Finally the actual watchalong post! It’s time! I got my dinner (butter chicken! I made it myself by pouring sauce from a jar onto chicken!) and I am very happy.
Continue readingI’m thinking about moving it to the afternoon this year. Partly because I want to sleep in, partly because I want to make it convenient for more people!
Continue readingHappy Sunday! I’ve got coffee ordered and being delivered shortly, the sun is out, Albie Dog has been fed, let’s do this thing! With the usual priviso that if no one shows up within the first 15-20 minutes, I cancel.
Continue readingHappy Friday! On yesterday’s post I wrote “Jaane Tu Ya Jaane Na” when I meant “Yeh Jawaani Hai Deewani”, like a FOOL. But now I’m thinking about it and thinking “yeah, I want to see that movie again”. So let’s just do it!
Continue readingHappy Sunday! I spent most of yesterday in bed, and today I may consider trying to do something productive, starting with watchalong!
Continue readingSuch a horrible week for me! But thank goodness, light at the end of the tunnel, I get to see Jab Harry Met Sejal. And also, spend most of tomorrow in bed. Heaven.
Continue readingNaina, a new commentator, is SRK obsessed and unable to make our usual watchalong times. And I know there are others who like to join but can’t at the usual times. So just to shake things up, let me know if you can/want to join, if Saturday or Sunday works better for you, and approximately what time (midday, morning, afterning, evening) Chicago time works for you.
Continue readingHappy Sunday! It’s overcast and snowy outside and both me and Albie Dog are feeling grumpy. So this film had better live up to it’s feel good rep!
Continue readingThanks to Genevieve’s fervent wish for a NOT romance, and the general “eh, 50/50” attitude of most of the rest of y’all, I’m going with Double XXL!!!
Continue readingI was gonna get better this week about watching and reviewing new movies, and then literally half the staff at work got sick (’tis the season for colds, apparently), so I barely have time to write this post. WatchAlong now looks like my best bet for seeing some of the cool films y’all are recommending!
Continue readingOkay, I know almost all of you have already seen it, but it’s a whole different thing watching it in a watchalong! Join in with the comments below, have brilliant new thoughts, and be all swoony together.
Continue readingI’m being scientific here, and just pulling the watchalongs with the top number of comments. Highly recommend you skim through all the comments on all the posts and then place your pick! Just click on the name of the movie to find the post.
Continue readingWoops, not sure anyone actually confirmed they could join me for this. Oh well, if it’s just me I’ll work on my puzzle while I watch. Still the best way to start the new year!
Continue readingHappy Sunday! I got my coffee, I got my little dog snuggled against me, I am all set to enjoy this lovely film with y’all. Unless no one shows up within the first 15 minutes in which case I cancel and do something else 🙂
Continue readingOne of the lucky few DCIB readers who met Shahrukh in real life described the sensation as like Christmas morning. So it makes total sense to call an SRK movie a “Christmas movie”. Right? Or at least, I think it makes sense to all DCIBians.
Continue readingI’m only giving you two options! And they are very very different from each other. White Christmas I think we watched last year and people enjoyed it more than they expected. Also, I love it. So we can rewatch. And Chennai Express is Chennai Express.
Continue readingWoot, Dilwale! For Christmas! Kind of! Anyway, it feels Christmassy to me. And a nice relaxing way to spend a Sunday morning. Oh, and since RSVPs were low, reminder that if no one shows up within the first 15 min, I will just reschedule.
Continue readingOkay, I’ve made a decision! I’m going big, Dilwale! If other folks show up, it will be super super fun. And if no one shows up by 15 after, I get to spend the time wrapping and packing presents instead and we watch Dilwale next week!
Continue readingI was thinking, Dilwale is a Christmas movie, right? Sort of? And also an Indian film which is technically the Brief for this blog. On the other hand, if you don’t care and are willing to indulge my wild stabs at Western films, I have other silly American Christmas options in my head.
Continue readingYaaaaaaaaaaaaay, a nice Christmas black and white romance. With smart dialogue and a baby and a cool department store setting.
Continue readingYaaaaaaaay, we get to have a watchalong!!! And we get to watch one of my favorite movies! Clever, light, fun, romantic, and a baby.
Continue readingAfter soooooooooo many weekends off, I am back! I really really REALLY want to watch a movie with y’all! So the most important question is, what day and time works best?
Continue readingI swear, I’m not trying to convert you into Christmas people. You can stay Halloween people or Easter People or Eid people or whatever. But there are a lot of great stupid fun songfilled romantic heartwarming Christmas movies that I think we would all enjoy.
Continue readingIt’s Sunday, I’ve ordered coffee, I’ve walked the dog, I am ready to watch a nice South Indian version of Jane Austen.
Continue readingYaaaaaay, Sunday WatchAlong! On the Sunday when Daylight Savings Time ends in Chicago, so remember to double check the time difference!
