I've gotten a few questions on how to proceed. There are a few ways to join the discussion here at Film of the Month Club:
(1) In any of the comments threads (presenter's or otherwise) at Film of the Month Club;
(2) Putting up a post of their own at Film of the Month Club;
(3) Putting up a post at their blog/site and cross-posting it at Film of the Month Club;
(4) Putting up a post at their blog/site and placing a link to it in the comments at Film of the Month Club. (Your blog post should be on-topic, lest we treat it as spam.)
Numbers 2 and 3 are restricted to blog members, while anyone can comment. Posting on the film can take place at any time throughout the month, until a new film is announced. (There is no reason to limit comments to the month's film.)
Happy posting/commenting!

About the Club
Film of the Month Club is an internet forum for watching and discussing movies. Each month a member will select a film, after which other members can watch and post their reflections and reactions. Selections will be driven by member interests and can range from the commercial to the experimental, from the signifcant to the forgotten. The idea behind this grab bag approach is to facilitate a conversation among all corners of the film blogosphere. And to watch more movies.

It's great to see such a healthy response (32 members so far) to Chris' Film of the Month Club idea.
One suggestion. For the convenience of this large group, I'd like to propose that when a presenter puts up a post announcing the film he or she has chosen, they should also announce the date when they'll be kicking off the discussion of that film. This would be helpful for all of us in planning our viewing, posting, discussing, etc.
Just a thought:
since it's a collective blog, it would be helpful for the readers that the author of each post would stand out a little bit more on the layout (the name is hard to find so small)
The "latest comments" an "latest posts" listing on the sidebar is a handy Page Element on Bloggers too (using the respective RSS feeds) to see what's new in the discussions (even on old posts)
