B-Movies

I just re-watched the first one recently and forgot how entertaining it was to watch. I'm excited to see the sequel with all of the main characters back. There's very few seats for the Devil Wears Prada 2 for this week so I am picking next weekend to give everyone time to buy tickets before they are sold out (see the link below). I will be in seat B8. https://www.amctheatres.com/showtimes/142529921/seats https://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/the_devil_wears_prada_2

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.

Join us as we get together to get together to help those in need at this CMG Gives Back event!

With few exceptions, no shows or cancelations within 1 week of the event will not be eligible for future CMG Gives Back events.

Should be another good/fun/meaningful time together, Dan

IMPORTANT INFO: I strongly suggest not reading anything about it online before seeing it. It's best viewed with no previous knowledge. This documentary contains crude terminology and deals with cyberbullying, which may be a trigger for some folks. AGAIN, PLEASE DO NOT EVEN READ ABOUT IT BEFORE YOU SEE IT. A very unusual choice for his group...

It also explores the increasingly great impact of the harassment on the community, the eventual reveal of the culprit, and the trial that followed. Please be ready to discuss the movie by 7PM. We suggest arriving early enough to order and get food beforehand. Thanks. Unfortunately, it is only available on Netflix.

Private Group. Closed to the Public Knowing ourselves and understanding our abilities is the first step toward wielding our gifts with control and accuracy. In subsequent classes we will verify and hone our talents with activities and discussion. These are hands-on workshops and participation is expected. The goal of our series will be to develop expertise in areas of particular interest such as mediumship, channeling, divination, healing and, etc.. Our ultimate directions will be determined by class members as we evolve. I look forward to sharing and discovering with you. - Cynthia

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.
