Replying to Am Movie-Potential Eduaction Development (AMPED)
(i wrote thsi thing out very well before, but i fucking hit back and deleted teh whoel thread)
given the controversy over keegan's article not being able to be submitted to the front page due to the fact NS modds don't know the content of the film, it got me thinking.
I'll post the longer, reasons behind my logic, version later, but for now...
I think it would be cool, and a good promotional tool for the am movies, if they were to submit their entire movie to the NS.com crew. Then the crew would pick a random standard arbitrary point to start from in every movie (say 1/3 of the way though) and post a 2 minuteclip following this arbitrary point (using the smae point of refrence in each would prevent comparing the climac of a film to the boring middle of another). This would provide a good feel for the film, and would eliminate dependence on trailers, which can misrepresent a movie (ahem robots). yes, it would put alot of trust in NS.com, but if you can't trust the mods who can you trust?
i think it's a good initial idea, but it coudl use a little shaping
