Thursday 12th August at 6pm – Dodgeball

A group of misfits enter a Las Vegas dodgeball tournament in order to save their cherished local gym from the onslaught of a corporate health fitness chain. White Goodman (Ben Stiller) is the owner and founder of Globo Gym, and would love nothing more than owning Average Joe’s Gymnasium. Peter LaFleur (Vince Vaughn) doesn’t want to lose his gym to Goodman, but can’t find a way to get $50,000 in time. Peter and his gang of gym buddies think of ways to raise money, finally settling on winning a dodge ball tournament. White Goodman retaliates by creating his own dodge ball team to finish off Peter. Peter’s team doesn’t do too well, until legendary ADAA champ Patches O’Houlihan (Rip Torn) turns up ready to train them.

Friday 13th August at 6pm – Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again

Five years after the events of Mamma Mia! (2008), Sophie prepares for the grand reopening of the Hotel Bella Donna as she learns more about her mother’s past. Discover Donna’s (Meryl Streep, Lily James) young life, experiencing the fun she had with the three possible dads of Sophie (Amanda Seyfriend). As she reflects on her mom’s journey, Sophie finds herself to be more like her mother than she ever even realized.

Saturday 14th August at 6pm – Ratatoille

A rat who can cook makes an unusual alliance with a young kitchen worker at a famous restaurant. A rat named Remy dreams of becoming a great French chef despite his family’s wishes and the obvious problem of being a rat in a decidedly rodent-phobic profession. When fate places Remy in the sewers of Paris, he finds himself ideally situated beneath a restaurant made famous by his culinary hero, Auguste Gusteau. Despite the apparent dangers of being an unlikely, and certainly unwanted, visitor in the kitchen of a fine French restaurant, Remy’s passion for cooking soon sets into motion a hilarious and exciting rat race that turns the culinary world of Paris upside down.
