Lets try this experiment
Start watching Big Trouble in Little China at 7pm, Central Time, USA (as precisely as you can) … and come here for live posts as you watch!
This is ~24 hours from the time of this post
I could set up a synchronized watch party for this (complete with video player and live chat) on cytu.be if there’s interest.
I wholeheartedly encourage this!
It may be a bit late to get interest right now for this cycle/month (hope I’m wrong), in which case I/we may tap your shoulder next month, as this is still a bit of an experiment.
But as I’m not on top of that sort of thing and not in the major time zones, I’m not really placed to organise it … so help and self-organisation is very much appreciated!
It shouldn’t be too big of a deal for me. Just create a new account on Cytube (so I’m not using one linked to my real identity) and turn my HTTP server back on. I just so happen to have an MP4 copy of Big Trouble In Little China already downloaded.
One thing, though – I am going to spend all day tomorrow on an airplane so if you could push this out one more day I’d be able to help.

A little short notice I know … I thought it’d be worth trying the experiment (we’re following the monsterdon model for those who know of it)

I couldn’t find what monsterdon model was, what is it?

Good question! It’s a movie watching thing done over on mastodon that’s been going for a while. Works pretty much like this, runs once a week I think, and is focused on classic/old monster Movies.
Here’s a quick explanatory post: hachyderm.io/@SnoopJ/111004128276431553
