Ranking Cinema Memberships, Fixing the “Weapons” Prequel, and Gently Criticising Spielberg

This week on FoF we’re ranking cinema memberships and cinemas and literal seats within those cinemas (yes, I have a spreadsheet), pitching a better idea for the Weapons prequel (or in my case, sequel), and gently offering one criticism of late-career Spielberg. But not before I relive my Gala Premiere chaos and reveal my secret favourite screen in London. All this and more!
