Classic Movie Ficathon?

[trinityofone]

forcryinoutloud and I are thinking of running an SGA Classic Movie Ficathon, in which participants would get to pick a film from the '30s-'60s and write an SGA story based on the movie itself, or extrapolated from the summary and taken in the crazy direction of your choice. (The ones I'm really hoping get written? The Shop Around the Corner, His Girl Friday, North by Northwest, The Searchers...well, and loads more, really.) So, what we want to know is: would you all be interested in something like that?

[Poll #704713]

Any other thoughts? Questions? Suggestions? I've never run a ficathon before, so I'd really appreciate any advice/words of caution/hysterical pointing-and-laughing...

I would definitely participate..making the guys fit into a classic movie, I've read stories in other fandoms like that and they all turn out fantastic!

Yay! And I saw your comment about The Searchers--it's totally my favorite Western, ever. And don't you think John would make the most incredible Ethan Edwards?
