So... I was thinkin' to start up a Sailor Moon Discussion Club thing where members would:

* watch a particular episode of the anime
* read a particular sailor moon manga/codename sailor v act
* watch a particular musical
* watch a a particular pgsm episode
* watch a particular movie/special

and then all have a discussion about the epicness we just saw/read then select something for the next week.

I wanted to get some some feedback on who would be interested in signing up? Perhaps we could start a newsletter or something before asking people to join a club. Because if it turns out that no one's interesting it'll just wind up being a sad miki singing lonely distance in a corner.

Does this sound like a good idea to anyone?

I like this idea. We had something similar for the new manga releases of Sailor Moon, but it sorta died.

Yeah! I'm totally in!

I was thinking more out of order and maybe more formalized as a club? We could maybe just use the chatbox afterwards ^^ I promise i won't force the musicals on everyone!

This sounds splendid. What continuity do you think will be up for discussion first?

I'm hoping for multi-series randomocity! Most likely starting with the anime...

Also I'm up for live streaming any of the episodes since I have pretty much everything downloaded onto my computer, with the exception of all the Myus (i'm working on it) and all the R2 releases from SMC. ^^

Also, I have a live stream account...its just working out a good day/night to do this. ^_^

If it was more of a club i think we would be easier to coordinate rather than just having a thread

I'm in!

I think with everyone watching at the same time, we'll have the time zones issue and everyone's schedule. Maybe if we all took a week to watch an episode and then all discussed on a particular day? Then we can feel distinguished and intellectual like a book club O_O

mmm i dont think thats going to work. its just asking for inactivity. we'll probably do it like have a livestream and then anyone who misses it can watch it on their own and discuss. because, everyone knows its more fun to shout things out while watching.

I offer the live streaming for those that might not have a way of watching online or downloading. ^^

It's possible to watch things together in different time zones. I do it all the time with my tumblr buddies. Some are from the West of the US and there are some Europe.

That sounds good, I think we should discuss meeting times after each session so we can get as much people talking about it as possible ^^

I wonder if we shoudl include the english dub in this o_o i mean i havent seen most of it, but it might be better with more people to poke at the little funny parts X3

@ Yami, I would love to knwo more about how you guys do it!

@ Underground. Im all for watching English dub of sailor moon especially the dic dub!

How I liveblog/livestream with my tumblr friends. We mostly watch superhero related things. Either batman or teen titans. Sometimes we watch other things as well. On Sunday nights we start liveblogging a teen titan episode. We all find our own way of watching it and post our reactions to our tumblrs. It usually takes an hour because we slowly watch it so we can express our opinions. We usually start at 8 pm Pacific time because the person who started this lives in California. I live in Eastern time so it's 11 pm for me. As for livestreaming it's more of a whenever. The person I mention has a livestream account and she'll just make a post saying she'll be livestreaming a TT episode/movie who ever wants to watch feel free to join.

BTW Livestreaming is nice because there is a chatbox and you don't have to be member to use it. You just type in a name you want to call yourself and you can chat!

Hm, I'd like it to still be tied to galaxy cauldron, though i'd have to check with the admins to make sure its okay with them. i really want to help people get motivated into other versions of the series and prove that pgsm isnt just silly and the musicals are just for people who are too easily entertained X3. I also need motivation myself to reread the manga!

Well, I would still encourage discussion in threads after watching the episode. However, livestreaming would offer a way for members to be able to watch it without downloading worries. For those that make it to the livestream, we get the bonus of being able to chat with each other in a more chat room style than forum style.

I would say livestreaming to not be the MAIN focus of discussion/rewatch/club/thing and to have it as a side/bonus for members to get to interact with each other while watching the thing they love the most. ^_^

yeah yeah but id like to update members of the club with what episode or whatever up for the week, when they can watch it live etcetera, :3 im hoping to get as many people possible to join, but i want to see how many people are showing an interest.

I am so in if this goes through ^^

i'm in too!!

Thats six people in so far, I was thinking rather than watching in order we take out specific groups of episodes, unless its an entire movie or musical. and have themes

e.g.

MINAKO'S DESTINY:

Episode # 42 - "Sailor Venus' Past! Minako's Blighted Love"
Episode # 100 - "Wanting to Retire from the Sailor Senshi!? Minako's Distress"
Episode # 192 - "Straight To Your Dreams! Is This The Birth of the Idol Minako!?"

or something similar to that format.

Anyone else interested?!

Oh, that's a great idea! I have one we should watch the special episodes that treally show Usagi's growth as a solider and how it changed her maturity level.

Yeah definitely! That osunds great

I think we should set that aside for a special day though... like Usagi's birthday?

Yes! Then we need to do something for Chibiusa because that's her birthday as well!

we can give her a highfive or something.

X3 just kidding, in all seriousness there's probably going to be too many usagi episodes to fit them both in... Unless we pick episodes that feature both of them and shift Usagi's greatest moment to the debut of the first chapter or something?

*runs headlong into the thread*

OOPS I BUMPED IT O_O

Do you think we've gotten enough interest? Because we could start planning when we will watch episodes and such.

I think we have, but I'm just trying to give the opportunity to more people. For those who have expressed interest. I'll PM you guys with details okay :3.

Would you like to help me plan Small Lady?

Sure thing. XD Just send me a PM whenever you are ready to.

Sent! Everyone comment if you're interested and if you think its the worst idea ever, comment anyway. I want to hear your opinions!
