Hello Folks!<\/p>\n
This week in #moviechat we will be getting together to watch George Lucas’ seminal blockbuster, ‘Star Wars’ (1977).<\/p>\n
Join us this weekend Saturday May 6 on our IRC server a little before 5:30 pm EST when we pop our copies of the film into the DVD player. After the usual confusion, at around 5.30pm 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
