Holiday Feast: For a short while we thought it might be possible to have our annual Feast, celebrating the season and maybe even the light at the end of the Covid tunnel. However, with numbers rising again, it looks like the light was an onrushing train. Therefore, no official MonSFFA party. We will be on Zoom, December 11th, to be among friends. No big presentations, just fun and maybe games.

3) Audio Game: How well do you know your SF/F film and television? “The Imperial Senate will no longer be of any concern to us. I have just received word that the Emperor has dissolved the council permanently.” Can you identify the sci-fi movie character who spoke those words? Or the actor who played him? In which movie were these lines spoken?

This afternoon, we’ll be playing audio snippets of quotations, catch-phrases, and sequences of dialogue, all from SF/F films or television series, and challenging players to identify the character speaking the words. And the actor playing that character! And the movie or TV show in which the lines were spoken!

How well do you know your SF/F film and television? Let’s test your knowledge, shall we…
