How about something like #weeklydj

I was thinking of something really simple, for example this would be a post:

Weekly Film Club: This weeks film: Citizen Kane -Discuss...

#hubskifilmclub

and then in the post, shout-out to all of those interested in being a part of it and maybe have some conversation starting questions. Some weeks may be really quiet but others may get more participation depending on the film. The nice part about it is that there is no selecting of what film is next. Honestly, this takes a ton of time usually. Couldn't hurt to try it and also try the #weeklydj style.

I'd be up for this!

Oh sure. The biggest advantage I see in choosing from the AFI top 100 is that we'd have a lot of people who can contribute. I'm sure many of us have seen many of the films on the list, and have clearly formed opinions on them, making discussions that much more in-depth.

Perhaps we could use the #weeklyDJ style of hosting a movie every week, but have to select the movie from the AFI Top 100 list. It doesn't have to be in any particular order, either. Without order, it would give the host the freedom to choose from the AFI list.
