Star Wars at the Portage Theater
Revenge of the Sith
The last of the prequels, Revenge of the Sith. It was not an easy thing to get the line together. Our theatre of choice for TPM and AotC, McClurg Court, was not closed. So we had to move to AMC River East. Where we were not allowed to camp out. Did this stop us? No, we just camped out in front of the old McClurg, and moved to AMC the night before the movie. It was a crazy time. Here are the pics:

Chicago Force Backyard Theatre: TPM
On Friday, July 23, at 7:00 P.M., Chicago Force’s Backyard Drive-In Theater presented The Phantom Menace. We enjoyed some good fun as we harkened back to the movie whose line-up formed our initial group. Showtime was approximately 9:00 P.M. Thanks to Dave Gray who opened his McKinley Park home.
Episode II: Attack of the Clones
The Episode II: Attack of the Clones is here! Chicago Force lined up outside McClurg Court to see the movie at midnight. Here is some pics of the whole craziness!
