🎥 MOVIE ROADHOUSE LONDON

👑 In a world filled with hate, the King of Pop still dared to hope, to inspire, and to make a difference 🕺🏾

👋 Hello everyone! Let’s hear it for the King of Pop in this upcoming musical biographical drama directed by Antoine Fuqua and written by John Logan.

The film will follow the life of Michael Jackson, with his nephew Jaafar Jackson taking on the lead role. Early footage has already drawn attention thanks to his striking resemblance and his natural ability to capture Michael’s iconic stage presence and dance moves.

The story is expected to offer a broad and balanced look at Jackson’s life, following his journey from the Jackson 5 to becoming one of the most famous entertainers in the world, while also touching on the more difficult and complex parts of his story.

The Plan: We will meet at the Cineworld Empire Bar & Confectionary (far end side). There will be quite a few of us, so I apologise in advance if there is limited seating. We’ll probably start with some predictions before the presentation and inside the screen you can look for us in row E.

⚡️ Featuring Bowie himself as its sole voice, David Bowie: You’re Not Alone is both a multimedia spectacle and an intimate and revealing self-portrait.

👋 Hello Everyone! Let's be transported into the many worlds of David Bowie. Through his iconic performances, rarely-seen interviews and never-before-exhibited material, discover the creative mind, spirit and soul of one of the world’s greatest, most visionary artists.

About the Show: Using iconic performance footage, rarely heard interviews, and never-before-seen material selected from thousands of hours of film in the David Bowie Archive in New York, this show traces Bowie’s journey from Space Oddity through Diamond Dogs and Heroes to his final works.

It celebrates his boundless curiosity, the way his artistry connected people across continents and generations, and the lasting cultural impact he continues to have today. Whether you’re reliving the magic or discovering it for the first time, this is your ticket to the landmark Bowie performances that changed culture forever.

What You’ll See: Lightroom’s fully projected 11-metre-high walls and vast open floor become the canvas for a truly unique presentation. Bringing together a rich mix of visual material from a wide range of sources, the show combines rare performance footage, photography, drawings, lyrics, personal notes, and sketches to create the most vivid, detailed, and immersive exploration yet of Bowie’s world.

Structured in thematic chapters within a looping presentation, You’re Not Alone offers insight into Bowie’s perspective on the subjects that mattered most to him, including theatricality, spirituality, songwriting, and the transformative power of creativity.

The Plan: I’ll be hanging out at the Lightroom Café & Bar from 5:00p.m. for a meet & greet before we head to Immersive Experience Room below. We’ll regroup for a review and drink afterwards.

See you guys there

♔ In London (1994), an unseen narrator, voiced by Paul Scofield, returns to the British capital after several years abroad to accompany his reclusive friend Robinson on a series of reflective urban explorations.

Hey Guys! Let's meet for an exciting series of three walks around diverse areas of the city, their observations mix personal insight with encounters and images drawn from real life, capturing the city’s architecture, public spaces, and cultural landmarks. The narrative bridges memory, literature, and everyday experience as it recounts events and social change in London over the course of a year.

More than a straightforward travelogue, London unfolds as a cinematic essay on the character and transformation of the city itself, using archival imagery and evocative narration to weave in political and historical context. References to literary figures and philosophical ideas subtly shape the film’s impressionistic portrait, linking the lived environment with broader cultural currents and the lived realities of early 1990s London.
Runtime: 85 mins. Certificate: 18

We'll meet at The Nickel Cinema, the heir apparent to the historical Scala, which is the home to the most subversive, bewildering, sensational, fearless, sublime, shocking, transgressive, death-defying, psychedelic, psychotronic, bizarre, rebellious and baffling cinematic treasures - from the silent era to the digital age.

Check out the details below—I'll see you all there!
