I have yet to see the unedited version the reboot in 2013 so I was only able to see a girl get restrained by plants but not stripped while some rather horrible looking root finds it's way up between her legs and suggests it enters her that way. The reboot just has a nasty violation that looks like it would kill a girl. However, I unfortunately need to watch it again to make a better comment about the scene in the reboot.

| − | # Send a Slack DM (direct message) to '''@lloyd.black''' with the message '''"TDN-Movie Suggestion: (movie title)"'''

| |
| − | :Please send suggestions to him and discuss suggestions with him.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | '''Some restrictions when it comes to suggestions:'''
| |
| − | * The MPAA movie rating would be beneficial when suggesting a movie so it may be properly listed. However, it's accepted that some movies, such as "direct to video" types, may be "Unrated".
| |
| − | * Historical or "Based on true events" movies are likely to be rejected as this event is for fictional movies only.
| |
| − | * TV shows will NOT be accepted into the suggested movie list. This event is for movies only. However, Dustin and Lloyd may override this for special situations.
| |
| − | * Very short 'made for TV' series (TV movies) are allowed, like 2-6 episode for the entire series, like many 'Stephen King' TV movies. "Rose Red" is a good example as it's split into two segments.
| |
| − | * Additionally, segmented movies will include an intermission between segments for the comfort of attendees to the event.
| |
| − | * Romantic and romantic comedies are extremely unlikely to be accepted as they are outside of the original scope of the purpose of the event.
| |
| − | * Overly positive and 'feel good' movies are also extremely unlikely to be accepted.
| |
| − |

| − | ==Movie Selection and Presentation Process==
| |
| − | If people are curious about how movies are selected, here is the process.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | {| class="wikitable" style="text-align: left; width: 900px; background: #FFFFFF;"
| |
| − | |-
| |
| − | | style="text-align: center; background: #565656; color: #ffffff;" colspan="2" | '''Selection and Presentation Process:'''
| |
| − | |-
| |
| − | | style="background: #DFDFDF; | Suggestion ||
| |
| − | : The selection process starts with a suggestion from someone or an idea that a certain movie may be fun to watch for everyone.
| |
| − | : The movies shown are never voted upon.
| |
| − | : Lack of voting is done for different reasons which are not presented but also because movies might be voted down due by people who have not seen the movie and are judging based on lack of information.
| |
| − | : If someone is rather passionate about a movie being show, it can be brought up to Lloyd for special consideration. However, there is still no promise it will be selected.
| |
| − | |-
| |
| − | | style="background: #DFDFDF; | Selection ||
| |
| − | : The selection is done when a proper pre-purchase preview can be done. Usually, this is done using Netflix rental, streaming or Amazon's movie streaming service.
| |
| − | : If it can't be rented, it may be purchased ahead of time if it's considered a positive chance of it being worthy of being added to the movie library.
| |
| − | : Additionally, research is done to verify the story and quality of the movie.
| |
| − | |-
| |
| − | | style="background: #DFDFDF; | Acquisition ||
| |
| − | : It it then checked to see if Lloyd owns the movie.
| |
| − | : If Lloyd does not own the movie, he purchases it usually through Amazon.com choosing the DVD format by default.
| |
| − | : This purchase is usually for a movie that's not being shown at the next event. Usually, it's for the event following the next event or later.
| |
| − | : Lloyd never selects movies that are only being rented. He only selects movies that he actually owns the original disc for.
| |
| − | |-
| |
| − | | style="background: #DFDFDF; | Preview ||
| |
| − | : Lloyd then watches the movie completely. Sometimes he watches it more than once. Previewing is done to note if there's anything questionable or offensive.
| |
| − | : An offensive movie doesn't mean it's not presented, it's just something to bring up during a pre-movie discussion to let attendees know about possible offensive content.
| |
| − | |-
| |
| − | | style="background: #DFDFDF; | Wallpaper ||
| |
| − | : Lloyd then searches for a movie poster for the movie selected. It is then combined with a suitable wallpaper image that is for showing before the movie is presented.
| |
| − | : The wallpaper is made to be the size of 1920x1080 in size, as that's the display resolution of the projector as a monitor and his own HDTV at home being used for this purpose.
| |
| − | : The wallpaper is then set as the wallpaper for the specific desktop background of the laptop for the specific output going to the projector.
| |
| − | |-
| |
| − | | style="background: #DFDFDF; | Preparation for Presentation ||
| |
| − | : Lloyd then makes a backup of the movie so that the movie may be played from his HDD used exclusively for this purpose.
| |
| − | : The movie is test played coming from the HDD before it's considered safe to be played using that method.
| |
| − | : However, the original movie disc to be shown is always brought with him and kept in his laptop bag in the event that the movie backup doesn't work properly.
| |
| − | : The decision of which media player is to be used is done. Usually, it's either PowerDVD 16 or VLC Media Player. VLC has become the player of choice recently.
| |
| − | |-
| |
| − | | style="background: #DFDFDF; | Presentation ||
| |
| − | : Lloyd Black sets up the necessary hardware for this event at 7:30 PM - 8:00 PM. This consists of his personal laptop, Bluetooth speakers and HDMI cable.
| |
| − | : The actual event starts at 9:00 PM. Attendees are asked to arrive before this time but the event may be delayed if additional attendees are expected to show.
| |
| − | : Playing the movie is done during the event at 9:30 PM. Again, this may be delayed if other people are expected and have notified Lloyd of this.
