Re: May 2011 Make-Your-Own Challenge ***Lists Go Here***
"Movie Serials" Challenge.
*=First time viewing
Rules:
Must be a "serial" - i.e. multi-chapter "cliffhanger" type film, TV show/segment or film based on/inspired by serials. "Episodic" cliffhanger type TV series are allowed with the stipulation that every episode/chapter *must* end with a cliffhanger and each episode/chapter must begin with a recap of the previous episodes.
Examples of acceptable TV/films:
"Rocky & Bullwinkle" story segments only, supporting cartoons from a R&B episode are *not* accepted
"Star Wars" and "Indiana Jones" film series, "Sky Captain and the World of Tomorrow", and "The Phantom".
Each serial/series/film counts as 1 (one) selection no matter how long or short. Example: a 4 season TV series counts as one. A 4 episode R&B story counts as one. The 6 "Star Wars" films count as a single selection. All 6 must be watched for the series to count.
Number your list and indicate the number of chapters/episodes for each serial. Count the serial on the day you watch the last chapter/episode no matter what day on which you started.
