While \u201cRaccoon City Cinema\u201d is still running into March, there\u2019s another very special line-up that\u2019s about to kick off; this time connected to the new album from Gorillaz, <em><strong>The Mountain<\/strong><\/em>. Promising a series showcasing the band\u2019s favorite films, there\u2019s a couple of added bonuses that\u2019ll have fans looking to buy tickets ASAP.\u00a0<\/p>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-very-special-gorillaz-album-release-event-is-coming-very-soon\">A Very Special Gorillaz Album Release Event Is Coming Very Soon<\/h2>\n<p>If you\u2019re already looking for where and how to snag tickets to <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" href=\"https:\/\/drafthouse.com\/\">Alamo Drafthouse<\/a>\u2019s latest Guest Selects program, you\u2019re in luck. You can pre-order your seats at this very moment for any of the showings we\u2019re about to reveal. Before we get to the movies, here\u2019s what you need to know about the music \u2013 thanks to Alamo\u2019s press release:\u00a0<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"wp-block-quote is-layout-flow wp-block-quote-is-layout-flow\">\n<p>On Thursday, February 26th, Alamo Drafthouse will host an exclusive album release event: Gorillaz Presents <em>The Mountain, The Moon Cave and The Sad God<\/em>, a 20-minute special video presentation \u2013 followed by a screening of Wim Wenders\u2019 2023 film <em>Perfect Days<\/em>, as picked by 2D. Attendees of this one-night-only album release event will receive a limited-edition keepsake, available exclusively at this screening.<\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p>Between the storytelling vision of Gorillaz, as well as theatrically skewing music videos, Alamo\u2019s cinematic exclusive is a perfect fit. So getting into that album release event for <em>The Mountain<\/em> is certainly going to be important to those who want to celebrate in style. However the fun spans through to March 19th \u2013 thanks to the rest of the programming selected by the four \u201cmembers\u201d of this virtual band.\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><\/figure>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-gorillaz-s-movie-picks-for-their-guest-selects-line-up-are-fittingly-eclectic-nbsp\">Gorillaz\u2019s Movie Picks For Their Guest Selects Line-up Are Fittingly Eclectic\u00a0<\/h2>\n<p>The reality behind Gorillaz is that anchors Damon Albarn and Jamie Hewlett (respectively the brains behind the musical and artistic styles) are the only actual flesh and blood members. Much like the 15 collaborations featured on <em>The Mountain<\/em>, an ongoing rotation of human artists have helped spice things up through iconic tracks of the past like \u201cClint Eastwood\u201d and \u201cFeel Good Inc.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>However, that doesn\u2019t mean the virtual members of Gorillaz don\u2019t have distinct personalities. You can see that through the notes provided by the band, and shared by Alamo Drafthouse, below:<\/p>\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><strong>Thursday, February 26 \u2013 Perfect Days\u00a0<\/strong><br \/>\u201cThis is about a bloke who follows his dream and gets a job as a bog cleaner. Being in a band is alright but hopefully I can achieve my dream one day and run dodgems at the funfair.\u201d \u2013 2D<\/li>\n<li><strong>Thursday, March 12 \u2013 Bad Santa<\/strong><br \/>\u201cThe story of a foul-mouthed, booze-soaked antihero who gets put straight by a kind-hearted, hopelessly dim sidekick. Dunno why but it really speaks to me.\u201d -Murdoc<\/li>\n<li><strong>Thursday, March 5 \u2013 Sweet Charity<\/strong><br \/>\u201cStory about a girl who keeps trusting the wrong people and paying for it. It\u2019s New York, 1969 \u2014 beautiful, loud, and lonely when your luck runs out. But even in the dark, there\u2019s hope.\u201d -Russel<\/li>\n<li><strong>Thursday, March 19 \u2013 Britannia Hospital<\/strong><br \/>\u201cA messed-up, dystopian comedy set in a 1980s NHS hospital, featuring the Queen Mother and a freaky super-brain in a jar \u2014 a very British apocalypse.\u201d \u2013 Noodle<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-alamo-drafthouse-s-gorillaz-guest-selects-program-has-a-familiar-catch\">Alamo Drafthouse\u2019s Gorillaz Guest Selects Program Has A Familiar Catch<\/h2>\n<p>With a handful of films as varied as the members at hand, the Gorillaz\/Alamo collab promises to be an exciting ride. So if you want to see Gorillaz Presents <em>The Mountain, The Moon Cave and The Sad God<\/em> on the big screen, don\u2019t delay! This Guest Selects series starts on February 26th, with a new movie paired with that short going up on Thursdays \u2013 through March 19th. But much like <em>Raccoon City Cinema<\/em>, all showings (except the album premiere) are free \u2013 with the purchase a food and beverage voucher. <\/p>\n<p>As for Gorillaz\u2019 new album, \u201c<em>The Mountain<\/em> releases February 27th wherever music is streamed, downloaded, or blasted from a passing car.\u201d That\u2019s the sort of thing you need to quote directly from the press release, as I couldn\u2019t possibly beat that punchline.
