No, I know Andrew has more than 50 reviews.  I'm talking about our site, the Brotherhood of Bad Movies, http://www.cinemasodomy.com.
We're rolling up on our 50th review (not very impressive when you consider we've been around for about four years, but considering all the other stuff we have besides reviews, it ain't bad), and we're considering a B-Fest style 24-hour pain fest, where no one can wander around or distract themselves in any way.  The winner gets...well, we don't know.  That's where you guys come in.  What would be a suitable prize for such an accomplishment.
Also, are there any other cool things you might think of for a 50th review extraordinaire besides this?
Thanks for the help,

How about some DVD's for a prize, or maybe a gift cert. to Best Buy.

I have to suggest a t-shirt (hopefully nobody is either a midget or a giant) or maybe a big poster, the latter would be a collage of photocopied (or printed) b-movie film covers.

Ideas I had come up with for the next Slimefest.  It is just an excuse to invite a whole bunch of friends over and watch 13 hours of bad movies.

Make sure to watch "The Trial of Billy Jack" - that will take up 1/8 of your allocated time.  And it is time so well spent...

Maybe an honoree place as a part-time runner of the review section of the site, so long as the reviews are good. It would increase the number of reviews for your site, and be quite a privelege to whomever won. Where are you all located so I can yay or nay the possibility of me coming? Better make sure the seats are comfortable, but have a method to patrol each person and make sure they aren't sleeping their way through the films.

Truthfully, I think all of the ideas suggested by Scott, Andrew, and John are all good.  You can't go wrong with any of them.  I think a poster would be cool, or a DVD of the 50th movie that you review.  Either that, or just a really bad movie on DVD.

Good ideas for prizes.  Scott, we're located in north central Iowa.  I don't think I made myself too clear, but the idea was that we couldn't pick a particular movie for #50, so we were just going to do a B-Fest diary style journal of all the crap we watch instead of limiting it to one film.
We'll jump on getting some stuff worked out.  Brother Fistula is moving to Wisconsin on Friday, so communications will be a bit strained for a week or two until he's settled in.  We'll be working out a tentative movie list sometime in the not too distant future.
Keep the ideas comin', as well as any suggestions for other activities or movies you'd like to see covered.

Damn.... Iowa....... damn......... sorry, but as much as I'd love to support, I have a lot more I could do with my money than take a trip to Iowa. Maybe if you were in a big city like Chicago like B-Fest is, then it would be more possible. But Iowa........... too much o nothing. Sorry.

Damn.... Im a poor college student.... with no money to travel anywhere. Why are there no B-Movie fests in the DC area???

Anyways


I think that you could easily find and cheaply purchase a prop or a scene from a B movie as your prize... Look into Carnivore, im sure they are willing to make money any way I can. I know I would fly out to Iowa ifI had the money to receive some sort of actual paraphanelia used in a movie. Hey, maybe the winner could have his/her trip to Iowa paid for :-) I like that one.

Shoot, if you get enough money, a good poster (good condition, from a classic movie-- Plan 9 perhaps?), as well as eye drops, and if the movies are bad enough, some time in a quiet, padded room. . .
