I&rsquo;m looking at you, <a href=\"https:\/\/lutethebodies.com\/\">Alec<\/a>.<\/p>\n<h3>How to attend?<\/h3>\n<p>You will need:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>A modern web browser to act as your &ldquo;main screen&rdquo;.<\/strong> I&rsquo;ve tested that this works in the latest versions of Firefox, Chrome, Safari and Edge. If you can use Netflix <em>without the app<\/em> (i.e. through the website) then you should be fine. If not&hellip; you <em>might<\/em> be fine.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Not required, but recommended:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><strong>A &ldquo;second screen&rdquo; for riffing.<\/strong> Your mobile will be fine! You can &ldquo;push&rdquo; your comments directly to the bottom of everybody&rsquo;s &ldquo;main screen&rdquo;, and we&rsquo;ll do a Google Meet at the end for some face-to-face-time. And we might WhatsApp as we go-along with non-film-reated chatter, I suppose.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Pizza.<\/strong> I mean, you <em>could<\/em> eat something healthy if you prefer, I suppose.<\/li>\n<li><strong>Alcohol.<\/strong> I&rsquo;ll be drinking beer, but you can <abbr class=\"abbr\" title=\"Bring Your Own Bottle\">BYOB<\/abbr>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>If you can&rsquo;t make the start<\/strong> you can join in later, if you like. That&rsquo;s fine. Closer to the time I&rsquo;ll try to publish an approximate timetable of what&rsquo;ll be screening at what time. As a quick rule-of-thumb though, we&rsquo;re likely to screen <em>better films earlier in the evening, when you&rsquo;re more-likely to be soberer<\/em>.<\/p>\n<h3>What will we be watching?<\/h3>\n<p id=\"image-17920-1\"><a href=\"#lightbox-p-image-17920-1\" title=\"Zoom in on image\" aria-haspopup=\"dialog\" role=\"button\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-17932 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/danq.me\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/11\/home-night-2-schedule.jpg\" alt=\"We'll be watching The Neighbors' Window at 20:40, then - after an intermission - Mutant Blast at 21:10.
