Not that anybody asked but this week we packed the popcorn and scouted some questionable venues because we're figuring out our Top 3 Places We Would Want To Screen A Movie. Forget your standard multiplex with its overpriced nachos and reclining seats, we're asking where a film would truly hit different. Does a horror movie need a location that's already trying to kill you? Would a war film play better somewhere the history actually happened? And is there a spot so perfect for a screening that it might just ruin cinemas forever? What will make our final Top 3 list this week? Expect watching the Emoji Movie the mirror of a rental car, sexual union and The Collected Works Of Pops: A Study Of Prompts and Consequences, vol 1.
