When you stop to consider the sheer number of screens involved in a movie-watching Google Hangout, it’s kind of a mindblower. Once we were all acclimated and quenched, it was time to start the show. Making the theme drinks on camera first also gave us time to get the typical coronavirus catch-up over with, so it wouldn’t come out during the movie. The five of us, in three separate households, prepped our butterbeers together, apart, making it feel more like an event, even though it turns out there’s no correct online recipe for this fictitious beverage. Another friend suggested draping our bodies in our respective Hogwarts house finery. One friend suggested that we make butterbeer. We could dress it up a little (not literally). Not only would Harry Potter be goofy, super basic, pandemic-resistant fun, it would give us an opportunity to make our indoor outing more of an occasion. Because the general mood around the world is understandably dire, my wife and I wanted our group chat movie to be innocuous brain candy that would remind us all of the Before Time.
