Hi everyone!

 

Welcome to our fifth official Community Movie Night! 

 

This month's theme was Sci-Fi movies and tonight is finally the night - After you have been voting for three days the decision has been made for Arrival and I hope you are ready for some extraterrestrial energy among us (counting the UFOs as we speak) 👽

 

How does it work? Well, as always we will all gather here tonight at 8pm and simultaneously start watching the film. The comment section will give us the opportunity to then discuss on the who's and what's of the film whilst watching it. The film itself is readily available on Netflix (direct link here), so we hope a lot of you can join but feel free to get involved even if you only have Arrival on a Blu-Ray or another streaming service hugging

 

Looking forward to seeing you back here at 8pm, with your popcorn at the ready, steady, watch!

Some people see things as they are and ask "Why?"; I dream of things that never were and ask "Why not?"

Really enjoyed this film smiling

Sensed the odd moment of 2001 A Space Odyssey / Remberance Day / Close Encounters of the Third Kind.

Pleased I chose to go into Netflix slight_smile

Time to work together, and listen to the whales. 

 

Interesting. Food for thought.

 

Thank you for organising it.

Watch it again (naturally in a non-linear time line) and you'll pick up the things that you missed the first time...

Really interesting film! I'm not quite sold on the idea that learning an alien language can suddenly let you see the future but I definitely enjoyed the movie and thought it was really well made and thought provoking.  

 

Great fun as always guys! Thanks for joining us and looking forward to the next one. slight_smile

Yeah sorry, thought it was rubbish.

Not my kind of film at all.
