NOTICE – MCT Live: Part II

The day and time are officially set! The second ever MCT Live will be this coming Friday July 22nd at 9:00 PM EST. Once again, the film this month is Singin’ in the Rain starring Gene Kelly, Debbie Reynolds, and Donald O’Connor. Here’s how it all works in case you missed this event last month:

Step 1: I choose a movie to sit down and watch for the first time.
Step 2: I log on to Twitter as @MEIER_in_a_CT.
Step 3: You log on to Twitter and follow @MEIER_in_a_CT (if you don’t already).
Step 4: You read and, if you like, respond to my tweets as I’m watching the movie. Since live-tweeting a film demands a good chunk of an individual’s attention, don’t be too heartbroken if I don’t immediately or ever reply to your tweets (If I can’t find a chance to personally respond to you – and I will try – I may just retweet your tweet.) Also, watching the same movie at the same time is greatly encouraged! If you choose to actively take part, remember to include the hashtag phrase “#mctlive” within your message of 140 characters or less.
Step 5: You go to GlasgowtotheMovies.com the next day and find the entire live-blog (Warning: I WILL post anything that includes the aforementioned hashtag or that I’ve chosen to retweet during its formation – obscenity censored) under “Meier! in a Crowded Theater”.

The chosen film this month is a lot shorter than last month’s choice of Gone With the Wind so I expect we will be a lot less prone to Twitter going over capacity (and hopefully other potential malfunctions – knock on wood) during the viewing. We had a decent amount of participation – both actively and quietly – for the last MCT Live which I am still humbly grateful for, and I know we can gain even stronger numbers for this one! Even if not, regardless, it should be a heavy downpour of fun (That’s right, a pun! Deal with it!). Hope to see you there!

 

P.S. I’ll do my best to tone down the negativity this time around. From what I understand, with the pleasant SitR as the subject, this should be fairly easy to accomplish.
