Meet Me Here listeners, if you still don't have any plans for this weekend, fear not. The Weekend Warmup is here to help with a whole bunch of ideas for fun things to do around the region this…
Not only is the Odyssey still in theaters, but Spider-Man Brand New Day starts this weekend, so you can see two movies that star Tom Holland getting help from Jon Bernthal that also features Zendaya.
But if you're feeling like seeing something different from the summer blockbuster hype, I have a few options like cinema therapy live at the Showbox.
A licensed therapist and a filmmaker will be discussing the Pirates of the Caribbean film series and dissecting the relationship between Will Turner and Elizabeth Swann.
He leaves her to become captain of the Flying Dutchman, and he only gets to see her once a decade.
So I'm curious what kind of ethical non monogamy agreement they have, if any.
One of a daring rescue of a princess kidnapped by a nefarious prince and his henchman with six fingers on one hand.
Tell your partner as you wish and go see The Princess Bride at the Mural Amphitheatre under the Space Needle.
Programming starts at 9pm with a handful of shorts before the movie itself.
If you're in the mood for something a little shorter, there's the Emerald City Short Film Festival.
This showcase of Washington State filmmakers has two screenings, 2.30 and 6.30 on Saturday at the SIP Film Center.
There's also a meet and greet and movie swap on Friday night if you want to trade movies with other aficionados.
Now, if you love a murder mystery and want to revisit the movie that redefined the genre forever and introduced audiences to Hannibal Lecter long before Anthony Hopkins took on the role, might I suggest Michael Mann's Manhunter, The Final Cut.
It's the director's cut, and it opens on Friday at CIFF Cinema Uptown.
Or, you know, you could just heed the siren's song and go see The Odyssey for a third time, like I am.
