The folks from Ain’t it Cool News are putting together a reunion screening for the best videogame-based movie in history - The Wizard. Now I’m not exactly sure what prompted this apart from a profound appreciation of this seminal movie. Luke Edwards, (the Wizard himself), Fred Savage (!) and director Todd Holland will all be in attendance for the screenings and a Q&A. But sadly, powerglove-wielding Jackey “Lucas” Vinson, will not be at this event.

It’s on at the Alamo Drafthouse in Austin, Texas on December 7th (7pm and 9:45pm screenings). I would wager good money that this will sell out fast, so if you’re in Austin or ready to make the pilgrimage, get on the Alamo’s website on Monday 5th November at noon for tickets.
