Popcorn & Philly Cheese Steaks In My Future!

Just wanted to pop on and let ya know that I won't be around for most of this coming weekend, at least Friday and Saturday.  Tomorrow afternoon Jen and I are heading out to Pennsylvania, for a late night screening of Popcorn that's taking place at the Colonial Theatre in Phoenixville.  The Colonial Theatre is the home of the annual Blobfest, taking place this July, and is fittingly also the actual theater that the Blob destroys in the original 1958 film.  Never been there before and I've never seen Popcorn on the big screen, so needless to say I'm pretty excited.

That said, the main reason for the trip isn't so much about Popcorn.  Though I dig the movie and though I totally plan on falling for it even more once I see it with an audience, I likely wouldn't normally take off of work and make a four hour trek just to see that movie in a theater.  Or really, any movie.  The real reason for the trip is because we're meeting up with a couple good friends before/during/after the movie, folks like Kristy Jett, Geof Capodanno & Tom Bryce.  Truth be told, it's getting to hang out with people like them that is the real reason behind most of these trips we take.
 
Aside from catching the screening and hanging out, we're just gonna kinda wing the weekend, without any real plans or itinerary.  So at this point I'm not even sure if we're gonna be staying Saturday night or just Friday night ... guess we'll just see where the weekend takes us!

As always, you can expect a little recap of our adventure sometime next week.  Until then, enjoy your weekend.  And don't forget; Piranha 3DD hits On Demand services, as well as limited theaters, tomorrow!!
