The eleventh party…

Wednesday, October 28th, 2009

Thanks to everyone who came down to our super-scary Halloween party. I for one loved seeing A Nightmare on Elm Street on a big(ish) screen, and even though I’m a ‘grown up’ now, it still scared the pants off me like it did when I was 13! We hope you liked the pumpkins and the creepy music too!

Next Wednesday is our 11th party, and as it falls the night before bonfire night we thought we’d pay homage to Mr Fawkes by screening your choice of 1970’s conspiracy film! The 70’s was an absolutely cracking decade for conspiracies - and we can’t think of a more fitting decade (Watergate anyone…?) to showcase political scandal at it’s height!

Remember: with the new poll you can vote for an existing film, as well as adding your own choice of film, and if you really think one of the other film suggestions is complete pap you can ‘bury’ it (which is like knocking one vote off). To cast your vote just click on the square to the right of the film title you want to vote for. Also - you can vote for every film if you care to, but only one vote per film. Just to help you out if you’re feeling torn!

The vote closes at 12pm, Friday 30th October.

The tenth party…

Tuesday, October 13th, 2009

Well can you believe it - it’s our tenth party! It seems like only yesterday you were watching Ferris Bueller’s day off while we were panicking about the skipping DVD. Ah memories!

So yes back to the tenth party. Given it’s coming up to the end of October and all, we thought we’d throw a Halloween themed Arty Farty Film Party! We’ve gone for a classic genre spread across two decades, so get ready to scare yourself silly with your choice of 70’s / 80’s Slasher Horror!

Thanks for your votes folks. Coach Carter was pipped at the post by the one, the only… The Wrestler!

I’m really looking forward to seeing this as I missed it at the cinema. And I can’t live out the rest of my life without seeing a good hours worth of Mickey Rourke in fluorescent yellow spandex now can I?

All are welcome this Weds 7th October to join us at Arty Farty Film Party and marvel at Mickey’s physical prowess - and no I’m not talking about his rather erm… ‘interesting’ face. Doors are at 7pm as per, and we’ll be starting the film at 7:30pm sharp at An Outlet on Dale Street. Remember there’s a very limited seating capacity (30) so make sure you get there on time to avoid disappointment.

There will be £6 bottles of red and white wine available to purchase, as well as a range of lovely bottled beers, popcorn, nachos and penny sweets. And as always entrance is 100% free.

We hope to see you there!

The ninth party…

Hi there chaps, we hope you’re all doing well and not too distraught at having to wait two whole weeks for this film night. Damn that September for having 5 Wednesdays in it, September is nothing but trouble thank god its over eh?

Were storming back in with an emotional line up for the ninth party, we want you guys to vote for your top most titillating 00’s Sports Dramas. I can’t be bothered to get off my bum in the cold so lets watch some other guys get physical!
