SimGurus are sharing new info about the latest Stuff Pack – The Sims 4 Movie Hangout!
.@Ceres_Meiriona Happy to hear; the number of detailed pattern variants for the objects & clothes in this pack is nuts! Very versatile.

.@Howdy_Simmer This pack is for friends/family gathering in a relaxing setting to enjoy a movie, it’s not for a cinema or home theater feel.

.@nickperri_ Definitely. Sims can even declare their favorite movie genre! Check out the blog if you haven’t yet: https://t.co/rZjFHthFYq

.@Howdy_Simmer Sims consider them as different activities. For example, you could have a club that watches movies and avoids watching TV.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 6, 2016
.@Howdy_Simmer Each movie is about an hour and a half in Sim time. It’s a unique interaction to watch each one so they’ll stick around.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 6, 2016
.@Sathos_voice Each movie is about an hour and a half in Sim time. That adds up to approximately 20 minutes of new video in real time 🙂

@thesimplynando There’s a new club rule to watch movies if that’s what you’re asking about.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 6, 2016
@Howdy_Simmer That’s the idea; they’re great fun to watch along together with your Sims!
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 6, 2016
@SimInterstellar Yup, multiple new styled rooms. Some really lovely arrangements thanks to the wide variety in the pack.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 6, 2016
.@thesimplynando Yes, there are ways to watch together, or join in watching a movie in progress. Even a new romantic cuddle while watching.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 6, 2016
@Sim_Cookie The movies don’t directly change their emotion, but Sims do have varying degrees of enjoyment when watching a flick.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 6, 2016
.@Weealbet Movies can be watched on TVs, and TV can be watched on the new screens. New gameplay is around Sim behavior during/after movies.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 6, 2016
@MooniGaming @thesimplynando No sofa woohoo; turn the movie off and take it to the bedroom 😉
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 6, 2016
@catloverplayer @thesimplynando Yes, or until the movie ends.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 6, 2016
@PattonKieran Kids don’t make popcorn; but they can eat the popcorn that adults make in the new popcorn popper.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 7, 2016
@daniel_willyan You can invite friends to hang out & then watch a movie with them; it didn’t feel like something needing a dedicated event.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 7, 2016
.@ZerbuTabek The ten movies don’t loop or repeat themselves, each tells its own complete story from start to finish 🙂
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 7, 2016
@PattonKieran They sure can.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 7, 2016
.@purpleclauu The reactions they have relate to what’s happening on screen, i.e., monster pops out; Sims jump in fright. Not emotion based.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 7, 2016
.@leo3487 Did someone say telesplosion? I love that in Get Together! …and yes, it works & looks fantastic on the new Movie Stuff screens.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 7, 2016
@Chelle_Jo44 Yup, each one is two minutes in real time.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 7, 2016
@RacodyZ No, it’s done via an interaction in-game. There are a number of new socials between Sims that they can use after watching a movie.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 7, 2016
@RacodyZ This pack is for friends/family to gather in a relaxing setting and enjoy a movie. Comfy boho clothing and accent piece furniture.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 7, 2016
@RacodyZ We specifically stayed away from cinema as that’s a totally different experience, and something larger than a stuff pack.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 7, 2016
@RacodyZ Things like discussing a scene, asking about the plot, chatting about actors or directors, spreading spoilers, etc. Variety.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 7, 2016
.@RacodyZ There are four popcorn flavors… buttered, caramel, cheddar, and kettle.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 7, 2016
.@Ceres_Meiriona In Movie Hangout Stuff, shushing happens when a Sim who is enjoying a movie gets distracted by other Sims who aren't.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 8, 2016
.@Ceres_Meiriona Examples… if another Sim starts talking, or laughs during a serious moment, a Sim enjoying the movie may "SHH!" them.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 8, 2016
.@Howdy_Simmer @leegravesg15 Watching TV and watching a movie are two separate club rules that can be selected independently of each other.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 8, 2016
@QueenavaZ No, making popcorn isn't a club activity.
— Graham Nardone (@SimGuruGraham) January 9, 2016
