider and any other curious parties can be a part of this. Every time I think about what happened last year with Judas Booth missing out my circuits sizzle.

So stoked you're joining us, by the way, Bucho!

Right gang, I'm back after self-imposed mini-exile due to football related heartache. Now that that's taken care of, let's get this sucker sorted.

I'm thinking the 24th. If that's too soon or people know already that's no good for them, let's get that out in the open so we can all agree on a date. We're in danger of losing momentum though, so we could maybe do with a quick show of hands again.

Red Five standing by. Or something Energon-related.

24th sounds good to me.

That might be tricky for me. I think thats the weekend I'm Farm sitting for the in-laws, will have to check and get back to you.

It's probably still possible I'll see what I can do.

Agreed. As fantastic as it would have been if our two-minds understanding had worked for everyone, the idea of doing this without Ken does not compute.

I'd still love to see everyone who took part last time come back (or as many as possible.) As well as all of those who've expressed an interest. Pending final confirmation from folks, might I suggest at least some of us rock the advertising signatures once more? They really seemed to help get the word out last year, a superb idea from our very own Optimus.

Okay... The 24th it is. We doing a Saturday morning deal again?

....

I am rather enamored of my current sig. But I will make the necessary adjustment a little later.

One shall stand, and one shall fall.

I'm down. What time is kick off?

I mean launch?

Guys the 24th is out for me.  thats they day we take over looking after the Charity/Farm for a week. Going to be a day of hand overs for me. :(

Inside I'm noo!'ing like Picard when Alfre Woodard suggested he blow up his ship.

I've already said I'd prefer nobody be left behind. Having a Transformers Watch-a-long without Ken is nigh inconceivable to me. What do you guys think we should do?
