"Fanboys" At Last!!!...sneaking into a theater near you

After a long road of almost three years, "Fanboys" has finally been released in theaters! Although it did seem to skulk in under everyone's radar. I just happened to see a video interview on MovieWeb.com that spoke about the release, but that was a day after the film had come to a select number of multiplexes across the US. Just a little over 60 screens in fact. The movie is awesome (read my review on the right)!!! However the tug and pull that went on between Director Kyle Newman (read rebel leader) and The Weinstein Company (read The Evil Galactic Empire) has been pretty gratuatis.

Keeping or editing out that fact that the character of Linus (Chris Marquette) has cancer has kept the film on the shelf until now. Although it might better have been suited to premiere during the 30th Anniversary of "Star Wars", which was the original release window, it's still welcome with open arms in theaters and not straight to DVD as it was feared would happen for over a year now.

Bill, I have one thing to say.....YOU GOTTA SEE FANBOYS!!!!!!!!

Hooray! Thanks for confirming what I had so hoped for. After CIV I thought for sure this movie would either A) Never see the light of day, or, B) Be made over by studios hacks and loose all of it's fanboy charm.

The Boston market is waiting impatiently for the "Fanboys" to arrive!
