Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

Will there be a TV on DVD Challenge this year? seems like there was usually a thread by now.

edit: If no one objects, i'll make a Discussion and List thread. I'll wait till tomorrow like at 12 pm CT to see if anyone else is going to do it.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

Just now saw your edit. That works for me. I was just coming to the thread to offer myself. With everything going on in my life right now though, I'm happy to let someone else do it.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

The Oscar nomination are going to be announced on January 23. I will run the Challenge unless someone else is interested in taking up the mantle.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

I thought about watching a potential nominee last night then wondered when the noms were going to be announced. :lol:

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

It's going to be a long challenge this year since the Ceremony isn't until March 10. Plenty of time to watch a LOT of stuff.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

The Oscar Challenge discussion thread and list thread are available.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

The February Music/Romance challenge is back! I know some people don't like overlapping challenges at certain times of the year, but anyone should feel free to skip the ones they don't want to participate in. :)

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

Crap, almost forgot about the Quadrennial Leap Day Challenge. And forgot to take vacation in advance. Only work 3 days a week (12 hour shifts) and of course am working all three days of the Challenge.

Wow, the 4th Leap Day Challenge already? Time flies.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

I'm willing to babysit/herd/host this year's Action/Adventure/Crime/Mystery challenge again, this year.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

Decided to get the Action/Adventure/Crime/Mystery Challenge discussion thread up early because of the three! overlapping Challenges this year. I'll get the list thread up sometime next week, next weekend at the latest.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

Is there going to be a May challenge this year?

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

I've been wondering that myself.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

It's May 1! Are we not having the Make-Your-Own Challenge?

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

I just PM'd Dimension X, who ran it last year but hasn't posted on the forum in a month and made a list for the B-movie challenge but didn't record anything. If he doesn't respond, I can make a list thread.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

MYOC list thread is live!

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

Is there a Historical Appreciation challenge this year?

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

I was going to step up for the SF/F and Animation Challenges if they ended up orphaned this year.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

We’ll see, but LJG usually likes to do the pair of them.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

Yeah, LJG did a lot of work on the SF/F Challenge last year getting it set up for this year so I would be surprised if they didn't do it but it sure is nice to have someone willing to do it if that doesn't work out. Thanks for being here if we need you coyoteblue!

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

In the past, I’ve run it when it was orphaned, but someone else would have to this year. I’m in grad school now and between school and work, there is no way I would have time to run it. It is a challenge that I’ve always enjoyed however, so if someone else wants to step up, I would take part in watching.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

I've been bad at participating in challenges lately but I created the historical challenge threads. They'll need some cleanup later.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

Thanks for the offer! I still plan on doing both July and August's challenges this year. I'll get the Sci-fi/Fantasy one started in the next couple days. If something comes up, I'll definitely reach out!

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

The July Sci-Fi/Fantasy Challenge discussion thread is posted here.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

August's 2024, 15th Annual Animation Challenge Discussion Thread is up here.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

Animation Challenge list thread is now listed. I have officially expanded the challenge to cover the weekend, so it now ends on Sept. 3rd at dawn. This will be a change for this year only.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

ICYMI, I started a discussion thread for next month's challenge. The first order of business is deciding whether to revert back to a Criterion-specific challenge. If you're a potentially interested participant, I invite you to chime in over there.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

Comedy threads are up, thanks David!

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

Are we doing the TV challenge in January?

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

I was wondering the same thing myself. If no one else steps up I could throw up a quick thread tomorrow afternoon.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

As promised, Discussion and list threads are up.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

And right when folks are getting comfy with the TV Challenge, the Oscar Challenge will come around on the 17th. Unless someone else is interested, I'll put up the threads sometime next week.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

Due to the wildfires, the Oscar voting deadline has been extended and now the nominations will be announced on the 19th. I'll post the discussion thread on Monday to give the TV Challenge a bit more time to itself.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

February romance/music challenge has been posted

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

Damn, y'all. We'll have Academy Awards overlapping with the end of TV on DVD* and much of Romusical, which is typical. But I'm also doing the Criterion and History of Horror challenges on Letterboxd this year. I feel like I'm getting into Trevor -level ambition!

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

Since the month was nearly over, I went ahead and posted the List Thread and Discussion thread for the A/A/C/M challenge as no one had mentioned anything.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium
 

I've been MIA since the 2014 Holiday Challenge, But I plan on making a comeback in the May Make Your Own Challenge this year. Is it going to happen?
