It’s a chance to see the greatest cult movie of the past 15 years (at least) on the big screens with other fans of his Dudeness.
Oh, and mark it 8. That is, mark down 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday night, because there will be trivia and costume contests (with prizes) to test your knowledge of El Duderino and pay homage to your favorite character.

The movie runs 117 minutes and is rated R, if for no other reason than because “the f word” gets used 260 times throughout, or more than twice a minute on average.
Maybe that wouldn’t have been the case if Shakespeare had written the movie.


















A ‘new’ year
Wednesday, January 6th, 2010HAPPY NEW YEAR!!!!
Yes indeed, it is time for new year, new you and all that jazz. Avatar? So 2009. Time to move on to bigger and better things. You know, new things. Like all the new movies coming out this year. No really, they’re new. Honest. Completely freaking new. Chances are you’re not familiar with any of these intellectual properties if you grew up in the ‘80s. No chance.
March
SAY WHAT?!
Clash of the Titans
Because nothing is sacred, including Greek mythology and classic movies that shaped my childhood, up to and including my college degree.
April
Home sweet home
Nightmare on Elm Street
Halloween, The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, Friday the 13th … who didn’t see this coming. It’s hard to imagine the Freddy franchise without Robert Englund wearing the bladed glove. This better be good.
May
And they don’t’ even wear seatbelts. Outlaws, indeed.
Robin Hood
Ridley Scott directing? Russell Crowe starring? Who cares. The question is, where does Bryan Adams fit in?
June
Now more environmentally conscious
The A-Team
I pity the fool that screws this up.
The Karate Kid
Starring Jaden Smith. Oh, and he doesn’t even learn karate in the movie; he learns kung fu. Um, cashing in on a name much (see what I did there)?
Footloose
Someone must have found the were seven degrees removed from Kevin Bacon and conceived this to shorten the gap.
July
“You know you’re next, right? Eight ball, corner pocket.”
Predators
If someone other than Arnold yells “Get to the chopper!” I’m walking out.
December
And you thought the old ones were hot.
Tron: Legacy
Alright, technically this is a sequel, but I still consider it as an opportunistic capitalization on my nostalgia. Honestly, it’s been 18 years since Tron… but I have to confess I’m stoked about this one.
In the same vein, I think it fair to point out that some of this year’s biggest monetary successes will probably be sequels, including: Iron Man 2, Shrek Forever, Sex and the City 2, The Twilight Saga: Eclipse, Toy Story 3, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows: Part 1 and The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader.
