The Alamo Drafthouse theater chain will show all three original Star Wars films at theaters around the world in August, the Austin-based company announced Tuesday.
Most theaters, which boast comfy seating and wait staff who serve audience members on-theme meals, will screen the films back-to-back-to-back as a triple feature. Tickets go on sale, naturally, on May 4th, better known as national Star Wars day. (May the 4th be with you.)
