You didn't think the term was gonna be over on the Tuesday right? Have a final drink before the Easter holidays.

This is the last movie of the term, and we honestly have no idea what we're gonna do for it. We'll take any suggestions (even the bad ones)...

A lot of great movies have been brought to us from the House of Mouse, so we're gonna watch a Disney Movie!

We're doing another collaboration with Anime & Manga Society; and we've decided to try out a relatively new film that isn't Studio Ghibli! 'Your Name' follows the story of Taki and Mitsuha who both long for something more in their lives, but soon they begin to switch bodies! As they try to figure out what's happened to them, they realise that they need to work together to avert an incoming catastrophe!

Bruce Willis, Joseph Gordon-Levitt, time travel, and Writer/Director Rian Johnson - what more could you ask for? 'Looper' follows the story of Joe, in 2044, whose job is to execute victims sent back through time. However, when his future self travels back and escapes, it's up to Joe to fix things before he and/or his future self are killed.
