Who: OPEN to all!
What: Movies, movies, movies! And games and food too.
When: All day Saturday, June 7th (starts 11ish)
Where: Rec Center
Summary: Ginia throws a movie marathon at the rec center for entertainment and post-draft distractions.
Rating: PG-13 for some of the movies shown, but let's keep it around here or lower.


On Thursday, flyers were posted around the village with another notification of the movie marathon and the list of movies that will be shown:

The Sword in the Stone
Grease
Robin Hood: Men in Tights
Moulin Rouge
The Princess Bride
Jurassic Park
Clue
Rocky Horror Picture Show

Come Saturday, the list can also be found outside the rec center. Inside the center, there are tables set up filled with food: fruit and veggie platters, cookies and cake from the bakery, sandwiches, packages of popcorn (with a microwave nearby), and an assortment of packaged candy. As food begins running low, runners will be sent to the stores to bring back more. There are also drinks - water, sodas, juices, tea, and coffee. Alcohol is bring your own, but Ginia also has a small table set aside with some gin, whisky, vodka, and mixers.

Besides what seating is already in the rec center, additional chairs, large cushions, and even two beanbag chairs have been brought in. For those who want to hang out but not watch movies, there's still pool, board games, and a few deck of cards.

Enjoy, relax, and try not to think about the draft.

[He looks up at the man vacantly.]

I don't know. I don't think that I know what a movie is. What does it mean... to watch one?

[Well. That's just... sad. And familiar. He didn't get to watch movies until he was older too.

Evan gives a gentle smile.]


A movie is kind of like watching theater only it's not live. To watch one is to, well, look at the screen and learn the story that is playing. Only you don't have to applaud the actors and the special effects can be quite a bit better than stage ones.

[Evan pats the kids shoulder.]

C'mon and sit. It looks like a film should be starting shortly. Then you can experience your first movie.

[Mytho looks up curiously as he explains, trying to process the idea.]

Okay. [He'll sit wherever Evan indicates.] Like theater... So, is it like ballet...?

[Evan leads Mytho over to the unoccupied couch. The kid is really rather docile, which is a bit eerie.]

Yeah, sort of like ballet. Though most of the time the movies don't have ballet dancing. Still need to go to a proper theater for that, unless it's broadcasted.

[Evan looks at the screen, trying to gauge what movie will be starting. It looks like it's The Princess Bride. Not a bad choice for a first movie.]

I see.

[And he sits himself nicely on the couch, folding his hands on his lap as he watches.]

If they don't dance... then what do they do?
