[OPEN] Back in Hollywood today, technicolor turned to gray

WHO: John Egbert + Whoever feels like showing up
WHERE: One of the theaters at Flix
WHEN: Friday, November 9th
WHAT: Movie marathon! Ghostly interactions! Games? Free snacks. It's a movie mingle y'all
WARNINGS: Three-foot anthropomorphic lizards and a four-eyed cat, maybe, but that's about it.



[At some point early Friday morning, every single Retrospec user will receive a message from "eggs over easy" written in a bright blue font.]

hey! all-day marathon at flix in theater 4, my treat. because i like movies and everything is exhausting and movies are not. snacks provided, please don't feed the cat or the lizard. see you then!

[If you decide to head over there at any point on Friday, you'll be ushered into theater 4 and find a wide-spread set-up.

Movies on today's line-up include the Recollé version of "Your Name", "Jurassic Park", "Raiders of the Lost Ark", "The Empire Strikes Back", "The Lion King", "Gladiator", "Interstellar", "Emma", "The King's Speech", "Fantastic Mr. Fox", and if you ask nicely John will probably throw in a bluray of your choice. The running theme here seems to be movies with well-known scores or movies people have recommended to him.

As these movies are playing, half of the theater is meant for seating and the other half has been converted for snacks and mingling. There's a large spread of movie counter snacks along with some homemade cookies, sandwiches and more. Help yourself to these foods and be sure to share! If you're not careful, they may just turn into gold.

Every now and then, you'll run into a ghost or two who've decided to join in on the fun. These ghostly guests will ask all about the movies on screen and some will have very strong opinions. They might even share some secrets with you or tell tales about the premiere of these films if they were alive back then. The ghosts will also encourage you to mingle with other people (and luckily for everyone, John's put subtitles on all films so you can chat and still read what's going on on screen.)

In another portion of the theater there's a small set-up for those who want movies as background noise. There are small tables down in front and high in the back of the theater to eat, chat, and play board games and card games.

And don't even think about littering! If you're finished with your plates and your cups, a helpful young lady will be coming by to collect the trash and dutifully return to her "father's" side. John's…a little too thrilled having a three-foot tall lizard wandering around, but it's fine? Every now and then you can also find him carrying a small cat if she's not lingering around Dave instead.

It's a rotating cast of ghosts and people with different soundtracks throughout the day. Will you spend a couple of hours here?]

[Elliot is there like he said he would be! He greatly approves of all the movie choices, or at least the ones he recognized. He's one of those mostly invested in the soundtrack, honestly, so he pays the most attention when there's a great musical score moment.

Otherwise, he's open to talking. He's friendly to folks, living and dead, and willing to strike up a conversation. Though, the helpful young trash collector sure gets a look]


Um...is that dinosaur new?

Ahaha....does it say something about my life that I can believe it?

What's her name?
invocate: (« worried »)

[personal profile] invocate 2018-11-11 06:41 pm (UTC)(link)
a -- your name

[Li-Na's watched this movie probably six times and has a digital copy as well, but there's nothing like watching a movie you enjoy on the big screen. So don't mind her as she sniffles her way through Taki finding out the truth about Mitsuha.]

It's not faaaaaaaaaair.

[omg Li-Na you know exactly how this movie goes]


b -- snack time

[In between watching Your Name and Raiders of the Lost Ark, Li-Na can be found having some snacks. Cookies, a sandwich, and then she gets to the candy...]

Have you had these before?

[holding a box of Swedish Fish]


c -- raiders of the lost ark

[Li-Na has never seen this movie before. So the whole opening scene is kind of... shocking for her.]

That was... rather gory...
thesettingsun: upset cry (I used to love!)

[your name]
[Guess who hasn't seen this movie and only knows through internet osmosis that it's sad.

Guess who is a loud crier. Hopefully you're not sitting too close to him.]


[cat, I'm a kitty cat]
[Shuji is spending 90% of the time that he's not focused on films trying to pet the four-eyed cat.]

She's so cute... I want a cat just like her.

[okay Shuji]

[ every transformers flick, every altrim blu-ray and even classics like the iron giant, 2017’s power rangers, godzilla vs mechagodzilla and more (so much more) comes prepped in a rather large bag eren uses to haul his maneuver gear around.

you can find him outside, where he has a t-shirt, and a hoodie, and a bright eyed look you’d never want to take away from a human being. it’s pure.

eren came too prepared, but he’s holding the bag in his arms like the next bouncy child in line for show and tell. except he’s 20 and he has a mega passion.

if you prefer to get straight to the films, welcome to the mecha room, where we’ll be streaming mech movies around the clock, and you’ll probably find eren there, standing through the entire movie (that i can totally randomize) because he just can’t sit still with the mechs.

don’t destroy his dreams, he’ll destroy you. ]

I have to steal your cat now. I hope you can understand.

[He won't really engage in catnapping, but he certainly will give Mewpac all the pets she could want.]

[Li-Na sniffles a little and looks over at John]

Ah, Chiyo suggested this one? She does love her romances.

[so does Li-Na]

I guess the pain in the middle of the movie makes the ending even better?

[ eren isn’t allowed to eat during two times: sports and mech movies. this proves truth when eren is standing in front of the best seat possible to get all the imax quality sounds and imagery. he hardly takes his eyes off the screen when john whooshes to his side, only gesturing a little to the other’s shoulder as if he tried to pat it before giving up.

atlantic rim 2: uprising is just starting and he’s watched this who knows how many times but it never. gets. old. ]


Wait for the fights.

[ right now it’s just apocalyptic news updates ]

O-Oh, that's....well, that's a strange name to pick, but I guess if it's just what the game called it you can't really help that.

[Just what the frick kind of messed up game was that though??]

So she's just like your traveling companion?
thesettingsun: smile (is displayed to quite remarkable effect)

I will fight Dave for your cat's honor.

[Or just for their cat.]

Last month ruined a lot of plans I think.

[Li-Na accepts the tissue, thanks John]

The whole... twist in this movie might resonate more with us too, since it has a lot to do with memories. Taki and Mitsuha's memories of each other and even their own memories about what happened. They forget like our friends who lose the app forget us. Like we'll forget the lives we're remembering if we drop off the app.

Eheh...yeah. Almost sounds like they named things by pulling words out of a hat. [STARES at Casey blowing a spit bubble and discreetly leans away. Please no spit on him]

Oh wow....well, at least you had company on that ship! Casey sounds like a really loyal con ... companion.

[HE CAN'T DO IT FAM]

[ look.

listen.

eren was about to sit down, but he jolts right back up when this happens:

Gypsy’s still the best one— but, look, [ that. whip. ] Imagine if I could do that.
