Join The Reel Debaters for a Star Wars Trivia Night so powerful, even Yoda would RSVP. We’ve got:
🔹 Over 40 original trilogy questions to test your Jedi mind tricks
🔹 A surprise round of obscure Star Wars facts (Because who doesn't want to know which droid made a cameo in E.T.?)
🔹 A cosplay challenge – dress to impress or face the wrath of Jar Jar Binks fashion police
🔹 A Star Wars colouring contest – because even bounty hunters need art therapy
Whether you’re a Sith scholar, Jedi junkie, or just in it for the snacks and beer on tap, this night will be fully operational.
👾 Bring your lightsaber. And maybe a few friends.
🍺 Bar available, but no Death Sticks.

About Us
Set in the backdrop of Winnipeg’s booming film industry, The Reel Debaters Podcast is a motley crew of film-obsessed nerds and selected colleagues that sit down each episode, blending comedy and a deep insight of cinema with ridiculous, satirical debates and facetious musings on media.
Examples are but are not limited to:
Could James Bond be a nanny?
Best new SNL Cast?
What would Indiana Jones and Lara Croft's wedding look like?
What if Conan The Barbarian could teach Sex Ed?
When not arguing the world of make-believe you can listen to the reel talk sessions which get more conversational with the best of film and TV as well as industry interviews from inside Manitoba film industry, across Canada and to Hollywood’s front door.
New episode every Saturday
