Hey all, thought I'd screen the classic movie Harold and Kumar Go to White Castle! Bring your popcorn and your friends.... Thought it would be a good idea to watch these irreverent cult classic movies 😎 I figure we should turn this into a double feature where I show the first And second Harold and Kumar films. Come stoned and enjoy 😅

A small-time drug trafficker likes to spend his spare time watching an emergency-medical show on TV. An emergency-medical technician likes to spend hers watching a crime show. The two have never met, but eventually it becomes apparent that there’s a paranormal connection between them. Figuring out this connection and then determining what to do about it takes most of the movie. The action only gets stranger and more ominous as the story approaches a conclusion that may have you questioning reality. ■ Title — *The Frame* ■ Director — Jamin Winans ■ Cast — David Carranza, Tiffany Mualem, Cal Bartlett ■ Unrated, suitable for teens and adults ■ ©2014 \| 2h 7m \| Crime\, Drama\, Fantasy\, Romance\, Thriller ■ Distributed by Double Edge Films

We're seeing In the Grey at 3:00pm at Regal Gallery Place. I'm really looking forward to seeing Cavill and Gyllenhaal play off each other in the new Guy Ritchie. I have high hopes for something as top as The Man from U.N.C.L.E. because, as much as I love Armie Hammer, Gyllenhaal is a step up. Not so sure about Eiza Gonzalez but she was also in Ungentlemanly Behavior with Cavill. Ritchie does have his favorites. Your host will be in seat E5, let's plan on getting dinner afterwards.

This is a level 1-4 scenario connected to the Season 7 Pathfinder Society meta-plot involving hostilities between Cheliax and Andoran. Scenario is not marked as repeatable by Paizo, however, replayers are welcome to join in for another go. Hope to see you join us as we get a Pathfinder scene going at Game Kastle! Tensions are high following the Battle of Hellknight Hill, and while Cheliax hasn't taken any direct action, they've encouraged privateers to attack Andoran shipping. One of these pirates is especially overconfident, and believes she can win more favor with a more direct attack–one on the Augustana shipyards. Coincidentally, the Pathfinder Society is in the market for a new ship, and the heads of Supplies and Procurement are touring some that are available when the attack begins. As the escorts to Nairaba and Kitsch, the two aforementioned heads of their divisions, it's up to you to keep your charges safe while dealing with the chaos.

By popular demand, the group wanted to read and discuss the semi-autobiographical novel by Henri-Pierre Roche, that inspired the Truffaut movie we watched last year. The book is available through the Columbus Library's interlibrary loan system. They reported there are twenty-eight copies available in the state of Ohio. If you have a library card, you can file an interlibrary loan request here: https://www.columbuslibrary.org/library-services/ . There are also used copies available on Amazon and eBay for under twenty dollars. You may want to rewatch the movie after reading the book, so we can compare and contrast in our discussion. The Columbus Library has four copies on DVD, and it's streaming on HBOMax.
