Thinking about starting a softcore/erotic film challenge
Hi all,
I don't think this has been attempted before. I'm a sucker for '90s Erotic thrillers, '80s teen sex quest comedies and erotic epics from the '70s and beyond (Emanuelle and its many offspring...John Derek films). There are lots of subcategories and foreign cinema, etc.
I guess all of these genres are covered in the B fest, but I wanted to take the temperature of the community and see if there was interest in a specified challenge and what month might be appropriate. If there is room for such a thing I wouldn't mind getting it off the ground.
Thoughts?

This sounds like a NSFW challenge. Since I do a lot of my challenge updates on my office computer, this rules out my participation.

I like the idea but agree that it's probably best saved for the B movie challenge or MYO, especially since we don't really have any open months at this point. I lined up a bunch of these for the last B challenge but trying to sit through Poison Ivy 2 and Cruel Intentions 2 quickly took the wind out of my sails.

I recommend against it. From the rules http://forum.dvdtalk.com/rules.php
ABSOLUTELY NO:
....
• No threads of an explicit sexual nature.
• No nude or explicit, sexually-suggestive pictures, no links to nude pictures, no links to sites primarily having a sexual theme (excluding XCritic.com in general, however don't link to specific threads, forums, or anything else there).
....
A challenge of this type could quickly get out of hand and break the rules.
