Combining streamed entertainment with social interaction, this activity involves consuming alcoholic beverages according to pre-determined rules triggered by events within films or series viewed on the streaming platform. For instance, a rule might involve taking a drink every time a specific character appears on screen or a recurring phrase is uttered. This blends the passive experience of watching a movie with a more interactive, social element.
This form of entertainment offers a lighthearted way to engage with friends and family while enjoying films and television programs. It can enhance the viewing experience by adding a layer of playful competition and shared amusement. Historically, similar games have existed around televised events and home movie viewings, demonstrating a longstanding human desire to connect socially through shared entertainment. The digital streaming era has simply provided a new and readily accessible platform for this type of activity.
