Hello everyone!!! Welcome to a brand new Pusher post!! Long time no see!!

Welcome to a PUSHER MEDIA CLUB POST....... again we're going to be able to go over some movies and uhhh other things that serve as an inspiration for Bluff City and talk about them as a group! This time Ali (me, hi, hellooo,) gave out the assignments and we're going to be watching and talking about Tampopo, Fargo and Better Call Saul.

This week we'll be talking about Tampopo! Join Ali, Keith, Dre and Jack as we discuss so so so so much food, the right way to break the 4th wall, good fights and better scams, team building and building a city with interesting characters!! I have so much affection for this movie and I'm so glad I finally got a chance to talk about it with my friends in relation to creating Bluff City!
