For those of you who attend the club or hope to attend the club in the future, take a few minutes to learn about the titles you don't recognize. Often we hold a vote on a movie that few people have heard of, and the natural reaction is to vote what you know. I would personally like to venture out of the comfort zone and screen movies that are new and unfamiliar. This club gives us an opportunity to learn about unique movies from other people with similar interests. So remember, when The Corndog Man gets pulled for a vote, give it a chance!

As the first, and I believe only winner of an official Movie Geeks Club t-shirt*, I believe that I'm qualified to second your motion that we continue to seek out the new and unfamiliar in our selections. Spinal Tap was great fun and there should always be a place for favorite films such as that, but we wouldn't be true to our geekiness if we didn't continue to explore lesser known fare.

*A major award. I wear it often.
