I'll give the Romance, Music & Musical Challenge a little room to breathe and post the Oscar Challenge threads by the end of next week.

I hope so. It'd be hasty but I'm willing to throw together discussion and list threads.

No worries! Time doesn't mean anything anymore anyway.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium

I have a question and a suggestion. The question is, do we have a host for May? Since there's no universal theme I don't think a discussion thread is really necessary until just before it starts. It'd just be nice to know who's gonna start the threads.

My suggestion is that next year, the Romance/Music/Musicals challenge be renamed the Romusical Challenge. It's much shorter, and I dig portmanteaus (portmanteaux?).

I'll do it if no one else wants to. I thought I had gone back to hosting it again last year, but that was the second year I didn't host (I thought I didn't do '19 & '20, but it was '20 & '21).

I'll start the discussion thread late in April.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium

Do we have a volunteer for June's Historical Appreciation Challenge? I gotta be honest, I don't really want to do it this year. I may not even participate. Want to make sure we have someone set up, though, and that they have a little time during May for a discussion thread to kick around any tweaks the group wants to make.

I also agree that we need to find a host. I have a terribly sick and possibly dying puppy right now. So I already want to bow out of hosting duties. As with Travis, I don't even know for sure right now if I will participate.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium

Just wanted to post here that I do still plan on hosting July and August's challenges this year. Time got a bit away from me! I plan on getting the Sci-fi/Fantasy challenge threads up within the next day or two.

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium

Reminder that anyone who watches the new episodes of Stranger Things this weekend can count them for both historical and sci-fi!

Does any title count for more challenges than Outlander?

-TV
-Romance
-Time Travel
-Action
-B-movie/sexploitation j/k lol
-MYOC
-Historical
-Sci-fi/fantasy
-Holiday (one themed episode in season 3)

Re: "Official" DVDTalk Challenges Compendium

FYI, I'm planning to get the Indie/Art House discussion thread around the 15th. I didn't get the sense from last year's feedback that we'll need a whole month to brainstorm any tweaks we might want to make.

Was just thinking about the Art House Challenge. Made a banner and everything.
