Join Cindy, Vanessa, Special Guest Dave, and Hadas in our Common Room!
Topical Dish: Black Friday, TV Development Poaching from Movies, ESA Lands on a Comet, & Michelle MacLaren to Direct Wonder Woman
Main Discussion: Is there a renaissance? What topics do we focus on now in film? What might be the reason behind the lack of major awards for Sci Fi films? For Sci Fi Month, Dave suggested we discuss the recent Sci Fi Film Renaissance. Dave provided a master list which we tweaked and then voted on to narrow down to 9 films plus Interstellar.
Obsessions: Gossip Girl, Google Express, & Nick Jonas
