Movie Chat returns this weekend with a double-bill of “Empire Strikes Back” and “Return of the Jedi.”<\/p>\n
Join us Sunday on our IRC server at 2 pm EST when we pop our copies of ESB into the DVD player. After the usual confusion, at around 2 pm EST we’ll all press play on our individual players and proceed to cheer and jeer (or discuss and argue, if you like!) the finer points of the film.<\/p>\n
We plan to take a break midway through the film, to allow for stretching of fingers and backs. Barliman will be on hand to serve drinks and snacks (and to enforce the house rules). <\/p>\n
“Return of the Jedi” will follow at 5:30 p.m.<\/p>\n
