Week 5: Sanctuary

This week we’ll be showing the rest of season 3 of Sanctuary, the show where locking dangerous creatures up in the name of keeping everyone safe never seems like a bad idea, no matter how many times as season it causes problems. But I digress…

We’ll be in the Chemical Engineering building, M18 as always; with a 5PM start and 6PM dinner run. Hope to see you there, have a good week!

Week 4: Eureka

Week 2: Game of Thrones

This week we’ll be showing as much of the first season of Game of Thrones as we can get through; based on the first book in the fantasy series A Song of Ice and Fire, the TV show is full of intrigue, sex, violence, political machinations and sex and violence. It’s just started showing in Australia, and has been well received in the USA and the UK. As usual we’ll be starting at 5, with pizza around 6. This week, and all the rest we’ll be in the Chemical Sciences building, room M18. It’s building F10 on any campus map, and M18 is outside the main entrance of the building, which is on the side facing away from the main runway. We’ll have the banner hanging in the windows, for you to look out for.

Week 1: Mystery Unverse

Location Update: We will be in ChemSci M18, same as last screening of last session.
I hope you’ve had a good break – no working just having fun. I know I did!
This week we’ll be showing the last seven episodes of Mystery Unverse, but we still need to confirm a location for the screening. We’re looking at Rex Vowel and another email will be sent out closer to Friday when we have a room set in stone. In any event, we’ll start at 5PM, and if we’re not at Rex Vowels and you haven’t received an email in time, signs will be up to point the way to the new location,
happy start of term!

Week 13: Mystery Univrse

So this’ll be the last week of this semester, though we are planning some screenings during the winter break. If we do, I’ll tell you (Why on earth wouldn’t I?!?)
In this week’s news, we’ll be showing the middle third of Mystery Screening Universe season 2. Pizza will be at Six Pm and we’ll be starting 5Pm, though this Friday we’ll be in the ChemSci Theatre M18, in the Chemical Sciences building (grid reference F10, next to the law building, diagonally opposite the Red Centre Theatre). The theatre is outside the building’s main entrance, which is on the side facing away from the Main Runway.

Week 12: Haven

I hope that any impending exams or assessments aren’t worrying you (like they’re worrying me!) , as we’ll be showing the second part of Haven season 1. As always, we’ll be in the Red Centre theatre from 5PM onwards, with dinner a bit later. See you there!

Week 10: HellBoy

This Friday, we’ll be showing a Guillermo del Toro/Hellboy marathon. Hellboy is, well, a boy from hell, who was summoned by the Nazis to defeat the allies near the end of the 2nd World War. They failed and now Hellboy fights crime! And giant monsters from the abyss.
We’ll be showing the two movies, followed by Pan’s Labyrinth if we have enough time. The screening will start 5 in the Red Centre Theatre, with a dinner run later.
In news that I’m passing on from other sources, UNSW security would like me to tell you that while there’s been an increase in thefts on campus, they’re working with the police to sort things out. The best way to get more information is to follow them on Twitter and check their Facebook page.
See you Friday!

Week 9: Primeval & Source Code Giveaway

I hope you all had a good week off, this Friday at 5PM, we’ll be showing Primeval. A British Sci-Fi show about strange creatures that come through time and have to be stopped. Both for their safety and ours. Since you know, a giant dinosaur running around on the freeway wouldn’t be good for anyone.
It’s in the Red Centre as usual, with dinner a bit later, during dinner we’ll also get the chance to do something a bit more fun; we’ve got 10 vouchers to get 2-tickets for the price of 1 to see the movie Source Code (You’d never have guessed) We’ve also got 5 double vouchers. No ticket buying involved, just rock up and hand it into the cinema and get two tickets. Nifty!
How can you get one of these vouchers? Turn up to the screening this Friday, and during dinner we’ll be raffling them out (a hat may or may not be involved) to give you good reason to come along here’s a quick synopsis of the movie. I hope you can all make it along.
SOURCE CODE
When decorated soldier Captain Colter Stevens (Jake Gyllenhaal) wakes up in the body of an unknown man, he discovers he’s part of a mission to find the bomber of a Chicago commuter train. In an assignment unlike any he 9;s ever known, he learns he’s part of a government experiment called the “Source Code,” a program that enables him to cross over into another man’s identity in the last 8 minutes of his life. With a second, much larger target threatening to kill millions in downtown Chicago, Colter re-lives the incident over and over again, gathering clues each time, until he can solve the mystery of who is behind the bombs and prevent the next attack. Filled with mind-boggling twists and heart-pounding suspense, Source Code is a smart action-sci-fi-thriller directed by acclaimed Duncan Jones (Moon) also starring Michelle Monaghan, Vera Farmiga and Jeffrey Wright. 

IN CINEMAS MAY 5

Mid-Session Break: No Ordinary Family

So, it’s mid session break and we’re showing the continuation of the first season of No Ordinary Family. Good fun for the whole family, especially since it’s about a family.
We’ll be starting at the normal time of 5PM, and going until 11PM, with dinner around 6.
And just to make sure no one forgets, there’s a meetup to see Thor at the Randwick Ritz tomorrow, at 11:20 AM. You can get ticket refunds, and see a fun movie with a bunch of fun people. How do I know it’s fun? I’ve seen it. How do I know the people are fun? I know them. My goodness I’m magical I really am.
Hope to see you at this week’s screening, and if not, I hope you’re having a nice break
