Organizing The Big BOND MARATHON with your friends (...to prepare for "SPECTRE")
I tried to post some information about organizing Bond marathons in this topic: http://www.mi6community.com/index.php?p=/discussion/851/tell-us-all-about-your-bondathon#latest
But I guess it's more related to watching a lot of Bond films on your own. I didn't get any reply on the aspect of organizing real Bond marathons with friends, like this insanely big one:
So I think it's a good idea to dedicate a topic about organizing real marathons with friends.....or other geeky Bond fans/friends :-P. I will organize one big marathon on September 12th. The schedule will have 5 Bond film screenings on my 49 inch Philips Ambilight 800 Hz LED-tv with Bose Sound System. We will have some breaks in between off course:
I was thinking to focus purely on Fleming-esque films, like FRWL, LTK, but then I thought, there has to be some variation in it as well, as not only Bond fans will attend. All the films have to be very colorful and exotic as well. They also need to be linked with each other, with some kind of narrative that expands more films than just one.
What do you think of the schedule I made :-)??

Hey @PropertyOfALady. I am many times on my mobile phone posting replies. But I don't know how to read the wall from the mobile version of the forum.
Will have a look tonight on my -old- laptop ok?
Now I saw it hehe: http://forum.blu-ray.com/showthread.php?t=50901
Thanks so much! It even mentions the very rare "Casino Royale" steelbook that was only released in Germany :-D!.
You have them no :-P? Friends?
Depending on what movie is new that year it's either a Star Trek, Batman or James Bond marathon. If there's no new one of those three franchises we mix them together which is always fun too.
This year each of my friends chose one movie as we usually do:
It'll be in viewing order:
Dr. No
Live And Let Die
For Your Eyes Only
The Living Daylights (my pick)
Casino Royale
extra: if we are not too tired (or drunk...)
Diamonds Are Forever
my daughter stays with my mother that day/night ;)
we're watching it on my new 65" Samsung Curved UHD 4K 3D TV set with a powerful Samsung Soundbar that is ear-shattering :))
he he, gracias por la invitación amigo
:D
my wife is Spanish by the way ;) from Ourense, Galicia, not really near Barcelona :P but anyway
She's a big fan herself :)
Edited, my wife's command:))
Her favourites are GE, DAD, LTK, CR, QOS, SF her favourite actor is Daniel Craig by far nowadays, Brosnan and Dalton are second.
And your kids? Indoctrinated yet :-P?
It's a very difficult thing to do. Schedules would be most of the time conflicting, as everyone has a job (I hope so). But the marathon video from my opening post was a walk-in event.
I'll do something similar, but only for the above 5 films. Anyway, only THREE MORE DAYS :-O!!! I already bought some trays of red bull hehehe.
This is the schedule by the way (GMT+1 European Time, Madrid/Amsterdam timezone):
Based on a list of guests I made, around 8 people come to my tiny, little studio flat :-P. Wish me luck guys!
You can always 'sync-watch' with us :-P. We start "Thunderball" at 4:30 GMT+1
LOL :P. And then.....how can we see Craig's best Bond outings then? :-P
how did the bondathon go? Did everyone stay awake until the very end??
first is the obvious.. rewatching Casino Royale, Quantum Of Solace and Skyfall
the second is a SPECTRE marathon - which includes: Dr. No, From Russia With Love, Thunderball, You Only Live Twice, On Her Majesty's Secret Service and Diamonds Are Forever.
