Past society events

In the mood for some light entertainment? Come along to our Board Games night! We have plenty of games to pass the time, as well as having a chat about almost anything! From the serious (Settlers of Catan) to the silly (Cards Against Humanity), there's something for everyone. We'll be in one of the smaller meeting rooms on the ground floor of the international building (INT031; if you're not sure where that is, we'll be happy to meet in the Arts building foyer and walk down beforehand.

Come along and watch 'Stardust' - the fairy tale that has no rules! Director Matthew Vaughn (Kick-Ass, X-Men: First Class, Kingsman) takes us to magical lands filled with witches, goats and cross-dressing pirates! Featuring an all-star cast including Charlie Cox (Daredevil), Claire Danes, Rickey Gervais, Rupert Everett with Michelle Pfeiffer (Batman Returns) and Robert De Niro!

Our first cinema trip of the year will take us to the new 'Blade Runner 2049'; the highly anticipated follow-up to Ridley Scott's cult classic. We're attempting to see the 4:30pm showing at Vue Cinema, Staines. If you don't know where it is, or how to get there, we will be meeting at Egham train station at 4pm.

The four committee members of The Institute For Impure Science (IFIS) shall each choose a film; they could be anything Science Fiction-Fantasy related, and you will have the chance to vote for the film you think is best. Which film will reign superior? The choice is yours...

If you enjoy having a friendly chat/debate about all things Science Fiction and Fantasy, then join us on our Pub Crawl! Starting at Crosslands, we'll be travelling to as many pubs as we can around the Egham/Englefield Green area. How many will we visit? Will we be able to do a 'Golden Mile'?Please note that alcohol is completely optional.

To kick off the new academic year to an awesome start, the Science Fiction-Fantasy Society is proud to present one of the highest grossing movies of 2017: Wonder Woman!

The 22nd of September is said to be the birth date of Bilbo and Frodo Baggins, but obviously separated by many years.

This is our Welcome Back Event, aimed mostly at at returning members. That said everyone is welcome if you want to try our society (so bring your friends) we have simply decided to postpone any free pizza until next week to give Freshers a little more notice.

The academic year has finished. Events will resume once the new year starts.

A long standing tradition of the society holds that on the social that happens to fall on the event of Ladies day at Ascot (3rd Thursday in June), that members should arm themselves with peanuts and prepare for coming of the Hat.

This happens every year on the 25th of May as a tribute to the late Douglas Adams. As a reference to the awesome Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy, fans carry with them a towel in his honour. Do you know where your towel is?

An event called Rogue One held by IFIS on 2017/05/16 19:00 in/at HLT1

Free Comic Book day is a yearly event where various comic stores around the world, give away specifically chosen comics, in a bid to promote comics to a wider audience. There are a number of stores taking part in this within the London area, although this trip will only focus on the ones located in the centre of town.

Star Wars day is every year on the 4th of May. It is derived from a pun on the Jedi phrase "May the force be with you", namely "May the Fourth be with you".

Royal Holloway is closed over the Easter period.

This day is celebrated as the Fall of Sauron. As of 2003 that day is known as Tolkien Reading Day, an event to encourage the use of Tolkien's works in education and library reading groups.

As the last event of the term, if the committee has any money left we will be laying on more food!All are welcome!
