- Oct 116:30 PMFilm: "I Saw the TV Glow" (2024)Understanding the potential blowback a broad claim like this one could have, it still is worth making: I Saw the TV Glow should be required viewing for any Buffy fan. While not about Buffy, exactly, this film understands and portrays deftly late-90s fandom of CW, UPN, syndicated, and various other antenna television shows that still managed to feel like a back alley. Here, teenager Owen is just trying to make it through life in the suburbs when his classmate introduces him to a mysterious late-night TV show (The Pink Opaque), which is a vision of a supernatural world beneath their own. In the pale glow of the television, Owen's view of reality begins to crack. GET TICKETS!

- Oct 131:00 PMScooby-Doo (2002)When Gen X nostalgia reinvigorated 1970s pop culture during the 1990s, the TV cartoon Scooby-Doo, Where Are You! was undoubtedly a belle of that ball. That nostalgia infused with corporate interests to ensure a Mystery Machine shirt could be purchased at Gadzooks nationwide. It also set the slow-growing seeds of a live-action film that arrived in that nostalgia's faded light with keen self-awareness to both lean into and redefine its characters and tropes, not unlike the A Pup Named Scooby-Doo 1980s reboot. In this film version, Scooby-Doo and his mystery-solving buddies Fred (Freddie Prinze Jr.), Daphne (Sarah Michelle Gellar), Velma (Linda Cardellini), and Shaggy (Matthew Lillard) have disbanded after shuttering Mystery, Inc. When each one is invited to the ominously named Spooky Island to investigate hauntings at the popular Spring Break locale, the crew ascertains whether the threats are paranormal or more earthly. GET TICKETS!
- Oct 133:30 PMFilm: "Pacifiction" (2022)As A.O. Scott wrote in The New York Times, Pacifiction mixes "John le Carré by way of David Lynch — a feverish and haunting but also wry and meditative rumination on power, secrecy and the color of clouds over water at sunset." On the French Polynesian island of Tahiti, the High Commissioner of the Republic and French government official De Roller (Benoît Magimel) is a calculating man with flawless manners. His somewhat broad perception of his role brings him to navigate the high end 'establishment' as well as shady venues where he mingles with the locals. Especially since a persistent rumor has been going around: the sighting of a submarine whose ghostly presence could herald the return of French nuclear testing. GET TICKETS!

- Oct 191:00 PMThe Met Opera Live in HD: "Grounded" (Tesori)Two-time Tony Award-winning composer Jeanine Tesori's powerful new opera Grounded, commissioned by the Met and based on librettist George Brant's acclaimed play, wrestles with the ethical quandaries and psychological toll of 21st-century warfare. Mezzo-soprano Emily D'Angelo, one of opera's most compelling young stars, portrays Jess, a hot-shot fighter pilot whose unplanned pregnancy takes her out of the cockpit and lands her in Las Vegas, operating a Reaper drone halfway around the world. As she struggles to adjust to this new way of doing battle, she fights to maintain her sanity, and her soul, as she is called to rain down death by remote control. Met Music Director Yannick Nézet-Séguin oversees the Met premiere of Tesori's kaleidoscopic score and a cast that also features tenor Ben Bliss as the Wyoming rancher who becomes Jess's husband. Michael Mayer's high-tech staging, using a vast array of LED screens, presents a variety of perspectives on the action, including the drone's predatory view from high above. GET TICKETS
