🎬 Let’s Go to the Movies (and Actually Talk… or Not) Whether you're a film nerd, popcorn enthusiast, or just looking for a chill night out with interesting people — this one's for you. We’re heading out to see a movie together, then grabbing food or drinks after. If the film's great (or terrible), we’ll probably talk about it forever. If it’s just okay, we’ll talk about it for 10 minutes and move on to everything else — books, dating apps, weird dreams, how Toronto keeps getting more expensive, etc. The vibe is relaxed, friendly, and not too serious. No film degree needed. No icebreakers. No pressure to “perform.” Just come enjoy the film, connect with some thoughtful people, and see where the night goes 🎞️ **Movie Title + Trailer:** [[Click here to watch the trailer!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ma1x7ikpid8)] 📖 **📖 Plot Summary:** Takes audiences back to Pandora in an immersive new adventure with Marine turned Na'vi leader Jake Sully (Worthington), Na'vi warrior Neytiri (Saldaña) and the Sully family. *** ### 🗓️ **Event Details** 📍 **Meetup Time:** 6:15 PM - I will only wait 5minw 🎬 **Movie Start Time:** 6:30pm ⏱️ **Runtime:** 3hrs15mins 📌 **Meetup Spot:** I will be at the top of the escalator wearing my Moose Hat. 🎟️ **Cost:** * **$19.23** regular admission 👉 You are responsible for buying your own ticket. **🪑 Reserved Seating:** You must buy your ticket *before* signing up.

Here’s what to expect 👇 * We will start at **5:30 PM** with board games and order food/dinner as we play. The restaurant has confirmed they are happy to host us. * This is the first time we are trying this format, so lets see how it goes. * You can check out their menu here 👇 https://elmariachitacos.ca/menu * Everyone pays for their own meal. I had called them, they will be ok to have separate webills. * If you have specific allergies or dietary needs, please call the restaurant directly to confirm they can accommodate you. * If your plans change, please cancel at least a day before so we can adjust seating. * Limited to **6 seats** only this time, since this is the first time we are doing board games. This is a relaxed, social evening—come by, meet new people, and enjoy some tacos and games together.

Let’s do some coding together at a cafe! No more working alone in the weekend. Here, we write code together. And I mean together together. Not occupying-the-same-space-but-separate together. Here’s how it works: Jennifer brings her mobile app project, tells everyone that it is like Pinterest for recipes and she’d like to work on the nav bar. Paul and Chloe think Jennifer's project is fascinating, and they join the group. They gather around Jennifer’s laptop and work on the nav bar for 2 hours. Jennifer is the one typing out the code while Paul and Chloe research, brainstorm, and offer suggestions. If you’re feeling stuck on your own project or need a motivation boost, bring it to mob programming! Want to learn by watching how others code and solve problems? Join someone else’s project at this event! Oh and we love your half-done projects that you are a bit embarrassed to share. Absolutely bring those to the event! **Discord**: We use Discord to share screen & code snippets during the event. Also feel free to share your projects here before the event! https://discord.gg/Da9fZFxPfs **Event policy**: * We have 0 tolerance for harassment. * We don’t allow the projects that are not meant to be shared in public such as school assignments, interview tasks, or trade secrets. * The goal is to write code. We discourage you from pitching business ideas here, doing code reviews, or spending the whole event on planning what to do. * Please buy a drink, and tip the barista well.
