"Jesus!" "No, Moses!"

Picture
Chances are you have something to celebrate this week! This Sunday is Easter Sunday, and Passover has been observed during the past few days. These major holidays should be spent with family, observing your faith, and pigging out on Cadbury eggs and matzah. You know, the finer things in life.

But you know a little part of you wants to sneak away after all the festivities, get some ceremonial wine and call your besties to indulge in a little blasphemous activity. We won't judge you. That's the Lord's job. We're just here to provide structure to your shenanigans, and make sure your drunken escapades are clean and wholesome. And what's more clean and wholesome than the Old Testament?

The river turns into what, now? 

Hoo, boy.

Game #7: Rent

"Does Anybody Here Have a Gun? Will You Shoot Me?"

Picture
We all loved Rent once. In high school, when we were first learning about musical theater, we were all drawn to its strong emotional undercurrents, its modern themes, its "screw you" attitude towards establishment and its support of Bohemian culture and anarchy. When we're all older, we thought, when we all become artists, we'll be just like them. 

We did grow up. We grew up in a very different time. And we realized, not only are the ideals of Jonathan Larson's musical slightly suspect, not only are his characters straddling the line between three-dimensional and cardboard, but the feature length film based on his work sucks donkey balls. Now that we're working as hard as we can to put food on our table AND make art that we believe in, we can look objectively at this piece, see beyond the idealistic fog and examine the portrayal of "La Vie Boheme" that we fell in love with.

Let's face it, though, it helps to have a beer or four.

Game #6: Harry Potter and the Half Blood Prince

Hogwarts Hijinks!

Picture
When I choose which movie or show to make a game out of for any given week, it's done using a random number generator and a giant master list of media. I was not expecting to get a Harry Potter movie for a long, long time. But hey, I love Harry Potter as much as the next twenty-something, so any excuse to watch the movies is okay by me.

The sixth movie in this landmark series is where the filmmakers finally realized how to do a faithful adaptation of the beloved childrens' books by J.K. Rowling. Before now, they were just flailing. So does alcohol make the viewing experience better or worse?  You know we were excited to find out.

Game #5: The Land Before Time

"Do You Know the Way to the Great Valley?"

Picture
There's one scene that all of you remember from this movie: Littlefoot's mother dies after fending off a gigantic Tyrannosaurus Rex during an earthquake. It's one of the saddest animated movie deaths of all time, and it's not even Disney produced. 

Did you know there's a PLOT? And really cool characters? And deep spiritual undertones?

I remembered the first fifteen minutes of this movie, the ending, and not much else. What gives? Speaking for our merry band, it's not that we forgot the details of this movie. We repressed them.
