Mixed Drinks and Free Movie Trivia at Videology

The next time you're in the mood to watch a great film in good company, give Netflix a break and head over to Videology in Brooklyn for what is undoubtedly some of the thriftiest fun to be had in New York. This combination bar, screening room and DVD rental service is the one place in the city where you'll find an ongoing fusion of tasty drinks, excellent movies, challenging trivia and classic snacks, all brought to you by a friendly staff in a refreshingly casual atmosphere.

Not only are many of the events and screenings at Videology completely free (which, in this day and age, is a detail to be cherished), they're also just... cool. Everything from Twin Peaks Bingo to hilarious comedy shows are happening nearly every night at this place, with regular happy hours and cocktail specials to boot. If trivia nights and local film showcases leave you wanting more, you can also become a member of Videology's DVD rental program (with no late fees!) and keep the fun going at home.

This weekend, preceding its usual Sci-Fi and TV Sunday, Videology is hosting PAUSE THE TAPE, a live taping of two fabulous podcasts working together to explore their experiences with film and music.
