In Honor of Memorial Day, Let’s Watch the Trailer for 5-25-77 and Wonder if It’ll Ever Come out
 |
“5-25-77” is not just the day that modern geekdom was, if not born, than at least given its biggest shot in the arm since Shatner met Nimoy, with the release of Star Wars. It’s also the name of a movie, filmed in the middle of last decade, paying tribute to that day and its significance to all of us.
Some have seen it, or bits of it, at festivals. But will we ever see the whole thing? IMDB lists 2015 as an expected release date, which could be just as optimistic as other, prior predictions. In the meantime, let’s watch the trailer again, remember Memorial Days past, and talk amongst ourselves. Do you want to see this movie released?
