We are trying something new- welcome to the Monthly Monday Movie Forum Chat, a little corner of the community where we put talk of blood cancer aside for a moment and focus on films.
Once a month on a Monday (usually the first Monday of the month), pop in and tell us what you’ve been watching. It doesn’t matter if it’s a brand new release, an old favourite you’ve revisited, or something you stumbled across at 11pm and couldn’t turn off. All films welcome, and no taste-shaming here!
Here’s how it works:
Reply to this thread using the template below. That’s it. No essays required (though we won’t stop you), and you can discuss to your heart’s content!
Film title:
Rating: /10
One or two sentences on it:
Trailer: (paste a YouTube link if you can find one!)
A couple of guidelines (we promise, just two):

-
Flag heavy content if it comes up - our community carries a lot, so if you’re recommending something with themes around illness, death, or grief, just give it a quick mention so people can choose whether to dive in. Not off-limits, just a heads up.
- Did you know you can use the website ‘Does the Dog Die’ to search crowdsourced trigger warnings for movies, TV and more? Handy!
Other than that: all genres, all eras, all languages. Your comfort rewatch is just as valid as the arthouse pick
