Well, it’s been a summer, hasn’t it?
An old friend of mine, Cecilie, will be in town on Friday 20 August
and so I will do my last movie night on that evening. All the usual
stuff applies. Ask me questions if you have any.
This will be the last night of this summer, and for future seasons I
will limit my movie nights to special occasions.
20 August. That’s a Friday which is a little unusual. Hope that’s ok
with y’all.
Likely the last scheduled movie night for me.
Let me know your thoughts.
I’ve done these for three years now (four if you include the first
night), but lately the turn-out has been less than optimal. It’s a lot
of work to put these on and so I’ve decided to reduce or eliminate
these nights all together. In short, if you’ve been thinking you’d
like to come this is likely your best and final opportunity.
Hello, kiddies.
First of all, folks are asking about the movies. I guess “It’s a
secret” doesn’t go over well enough. How about “It’s a secret but here
are some hints”?
Two comedies (funny as hell).
There are British people involved…
…and perhaps, I say perhaps, some either dead or undead types.
Also, there is a high probability for glimpses of hot chicks.
And maybe a midget.
No ninjas (though you are permitted to wear your ninja outfits).
You like that?
Ratings may be important to some.
Both films are rated R for one reason or another, but I will remind
you that my parents took both my little brother and I to see Porky’s
at ages 12 and 9 when that film came out and we have turned out just
fine. Well, mostly. Look, piss off.
Any other questions and you just send them my way.
I’m getting asked about what to bring, so I’ll go over the usual bits
especially for the new-comers. You can see the definitive list here:

You will want to sit on something. Could be a blanket. Could be a
camping chair. You are in control. I have a couple of extras, but
don’t make me bring out The Comfy Chair!
The weather is likely to be chilly at night so bring a blanket or a
sweater or something to keep you warm (hookers are fine but you HAVE
to keep them leashed at all times).
I am making my famous Sangria but you may want to bring your favorite
beverage as you will likely disapprove of my collection (OE800 mixed
with Red Bull? Really?).
I will provide some random snacks, but I love it when people bring
nibbles to share.
(My Hookah is for tobacco only but if you need a pipe let me know.)
More questions? You know where to find me.
Shit, sorry. And you can show up at 7pm and the films will start once
it gets dark enough. Don’t be afraid to be the first one here because
I always need help hanging the stupidhuge screen.
Thanks for the support. It was a great night for a movie and a good
crowd.
For those that missed the shows and would like to recreate the event
in their private dream worlds, the night consisted of some early
Popeye cartoons (from the 30’s), Death at a Funeral (the original
British version), and Lesbian Vampire Killers.
