Join us for an upcoming movie gathering:
Disney’s Moana Friday, May 21st 6-9 PM
Sign up on the Popcorn Theology email list to receive the link to our zoom video conference gathering. The link to the zoom video conference room (for group gathering and discussion) is sent a day before the movie.
And if you need access to Disney Plus, send a request to Kendra at re-assistant.org and she will send you log in information to the church Disney Plus account. This is usually sent the day of the movie.
Here is how Popcorn Theology Works
Movies are entertaining and educational. This year, UUCUC will sponsor several movie nights for varying audiences. Since we are unable to gather at the church, we will use the following method.
How we watch movies together, social distance style:
• First, we gather on a Zoom call to light the chalice, say hello to each other and introduce the movie.
• Second, everyone watches the first half of the movie in their own home (you pop your own popcorn). Most of the movies we will watch are widely available on streaming platforms like Netflix. If you do not have a Netflix account, the church has one you can borrow.
• Third, we gather at intermission and talk about what we viewed and learned to this point.
• Fourth, we watch the rest of the movie.
• Fifth, we gather to discuss the movie in greater length.
Some of the movies will be for all ages. Some for adults. Some for youth and adults. The multi-generational opportunities are endless. Ready to try it with us? It is enjoyable for all ages and has some excellent discussion elements for those of us facing change and transition. And, let us face it: we are all facing change and transition.
To view most movies, we use Netflix, Hulu or Disney Plus from the comfort of our home. The Popcorn Theology Design Team set up a crowdsourcing system for sharing Netflix, Hulu and Disney Plus. Please take a few minutes to fill out this survey (it is quick and easy) to share and to request access to share with someone.
Michele will send you more information about how we engage in this online, safe, socially distanced, and entertaining learning event. If you want to be reminded of these and upcoming movies, sign up on our Popcorn Theology email list.
