Davie is the founder of Popcorn Club.
Having grown up in between Canada and Israel, having spent ten years of his life backpacking through Europe, Asia and Australia and fluent in English, French and Hebrew, Davie’s very much a child of the world. He studied philosophy in Canada and screenwriting at UCLA, he’s owned businesses in art sales, customer service and travel. Davie inspires confidence in everyone he meets, that’s what he does, that’s why he started Popcorn Club. He’d love to meet you and tell you all about it.
Davie’s most popular clubs are Debate Clubs, Watch & Talks and his famous Texas Hold’em Poker Clubs. You’re guaranteed to laugh, learn and be inspired after two hours with Davie.
Have you heard of Love, Death & Robots? It's amazing! Each episode is a short film on its own. One of them is written by Ken Liu (a great writer, and the man who translated 3 Body Problem) and it's Davie's favourite. Why? How has this man created his own genre? How does he use traditional Chinese mythology and mix it with elements of modernism and cyber punk? Why is this particular episode one that can bring together nations and generations? How has it struck a chord with so many people by both offending them and making them think? Let's watch it together and let's have an unforgettable conversation!_x000D_

In this Watch & Talk club, we'll watch an episode of a show which, in its own way, encompasses everything Popcorn Club is all about! The coming together of cultures, the clashing and eventual pairing of the traditional and the modern and all the beauty and ugliness that comes with it! Pretty deep, huh? It's also just an awesome and entertaining watch. And, of course, let's have a smart, fun and deep discussion about our mutual cinematic journey!_x000D_

你听说过《爱,死亡和机器人》吗?真的是超级棒!每集都是一部独立的短片。其中有一集是Ken Liu写的,他是个大牛作家,也是把《三体》翻译成英文的人。这一集可是Davie的最爱。为什么呢?Ken Liu是怎么创出自己独有的风格的?他是怎么把传统中国神话和现代主义、赛博朋克元素融合在一起的?为什么这一集能跨越国家和世代,把大家紧紧连在一起?它又是怎么既触动了很多人,又让他们反思,有些人甚至觉得被冒犯了?咱们一起看吧,保证让你印象深刻,聊到忘不了!_x000D_
