Screening Info

Selection: Super Mario Bros.
Notes: What can the The Fortnightly Film Society's Shadowy Governing Brain Trust™ (Pat. Pend.) say about the death of Stephen Sondheim? Perhaps it shall suffice to acknowledge that the momentous passage of Broadway's peerless creative eminence is all the more deeply felt among the Fortnightly Film Society's membership (replete as it is with professionals and aficionados of the musical theater), and to suggest that we bereaved might process our turbulent emotions (and, in some small way, eulogize the great man) by means of an appropriate theme for this week's installment. And so, without further ado, you have just over 24 hours to nominate your (least) favorite... ... VIDEO GAME ADAPTATIONS! Remember: no Street Fighter and no BloodRayne, because we've already seen them. I can't remember if we've seen any other video game adaptations but, if so, then those are banned too.
