I’m a sucker for the Addams Family movies. In a world stuffed with lame reboots and remakes these movies somehow shine, although the Addams’ may take offense at that idea. Watch in reverent horror as a young Christina Ricci brilliantly performs my favorite smile ever on film. (Here’s my 2nd favorite.) Show starts at the FilmBar at 9:30pm, but plays all weekend.

*Update – They got the additional screening. Get tickets soon.* DragonBall Z is also playing all weekend at the FilmBar, but holy crap every show is already completely sold out. Lucky for us, they are actively working on adding have added a screening for Friday night at 11:30.

I kept wanting to type “Ender’s Game” when I wrote that out for some reason. Anyway, video games, pizza, mutant turtles who are also ninjas and teenagers. You get the idea. Free for anyone who dresses up – preferably as Raphael, because he’s the best ninja turtle. Starts at noon, goes all night.

The big bookstore is hosting a celebration of pop culture (pretty much nerdery) and the Arizona Ghostbusters will be there to help. From 2pm to 6pm. Should be fun.
