Default New idea for Subsim meeting

What do you guys think about having a movie-o-thon at night? Or will we be too busy playing SHx and DW to bother with watching anything. I have a lot of good navy (war movies) at home, it would be my contribution to the event.:hmm:

Just think... we could make fun of U-571 all night, like MST3K.

I voted any naval themed movie would be great just to keep it on subject. But, really, any war movie would work.

Does Neal have a ub3r theather system in his house?

Besides being totally outlandish in it's story telling and dumb some parts, I did enjoy the movie.

The Uncut version of Das Boot. At almost 5 hours it's a marathon all by itself.

Perhaps someone at the meeting could set up a live web cam for viewers all over the world to drop in and say Hi ...

Join us live Houston, Texas (during recreation time) Subsim meeting 2008

Just a thought ... lots of people coming this time or at least looks like it.

This would be great. With sound naturally. We could even use the chat (mirc) on Subsim mainpage to say them hellooooo. Perhaps a SubBrother 2008, bunch of subnuts are sealed to a house with no subsims.

I'd say 1942 (or earlier) movie would be a good choice. Not necessarily war movie, but something that perhaps was shown in the Cavalla during war times?

You wouldn't hear much from the ferret

Come over to the GWX TS channel and you'll soon get my drift.....either that or everyones speakers just happen to be faulty at the same time
