Eagle vs Shark

This Friday, Movie Night In The Back Yard presents Eagle vs Shark (2007). Don't miss the last show of the season! Loren Horsley stars as a fast food worker with a crush on self-centered dork Jarrod (Flight of the Conchords' Jemaine Clement). This laugh-out-loud comedy from New Zealand has received may comparisons to Napoleon Dynamite, but the love story and quirky characters really make this its own thing. There are also lots of cool little stop motion animations between scenes. We'll start this a little earlier now that the sun is setting around 8:15.

The King of Kong

This Thursday, Movie Night In The Back Yard presents The King of Kong: A Fistful of Quarters (2007). Don't miss seeing "the Michael Jordon of video games," Billy Mitchell, as he gets called out of retirement to take on some guy from Seattle. There is a lot of surprisingly suspenseful Donkey Kong footage here, but there is also plenty of time to check out Billy Mitchell's mullet. This is another great documentary from the past couple of years.
