80s Film Club

(1/2) > >>

Giovanni Magnus:
This was an idea I had for an event.

Since the theme is the 1980s, why not an 80s film club, where we show some of the best films, based on popular vote?

Every morning, a different film genre is picked (i.e. sci-fi, horror, comedy, action, drama...) and four films are picked each day and published in the Daily Eurofurence and on Twitter, with the one that will be showing that evening chosen by popular demand by voting on the Eurofurence Twitter feed, or with a ballot box by con-ops.

gummi_bjorn:
good idea but one problem.
who has to supply the films?
and how about the copyright laws regarding public showings of the films??

sorry to pour vinegar in your lemonade, but the potential of a lawsuit and possible fines has to be adressed.

but if we can find solutions regarding this.
i am all for the idea!

best of luck

Arovos:
If it is a small event I think we should be safe. like 10-20 people watching. We do not make proffit on it as well.
So again, I think we will be safe :)

We could say we're studying them and reviewing it, then get away with fair use.

And I'd assume most of these would be on Netflix.

gummi_bjorn:
well if we can swing it this way, then lets go.
i just want to be sure that no one gets a nasty surprise after the con.
so if you get it together i'll try to be there as time and hangovers allows ;)
see ya in august.
