    633: "Try looking at it another way" | James and the Giant Peach (1996)

    04/03/2026 | 1h 12 mins.
    After a tragically crunchy run-in with a rogue rhinoceros, young James escapes two nightmare aunts and tumbles into the world’s strangest road trip: a skyscraper-sized peach rolling across the countryside.

    Inside, he teams up with a crew of oversized insect roommates—part found family, part traveling circus—as they sail the fruit across the Atlantic while dodging sharks, seagulls, and the occasional bout of existential bug chatter. Along the way, James discovers that courage, friendship, and a little bit of weirdness can turn even the most miserable life into one very sweet adventure.

    Haunted by his past and a Borg collective that lives rent-free in his head, Captain Jean-Luc Picard must stop the cybernetic zombies from sabotaging Earth’s first warp flight—the very moment that puts humanity on the galactic map.

    While the crew fights a high-stakes game of "hide and seek" in the Jefferies tubes, Picard must find his inner Ahab to stop the Borg Queen. Meanwhile, Commander Riker has to sober up the legendary, yet perpetually hungover, Zefram Cochrane just in time to make history.

    631: "She said hand-some, not hand-less" | Kingpin (1996)

    18/02/2026 | 54 mins.
    After losing his bowling hand (and his dignity) to a vengeful scheme, washed-up pro Roy Munson survives on cheap booze and a comb-over that deserves its own zip code. His luck turns when he discovers Ishmael, an Amish bowling prodigy with a killer hook and zero world experience.

    The duo embarks on a road trip to Reno, dodging angry landlords and "milking" accidental bulls to reach a million-dollar showdown. To win, Roy must out-hustle his sleazy arch-nemesis, Ernie "Big Ern" McCracken.

    When a failed hockey player with a lethal slap shot and a short-fused temper discovers his grandmother is about to lose her home, he decides to trade the ice for the links. Happy Gilmore isn't your average golfer—he’s a beer-slugging, foul-mouthed underdog in a sport of country club snobs.

    05/02/2026 | 1h 5 mins.
    After inheriting a mysterious treasure map, young Jim Hawkins sets sail for the high seas with a crew of felt-covered misfits and a clueless captain. But the horizon turns dark when the ship’s charismatic cook, Long John Silver (Tim Curry), reveals he’s more interested in gold than gourmet meals. From psychedelic 'Cabin Fever' hallucinations to a tropical showdown with a pig-worshipping tribe, it’s a swashbuckling scramble where Jim must find his courage before the pirates make him walk the plank into a sea of chaos.
