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 have like nothing to contribute. Nothing!

But I totally get what you mean with the tutorial. For mine, I was stuck with 4 most boring (omg, i'd rather be dead boring) people... at least the tutor was okay.

Well, I have to remind myself that, even if the rest of my tutorials suck, at least I have the one with PETER HOTASS MACKAY!

Hot Scots with oddly (in?)appropriate names make everything better.
