Mingle Post: Movie Night

[passingmod]

Who: Everyone! Open to All
What: "Movie Night" mingle log
When: any time agreed upon by the players
Where: anywhere there might be movies showing: theatres, dvd rooms, homes, drive-ins. also, movie settings.

It's an old, old, story: falling asleep and dreaming of that movie that was playing until just a few moments ago. Maybe taking the part of the hero, maybe the dastardly villain, or maybe even just some side character there to fill a purpose in the plot and no more. It might be a dashing adventure, a passionate drama, a sickly sweet romance - anything at all. But it's playing out right now.

Or maybe the movie is playing up on the screen. There's a comfortable couch at a DVD Room, or a seat at the theatre (amid a crowd, or alone with that special someone at the back of the room), or even just a comfortable chair in a warm, cozy house.
Whatever it may be, movies are the order of the night.

(ooc: This is a post to keep threads together for the Movie Night theme. Separate posts are also fine, and this one is optional. Feel free to be part of a movie, or watching one; if need be, specify in the subject line)

[Kanda knew John was probably going to go with them but whatever. He'd probably stay a few minutes at Ami's house before leaving anyway. This date was ruined anyway. The minute Ami was back into the isle, he took her hand and led her off.]

Enjoyed yourself? [Because he sure didn't.]

I wanted to see that film for a long time. It's been publicized after its entry into one of the international film festivals.

[Not what Kanda meant at all, probably.]

[John was not a person of art, but he understood the film somewhat. While he mildly appreciated it, he doesn't think of himself as a know-how on art.

He remains silent. He knows what Kanda meant, but that's why he's here.]

[So John knew what a guy thinks. Big deal. Get over yourself. He shot John a glare before continuing to walk, arm around Ami as they finally hit the street.]

I don't know what that is.

They're a festival for new movies to be shown. Some of them are very famous, and movies that earn recognition or prizes there become very well-known, too.

[Obeying military professionalism, Master Chief Petty Officer SPARTAN-117 gives no fucks as he stares up front in spite of Kanda's glare.

Independent film festivals were common in his world, too. With the Human-Covenant war and the destruction of places that could have been Space Hollywood, they could have had a massive surge. Not that he watched a lot of these films.]

[Film hadn't exactly been invented yet, everyone was barely getting all excited over 'photography'. He could see why people would like it but it still seemed like such a waste of time. Kanda hardly ever had a break from exorcist work, sitting around watching something didn't really seem like a good waste of energy. Gardening is better]

Next time let's just watch them at home.

They're too new. Besides that, some of these won't make it to a DVD release.

[So there, Kanda. Coming was worthwhile.]
