For our October 19, 2022 meeting, we agreed to watch the movie “Blade Runner”, the original 1982 film. The Sci-Fi and Fantasy Discussion Group was meeting via Zoom before it was cool! Lovers of science fiction and fantasy, at UUCPA and beyond, have been getting together online to talk about books, movies, and television episodes chosen by the group, every other month since early 2019.
We meet every other month, on the 3rd Wednesdays via Zoom, 7-8:30 p.m.
