Hey everyone,
An invitation has been extended to us for a FREE screening of the new movie Real Steel, hitting theatres soon.

The screening will take place the week of September 20, 2011 at Edwards Grand Palace (59 & Weslayan) which is located about 10 minutes from campus. The screening will be completely FREE other than concessions obviously.

This would count as a club event, which could score us points (I'll talk about this at the meeting... big push this year).  And it actually seems like a cool movie.

Synopsis:
A gritty, white-knuckle, action ride set in the near-future, where the sport of boxing has gone hi-tech, 'Real Steel' stars Hugh Jackman as Charlie Kenton, a washed-up fighter who lost his chance at a title when 2000-pound, 8-foot-tall steel robots took over the ring. Now nothing but a small-time promoter, Charlie earns just enough money piecing together low-end bots from scrap metal to get from one underground boxing venue to the next. When Charlie hits rock bottom, he reluctantly teams up with his estranged son Max (Dakota Goyo) to build and train a championship contender. As the stakes in the brutal, no-holds-barred arena are raised, Charlie and Max, against all odds, get one last shot at a comeback.

I just need to start getting a head count to submit to the sponsors.
