What we’re about
Going to the movies used to be a thing I did by myself. But lately I've rediscovered how much fun it is to go with friends and to talk about it with them afterwards. So, here we are!
Providence Movie Club is a group where we'll go to a movie and then grab a drink after it's over to hang out and chat. I'm pretty omnivorous with my movie taste, so one week we could see something at the Avon, and the next be front and center at Morbius. Post-movie will change as well and hit bars, coffee shops, breweries, boba tea places, etc.
Don't worry about being a film expert or anything. I imagine conversations will go like most book clubs where you talk about the book for seven minutes and then everyone drops it.
See you at the movies!

Movie Club Mixer at The Rhodium Room
Rhode Island Spirits, 59 Blackstone Ave, Pawtucket, RI, USPeople often say to me, "Sean, I love the mixers but why are they always on a weeknight?" Oftentimes it's because places are busy on the weekends, and they're more willing to accommodate us on a slower night. BUT now I've finally got us a Friday night mixer (spoiler: December's will be on a Saturday.) We're going to Pawtucket to The Rhodium Room distillery bar at Rhode Island Spirits!
The mixers are a great and fun way to familiarize yourself more with Movie Club and its members. As a reminder, there's no movie portion, only the hanging out part. Old members, new members, and anyone who has wanted to check out the group is welcome! It's just a space for people to socialize, no pressure.
The event will start at The Rhodium Room at 7:00pm on Friday, November 7th. It'll end at 10:00pm. Though it'll be a Friday, so maybe we'll go someplace afterwards, too. I'll have a pile of name tags on a table for everyone to help differentiate who's there for the mixer and who's just there. The Rhodium Room has alcoholic and non-alcoholic options available, as well as some assorted snacks.
Hope to see you there!

Movie Song Karaoke at The Dusty Planet
The Dusty Planet, 39 Troy Street, Providence, RI, USAll of us had so much fun at the last Movie Song Karaoke event in August that I thought it'd be a good idea to make it a recurring event. So we're heading back to The Dusty Planet for another edition of Movie Song Karaoke!
The event will start at The Dusty Planet at 7:00pm on Friday, November 21st. The event ends at 11:00pm. All of this is pretty casual. If you want to sing a song, there's an app where you can put your song in and also see the queue. This is an event open to the public, but if you're coming for Movie Club, try to stay on theme and sing a song from a movie. Basically if it's used in a movie, it's fair game.
The Dusty Planet will also have a Secret Song. If the Secret Song is sung, the singer gets two free rounds of golf. There will be trivia about the Secret Song throughout the night to help with solving it. And I'll probably also do a Movie Club Secret Song with attached prize. Sooo two ways to win that night!
The bar sells concessions such as candy, chips, snacks, and soft drinks, alongside a rotating menu of beer, wine and canned cocktails. It's also nice because if you're not really into karaoke, they have a few arcade cabinets/pinball machines and a 9-hole miniature golf course to indulge in.
Hope to see you there!
