Movie Night at Wild Terra

Cozy chairs and sofas add to the inviting atmosphere in the lounge Tuesday nights.

The Wild Terra Cider Bar on the corner of NP Avenue and University Drive hosts weekly movie nights complete with free popcorn.

With the cool temperatures moving in and trees beginning to change, it is sometimes hard to convince yourself to go to class, especially when watching movies while wrapped up in a blanket on your couch is a way more attractive proposition than your 8 a.m. organic chemistry lecture.

The perfect compromise exists on Tuesday nights at the Wild Terra Cider Bar. Weekly at 7:30 p.m., Wild Terra screens movies in the second floor lounge. Say hello to your perfect reward for going to class and finishing your homework in time.

With various comfy sofas and chairs to choose from, I can guarantee this movie theater is more comfortable than West Acres.

There’s no need to worry about paying for tickets or overpriced popcorn because both are free. So even broke college students like myself can enjoy a fun outing. Feeling peckish for something more than popcorn? Order something from Wild Terra’s food menu instead. From cheese plates to flatbreads, they have something for everyone. Let me see you get a cheese plate at a Marcus Theatre.

The movie selected for the night I attended was “Dead Poets Society.” Luckily, the lights were off so no one had to admit they cried over Neil. If “Dead Poets Society” isn’t really your cup of tea, fear not, the movies selected span multiple periods and genres. Some past movie nights have featured “Tron” and “Caddy Shack.”

What are you waiting for? Buckle down on those Calculus problems and mark your calendar for next Tuesday. You deserve it. In the wise words of Tom Haverford of “Parks and Recreation,” “Treat yo’ self.” Follow Wild Terra Cider on Facebook to keep up with their movie night announcements.
