Get ready to prepare for the coming of Gozer! Movie Chat this weekend features none other than “Ghostbusters.” Join us Saturday on our IRC server at 5:30 pm EST when we pop our copies of the movie into the DVD player and press start. We plan to take a break midway through the film, to allow for stretching of fingers. Barliman will be on hand to serve drinks and snacks (and to enforce the house rules). Don’t forget to buy some Twinkies!
Also, please check out our Summer Schedule, as voted on by the fine folks in Barliman’s chat room. Upcoming featured films include: ‘Galaxy Quest,’ ‘Shaun Of The Dead,’ ‘Say Anything,’ and ‘Princess Bride.’ [About IRC chat]
