November 2025: Napoleon Dynamite

Gosh! That was a fun night! The disco ball was up and a solid crew gathered to watch Napoleon Dynamite. 

Trivia included both movie related questions and questions about fads over time, with “She” maintaining the lead for much of the night and taking first place. 

A few themed drinks were on offer and multiple tater tot dishes were served (straight up and wrapped in pastry pockets). 

There was one button design and a poster to remind us that at Welton Court your wildest dreams will come true:

April 2025: The Life Aquatic with Steve Zissou


Blue shirts and red beanies were donned for the Welton Court Film Club’s showing of Wes Anderson’s aquatic adventure…a favourite of many of the attendees, but the first time around for co-host DM who had been saving up watching this movie for the just right time and with just the right people :)

Trivia was an exciting race to the finish with Team Nizu (NS) claiming champion status. 

Campari drinks were served, although sadly we had no intern to pour them. 

We had two button designs this time and stick-on badges:

November 2024: The Big Lebowski


“I’m the Dude. So that's what you call me. You know, that or, uh, His Dudeness, or uh, Duder, or El Duderino if you're not into the whole brevity thing.” And with that, 13 of us gathered for our second event of the Welton Court Movie Club, The Big Lebowski. There were robes, pj pants, a Cowichan sweater and bowling attire, including a most spectacular purple jumpsuit. The White Russians were flowing and the disco ball was up. 

A new trivia winner was crowned (N.S. aka ClassyCondor17) in a very lively competition. Who knew that the f-bomb was said 292 times in the movie or that The Dude was in every single scene (in detective noir fashion)!


Thanks again everyone for a very fun night. We truly have the best neighbours ❤️  (although the Dude might say “Yeah, well, you know, that's just like, uh, your opinion, man.”)

Inaugural Event: February 2024 - Groundhog Day

Thanks to everyone who attended our first Welton Court Film Club screening, Groundhog Day…on actual Groundhog Day! In addition to watching the film, the agenda included Bill Murray trivia (a tie between I.F. and M.C.), a reading of the article “Groundhog sees Jungian shadow, predicts everlasting winter of the soul” and the day’s Punxsutawney Phil news coverage.
