Compulsory Film Appreciation
A Stellar Firma spin-off
Available now for our paid members on members.rustyquill.com and Patreon.
Compulsory Film Appreciation is a member-exclusive spin-off of Stellar Firma, featuring the return of fan-favourite characters Hartro Piltz and I.M.O.G.E.N.
After some mysterious boxes are found, it is decided that Hartro needs a hobby and that that hobby should be film appreciation. Hartro may not know what a film is, but she’s ready to find out – and to have facilitated post-film discussions with an omnipresent AI. From Die Hard to Footloose, The Hunger Games to Shrek, will any of these old-earth classics survive Hartro and I.M.O.G.E.N.’s ruthless reviewing?
Compulsory Film Appreciation is available to paid members at all tiers.
