Okay, this means the people who wanted to participate from the east coast of America will have to wake up a wee bit early. But our global friends have suffered enough with our Friday afternoon time! Let them have the nicer schedule!
Special international watchalong!!!!! 7am Chicago time!!!!
Now, what shall we see? It is Karan Johar’s birthday, so it MUST be a Dharma film:
Kuch Kuch Hota Hai
We could all hate on Little Anjali together! There is no greater joy!
Baar Baar Dekho
Sid M. is cute, Kat is endearing, great soundtrack.
Student of the Year 2
Kabaddi kabaddi kabaddi kabaddi! Will Smith!
OK Jaanu
I haven’t even seen it myself! But I’ve seen the Tamil original so I know it is a cute story, and ARK is in it so I know it has a cute hero.

Ugh I would love to watch SOTY2 with you all but not sure I want a 5 am wakeup call…although it’s entirely possible that the new dog will wake me a close to that time so maybe

I will send out psychic dog messages to get him to get you up.

There’s a good chance based on the last few days. 🙃

Not sure if I’ll manage to get myself up that early, but my vote would be KKHH, it’s one of my all time favorites. SOTY2 would be second.

Oh, I have faith in you! You can do it! Or at least, swing in for the last hour.

KKHH or Ok Jaanu would be my top choices but I am up for any of them.

I’m gonna guess SOTY2 will win. But don’t worry, you’ll love it! It’s like SOTY1 but with less depth and realism.

I have seen SOTY2 and I am so up for making fun of how much buffer and older Tiger looks than everyone else, especially in the shirtless training scenes. Looking forward to it!

I’m in! Yay! I can see from the other votes that I have no hope of prevailing, but I’m in a BBD place right now. Beautiful people, slightly silly plot, nice songs. (Maybe SOTY 2 fits that bill? Can I watch if I haven’t seen SOTY 1?)

You can definitely watch SOTY2 without knowing anything about SOTY1. Oh, have you seen Breaking Away? SOTY2 is Breaking Away, by way of Jo Jeeta Wohi Sikander, and with Kabaddi instead of bikes.

You can’t do SOTY2 when I’m not there, so.

Then you will have to find a way to be there! Leave work early! 7am chicago time shouldn’t be impossible for you.

Sadly, it is because it’s the middle of the afternoon. Oh well.
