Sadly, Three Dollar Bill Cinema had to postpone one of their Summer Outdoor Cal Anderson Park screenings earlier this month. It was rainy on Friday, August 2nd so they called off their much anticipated screening of “Galaxy Quest”, the funny sci-fi spoof of “Star Trek” and the world of Trekkies that stars Tim Allen, Sigourney Weaver and Alan Rickman. Fortunately, they were able to reschedule the event, so it’s now gonna happen on Friday, August 23, 2013 and will wrap up this year’s four film series which has the theme of “I Need A Hero!”. The previous “wrap up film” was going to be “Conan The Destroyer” with the Arnold and Grace Jones…it’s still happening THIS Friday, August 16, 2013. Remember that the FREE screenings all start just after dusk, usually around 8:30pm to 9pm but it’s wise to get there EARLY to secure a prime viewing location. More poo:
This is a smoke-free event. Bring low-backed chairs or blankets for seating, please.
Hot popcorn, cold drinks, candy and other concessions for sale on site. Limited lawnchair rentals available. Proceeds benefit Three Dollar Bill Cinema’s efforts throughout the year to provide voices and visibility for the LGBT community through film and video.
There’s an extra benefit if you show up early for this Friday’s “Conan” screening. Three Dollar Bill will be filming for their trailer for this year’s “Seattle Lesbian & Gay Film Festival” which opens on Thursday, October 10, 2013 at the Cinerama with the Seattle premiere of the Divine documentary, “I Am Divine”. The 18th annual festival runs until October 20, 2013 and a wealth of info about the line-up will be announced next month.
Meanwhile, if you have a hankering to be a star, then prepare to get “BOLD” and you can be in this year’s trailer. Here’s the skinny on dat:
