And it was the oddest quest I've ever done. It felt so forced and even my Ryder looked pissed off and bored at the end.
Citadel was done with three games worth of getting to know your companions. This type of bonding thing felt way too soon and out of step with the game.
Also all the fetch quests Urgh...
Just me?

I like Movie Night. The OT left it way too long for us to bond with our crew. ME2 told you that Shep was friends with some of the crew but it didn't really feel like it until ME3 for me.

Wait till you get to a NG+ and those scenes all trigger automatically even if you don't fetch the required items.

If you don't feel like you've become besties with your team - just don't do this quest. And I'm actually serious this time, this content is not meant for you.

But that was done by Citadell, not by the vanilla game. Movie night is Citadell light. It lacks in most aspects Citadell provided. There was no real buildup and ultimately boiled down to a series of cutscenes with you being unable to take the driver's seat.

Going shooting with Garrus, dancing with Jack, drinking with James etc. Movie Night was on par with those scenes.

The crew is talking about it, pitching, preparing etc. Outside events make Liam postpone and others jump in to make it happen, to make him interested again. No build-up? It's like people just checked yt, vomit buzz-words but not actually played the game.

WHAT!? I thought it was funny. I cried of laughter! how dare you call it "forced"!! I'm an overzealous fanboy and I'm typing this wearing my asari costume and sitting on my Garrus bodypillow -- also I can't wait to attend next year's comic con so I can meet the super talented people who made this masterpiece!!! Maybe BioWare just didn't make the scene for you!

Yeah, this game IMHO never earned its "Apartment Couch Photo Moment" (from the Citadel DLC). Which is basically what it is. A drawn out version of that. Plus lots travelling to fetch things (which they overdid for sure. At LEAST two too many stops).
If you don't do ALL loyalty missions and basically play as if your crew is family now, I don't think I'd recommend doing the quest. And I say that despite laughing my ass off at the "overacting turian" bit - male Ryder opting for 'casual' here is magnificent.
As for bugs? Yeah, Peebee occupied the same space as Ryder at the end there, completely overlapping. Not the 'asari melding' I signed up for.

I liked the idea behind it, although I thought the execution could have been better. I ended up not having it finished until the post-ending, which seemed like the right time for it, so that part worked for me. It would have felt oddly timed if I'd done it earlier.
I wasn't bothered by the fact that it was a little awkward because the crew felt like a bunch of friendly coworkers to me, and "awkward" has been a defining feature of a lot of my real life forced work social activities. But that's one of those things that some people will hate because it's either not their type of humour or because they liked the characters significantly more or significantly less than I did. I think that's one flaw of it - it's the basically the same regardless of how your relationships with the crew are, so it's just not that interesting since by nature it has to be generic.

Not having "earned" a freaking movie night is one of the last things on the list that I'd complain about. If you pair up different characters and drive in the nomad long enough, they have all kinds of conversations together. Not to mention more conversations on the ship itself. One of the things I liked compared to the Original. The achilles heal is that Bioware does more telling than showing. The crews logs that you can read about them doing stuff around the ship is nice. WOuld have been cool to see brawls break out, dinner scenes to show the bonding... All that aside.. The Single best thing that I think they could have done for movie night is go full meta. A few ideas: Made it with cut scenes from the Original Trilogy, perhaps a reenactment of the Reapers destroying the Protheans (and one of the crew making a joke how they look like the Kett, or could have brought back Martin Sheen to do an action comedy once again as the Illusive man..............
p.s.
Unless I missed it, really annoyed I bought all that popcorn but no one could be bothered eating it.

I enjoyed it but I think it would have been really awesome with different outcomes, depending on previous choices (if you buy some things or not, if some of your companions get along or not...). I remember this party in Final Fantasy VIII when your dialogue with your LI had very different tones depending on the casting of the musicians... (it could be very romantic or end in a fight if the music was a total mess). Citadel had something like that too.

I guess that glitch is tied to the acting out the movie scene in the previous cut. Yes, it's fun, but I would have enjoyed it a whole lot more if you had been able to interact with your companions during movie night. It runs mainly on autopilot and is over within 4 to 5 minutes.

Probably should have saved this for a bookend dlc for Andromeda (Which I probably will do once everything is finally release.) Would have felt a little more earned at that point.
I think a poker game that was a little more subdued would have been better. Would have been nice too to actually be included in the game since apparently everyone else already plays without Ryder.

As far as bonding goes, I found the Liam soccer game or the Cora flower scene more endearing than movie night. Also the Drak bar fight. Very much like these little scenes in ME3 that made for a nice surprise in your first playthrough.

The best part of movie night was the actual movie they were watching.
My Ryder would have been happy watching that alone in her cabin...with tea and space-rat.
