Huh. Sounds interesting. I rarely if ever watch TV, so I couldn’t do the TV one, but if I can think of a film I know very little about, I might join in.
Do you want us to choose films we specifically think we’ll enjoy, or just any film? And how far off do you want these movies to be coming out? Presumably pretty soon. I’m pretty sure I’m going to be going full-out 5th degree on Batman 3 The Dark Knight Rises, for example, but it’s not coming out for another two years.
I just thought of something I might want to do, either Tron Legacy or Cowboys & Aliens. I know very little about them other than the odd piece of information I picked up from skimming through io9’s Morning Spoilers. I never saw the original Tron, by the way, and I haven’t seen a trailer for either (although I have seen posters for Tron Legacy).
This sounds like a really interesting experiment. I’ll think about joining, but I’d like to be the total Movie Monk. :)
You also don’t need to necessarily know nothing about a film to join the experiment. If you know quite a bit about something you’re already interested in, you could very well saddle up in the fifth degree slot if you feel so inclined.
Ah, well, I know nothing about movies coming out right now. That’s why I suggested the monk.
Hmm….this sounds interesting. I might do a 3rd degree or a 5th degree, depending on the movie. Now I just have to find a movie….
Okay, so what about reading something like the IMDb or Wikipedia page for a movie? Which categories would that be allowed/disallowed under? Would it be OK to read those pages if you ONLY read things like the cast/director/premise? (I’m assuming you’re at least letting us learn about the premise, even for the first degree!)
I’m thinking about doing a second degree for Cowboys & Aliens. I recently found out it was based on a comic book (although I’ve never read the source material) and io9 seems to be positive about it (although I haven’t read any articles on it, this is just the impression I got from reading the article titles), so I think I might enjoy it.
I might do step 3 for The Fighter if I end up seeing it. I haven’t seen a trailer, but I’ve read a few reviews.
