In my new official role as assistant organizer, I am hosting the city portion of RiffTrax night. The Roosevelt ICON offers cocktails/snacks in its upstairs bar, so if there is interest in hanging out after the movie, we can. Not that South Barrington won't be fun, too . . . http://img2.meetupstatic.com/48961800108910343402/img/smileys/laughing.gif

Whichever location you choose, you're guaranteed a great time. These RiffTrax screenings are a hoot.

﻿﻿We'll meet in the theater at 6:45p. Screening starts promptly at 7p. You will be asked to choose a seat when you purchase a ticket, but don't worry; there usually isn't a problem moving to sit with the rest of the group.

From the Rifftrax website:

The stars of Mystery Science Theater 3000 are coming to movie theaters nationwide to take on the cheesy 1962 fantasy epic and original Jack the Giant Killer. Michael J. Nelson, Kevin Murphy and Bill Corbett of RiffTrax invite you to join them on Wednesday, August 17th for hilarious riffing on a not-so-classic movie bursting with Vikings, giant rubber monsters and a leprechaun in a jar! This one night event will be your only chance to see the guys fire their wisecracking commentary at the original Jack the Giant Killer on the big screen. Audiences will be treated to a brand new short from the guys, as well as two original video shorts from Rich “Lowtax” Kyanka of Something Awful.
