Toy Story fan commentary - 10.20.2008

I’m fine with 20 th and the 28th ! Count me in. =)

Wait, so, are we doing the practice commentary on the 20th, and the Toy Story commentary on the 28th? Or are those just the suggested dates so far? Either way, I think I’m free on those days…my grandmother will be here one of those days, but it shouldn’t effect me being there.

Just figured out the 20th will depend on the time, 'cause it’s not on a weekend so i have school and so on…

Yeah, I think a weekend would be a good idea.

We do fan commentaries here? I want in on this! I love Toy Story! ^^

Pixar.rocks - Can you tell us when you leave for school and when you get back from school? I’m afraid that you may not be free at the same time Rachel is free on weekdays.

Netbug009 - I’m not sure if there’s going to be room in the Toy Story commentary, but we may be able to squeeze you in. Keep in mind that you have to do a practice commentary before you can do a feature commentary. Would you like to listen to our previous practice commentaries? There’s one here and another one here.

Guys, I already said I wouldn’t be able to make it on the last weekend of October… but any time during the weekdays of October will be ok for me, except for probably the 26th and 27th, and any other weekend will be fine for me except the last weekend of October. I’m having people stay at my house, and I’ll still be able to use the computer for a little bit at a time, but I’d be too embarrassed to do a commentary in front of the visitors, not to mention the noise they’d probably make… Here’s a link to everyone’s free times during the month.

About Netbug joining in on the commentary… well, if you guys think it’s ok to squeeze in one more member, then my opinion is irrelevant, but no more members after her, ok? Heheh. (Not saying I don’t want her to be a part of it, I actually really do.)

(Peter you’re just a big softie, aren’t you? ;-p)

It’s just that if we’re going to do a commentary in October, it looks like at least one person is going to miss it due to scheduling reasons. So we can probably swap someone in. Plus, saying no is a skill, and I haven’t learned how to do it at all. 8D

Peter- I know exactly how you feel. xD I’m like Wilt from Foster’s. Just can’t figure out how to say ‘no’!

Netbug009- Like Peter said, you have to participate in at least one practice commentary beforehand. (We’re currently planning on doing one more before the Toy Story commentary) You’ll also have to download Skype, if you don’t have it already, and tell us which dates you’re avialable on. It’ll be awesome if you can make it, though!

Well, I’ll keep checking back on this thread, in case of any scheduling changes. I really don’t know what’s going on right now, if I’m going to be honest, but I’ll try to show up to both commentaries, either way. xD;

Sorry to say this, but I don’t think I’ll turn up for the 20th as it’s my last teaching week of school and all of my projects in my course are due on that week (I have a 30-second animated short film, a TV commercial, and a critical essay to submit), so I’d rather spend time working on those and give other people like Wboon and Netbug a chance to do a practice.
But the 28th (provided I have no tests on that day, as exams are held the week after the final teaching week, and I take French) should be fine for me. It would be great if you guys could do the Toy Story commentary on that date. Gosh, it’s been ages since I’ve watched it! First time when it was out in cinemas, and snippets of it on Free-To-Air in Singapore last year, so I may have trouble remembering some scenes. I’ll try to rent a copy closer to the date.
Oh, and thanks for posting my thread on everyone’s schedule, rachelcakes. I’ll let you guys know whether I can make the 28th ASAP once I get my exam schedule.

thedriveintheatre - You may yet be able to participate in both the practice and the Toy Story commentary, since we haven’t finalized the dates yet.

I can’t do the 28th cause it’s my Birthday but I should be able to make the 20th. I gotta make a practice first though :wink:

EDIT
I can make the 28th if it’s in the morning.

M-O - We were going to cap the number of participants in the Toy Story commentary, but you may as well get ready for it anyway. Chances are that some won’t be able to make it (due to a scheduling conflict or unforeseen circumstances). If more than seven people show up we’ll have decide at that time who gets to commentate.

I wish A113 hadn’t proposed the 28th October in the title of this thread… especially as I’d specifically stated that I wouldn’t be able to record on that date. The 20th I don’t see any problem with that.

Well, since M-O and rachelcakes are having problems with the 28th, I wouldn’t mind changing the date. I’m fine pushing it earlier (as long as it isn’t before Friday the 24th, when assignments are due) or later (as long as I don’t have any French tests on that date).
We’ll await A113’s reply to this. :wink:

A113 isn’t in this commentary (I don’t think)…

My vacations start the 25th of October and i will probably be going on a trip from the 27th/28th to the 2nd/3rd but between these dates i will be available as for before my vacations i have school and it will be more interesting for me to do the commentary on a weekend but i’ll tell you when i finish each day.(little information, don’t forget that i’m in France…)

Monday - I finish at 3:30 PM.
Tuesday - 4:45 PM.
Wednesday - 12 AM.
Thursday - 4:45 PM.
Friday - Normally 3:30PM.

I can’t do a commentary before school because youwill be all sleeping in the US and i don’t think i could get up before that. :stuck_out_tongue:

Looks like the 20th.

As for my participation, get this: The two computer dudes are the only two reliable dudes in town; therefore, they forgot! :question: :exclamation: :question: :exclamation: Anyway, i probably won’t get my computer back for a very long time; hopefully by the time Mitch gets hers back, but i don’t think i’ll be able to make this one, either. I’m really, really, really sorry if i disappointed any of you. I was planning so much, i would’ve made it extremely fun, but i can’t this time. Again, sorry. :cry:

But i’m still helping out for you. Anything i can do, i’ll try. So, it looks like the 20th of October, ah? Sounds good (no pun intended).

The 20th looks like a good date for me, but I am going to have to double check just to be sure.

qxgnxamy Ok, i’ll be willing to not praticipate if we have too many members, but right now the 20th is good.

If it’s the 20th and another ‘test drive’, you guys can go ahead without me. I’d like to give other people a chance.
Really hope I could make the Toy Story one. I want to be a part of the PP’s inaugural feature-length commentary!
:astonished:
