Hi Louisa

Thanks for arranging yesterday, it was great fun! 20th July is in my diary, look forward to seeing you all then for drinks (oh and was there some mention of a film??)

[EDFilmClub]

Hi Guys,

I've had to rearrange Film Club to the evening of Fri 19th July. Hope that's Ok!

I'll post more details nearer the time, but save the date! Louisa

[charliebubs]

I'm free Fri 19th :) It's in the diary!

[EDFilmClub]

Hi Everyone,

Just a reminder that our next meeting is soon approaching - Friday 19th July.

We'll meet in the evening at The Rye Pub and head down to the Peckham Plex to watch a film for the bargain price of ?5. Then head back to the Rye for some drinks. Exact timings will be confirmed nearer the time, once the cinema have published film times.

For those of you who haven't been before, Film club is a really good laugh! It just consists of meeting lovely local people and having drinks and watching a film together. Every meeting has been a real success with new people coming every time.

pm me with any questions or hope to see you there! Watch this thread for timing updates.

Film times not yet posted on the Peckham Plex website but will put full details on here as soon as they are. L

[charliebubs]

Looking forward to it!

Hello, I hope to come along to this, but I won't know for definite until the day itself. Do film club attendees need to book cinema tix in advance, or is it OK just to turn up? Thanks in advance!

[EDFilmClub]

That's great - hope you can make it!

We normally just head down to the cinema together about 20mins before the film and buy are tickets then. You are more than welcome to buy tickets in advance if you prefer.

[EDFilmClub]

Details of this months Film Club:

Meet at The Rye pub (31 Peckham Rye) at 19:30 for some pre-film drinks

Leave the Rye at 20:10 to walk to the the Peckham Plex cinema and buy tickets

The Film 'The World's End' starts at 20:35

More drinks at the Rye afterwards!

The film has excellent reviews (94% on rotten tomatoes) and should give us all a laugh! I'll put some blurb about it at the end of this post.

Absolutely everyone welcome, young, old, singles, couples. We have new people coming every time so don't be shy! Pm me with any questions and hope to see you on Friday. Louisa

The World's End

Director Edgar Wright and actors Simon Pegg and Nick Frost reunite for a third film following the successes ?Shaun of the Dead? (2004) and ?Hot Fuzz? (2007).

In ?The World?s End,? 20 years after attempting an epic pub crawl, five childhood friends reunite when one of them becomes hellbent on trying the drinking marathon again. They are convinced to stage an encore by Gary King (Simon Pegg), a 40-year-old man trapped at the cigarette end of his teens, who drags his reluctant pals to their hometown and once again attempts to reach the fabled pub ? The World?s End. As they attempt to reconcile the past and present, they realise the real struggle is for the future, not just theirs but humankind?s. Reaching The World?s End is the least of their worries.

Hi Guys,

Thanks for your messages re tomorrow. See you at 19:30.

I'll have a film club sign with me for newbies! Louisa

[laura87]

Hi everyone,

I'm thinking about coming along tonight, I have never been before and am a little nervous about turning up on my own.

Will be great to meet some new people so if I am looking a little shy and standing on my own please someone give me a big wave!

Looking forward to meeting you all

Hi Guys,

We're in the Rye - on the 2nd table straight in front of you as you walk in. L

[EDFilmClub]

Thanks to everyone who came to Film Club last night. It was great to see familiar faces and new ones!

Hope you recommend the film to all your friends to go and watch! I'll post the next meeting date soon. Remember to watch family fortunes tonight......

[charliebubs]

Thanks for arranging L. Lovely to see everyone again. Can we go back to a Saturday for next meet? Fridays are too tiring!!!! Charlie x

[philosophie]

Sorry that I missed this! Hope to go this month... Fridays are generally better for me than the weekend, but I'll see what you pick, and fingers crossed I can make it!

[charliebubs]

Did we arrange a date for the next meet?!

[ed_findlay]

Hi there

I was wondering whether it would be possible for another newbie to come along to the next meeting.

Thanks a lot!

Ed

[EDFilmClub]

Hi Everyone,

The next meeting won't be for a few weeks due to the craziness of everyone's diaries! I'll keep you posted and Ed, you will be very warmly welcomed!

Louisa

[EDFilmClub]

Hi All,

Next meeting: Sat 26 Oct.

Lets meet in the Rye pub in the eve.

I'll post timings once film times are published.

Hope to see some old and new faces there!

Louisa x

[charliebubs]

I'm in!!!! :-)

[EDFilmClub]

Sat 26th is also the EDF meet up so we could always pop to their meeting after the film if we feel like it!

For anyone that has never been to film club before:

We meet at the rye pub and walk down to peckham Plex for the bargain ?5 cinema ticket! After the film we go for drinks in the rye again, but perhaps this time we'll find the ever popular 'meet new people in east Dulwich', probably at the EDT. Let's play it by ear.

We always have new people at each meeting so don't be shy, it would be lovely to see you!

[annalouise]

My husband and I moved to ED a few months ago and would love to come to this. See you there!

Anna

[EDFilmClub]

That's great Anna - will be lovely to meet you both!

There's a good mix of couples and people coming on their own so we always have a good mix!

Hopefully see some other new faces on Saturday.

There are some good films out at the moment so fingers crossed for a good one!

[charliebubs]

A good one?! Why break with tradition L :)
