Every hear of those fantasy sports leagues? What about a fantasy B-Movie Channel? Ok, your in charge you pick the two films that will play during prime time on your channel every night.  You have to come up with a name and maybe a theme for your channel. These are my films for tonight.

Tonight: on  ___________ (i don't have a name for my channel yet)

8:00 pm - The Green Slime
10:00 pm - The Wild Angels

The gimmick for my channel is that the films have to be 25 years+ to show on my channel, so I might come up with a name related to this concept.

The theme for my channel would be "Little Known Films with Well Known Faces" with a heavy leaning toward cheap horror and sci fi.

My first two films:

Moontrap (1989) starring Walter Koenig and Bruce Campbell
Leprechaun (1993) starring Jennifer Aniston

Professor Hathaway:  I noticed you stopped stuttering.
Bodie:      I've been giving myself shock treatments.
Professor Hathaway: Up the voltage.

I'd have to go with:

Green Slime
Godzilla Final Wars

All Kaiju, all the time.

I think the Bizarre Bazaar channel would do marvelously bad business for the week it would operate. "Only the Weirdest Are Good Enough for Us!"

We could start with:

The Forbidden Zone
Naked Lunch


We'd then immediately be sued for airing such trash and go out of business, only to be replaced by the Celebrity Trial channel, airing reruns of the OJ trial and the Michael Jackson trial (talk about bizarre!).

"They tap dance not, neither do they fart." --Greensleeves, on the Fig Men of the Imagination, in "Twice Upon a Time."

Mine would have to be a horror channel. I would call it the "Slice and Dice Channel" in honor of the Spice Channel and slasher movies.

I would open up with:

Dr. Butcher
Hills Have Eyes

The Unreality Show...

8pm- Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah
10pm- Godzilla, Mothra, King Ghidorah: All Out Giant Monsters Attack (letterboxed)
12am- Godzilla: Final Wars

I like Green Slime, but I don't think there's a channel that's gonna show that during primetime seven days a week (yeah, I know Godzilla's chances are only marginally better...)


Derf

How about a theme where the movie titles make up amusing/interesting combinations?

The Fog
On a Clear Day


or

The Wedding Planner
Divorce American Style


or

(it's cheating with three movies, I know)

The Bat
Evolution
Batman

How about the "All Remake Channel?"  On any given night, all movies have to be related, same title or no.

Those are all very fine channels.

I'm going for four movies a night to get some texture into my line-up. Tonight' s Quadruple Feature Presentation will be:

Tonight on ____________ (still don't know the name of my channel)

6:00 pm - Gamera the Invincible
8:00 pm - Mad Max
10:00 pm - Motel Hell (25 years old this year)
12:00 am -  The Devils Nightmare

BeyondTheGrave

I would go with a post apocalyptic  type  of channel. Movies like:

1990: The bronx warrior
Omega Doom
Steel Dawn
Mad Max

Do that and you'll very quickly noticed how bad the quality of film has gotten- from narrative to acting to creativity.

Hummm...

THE DISASTER ZONE!
Catagory 6 : Day of Destruction.
Catagory 7 : The end of the world.
With guest host, Randy Quade!
If the viewers can get past that, they are mine forever!
 Bw-hahahaha!

Dude, if you can get Quaid to be a regular host, I'd let you have the channel despite never having seen the films you mentioned. He has to do a segment on the National Lampoon films he's been in, though :)
