Movie Review:
This movie takes place several months before "Star Wars - Episode 1" is suppose to be released. Fanboys is about five dedicated "Star Wars" fans in their twenties that have had a plan since grade school, that if George Lucas would ever release another "Star Wars" film they would break into the Skywalker Ranch (George Lucas's estate) and steal / preview the rough cut of the movie. This flick takes you on a hilarious adventure of these friends being geeky and making fun of anything "Star Trek". This movie will make you ask yourself.......Am I a "Star Wars" geek? - and if I am I would have loved to have done the same thing. Watching this flick will make you laugh, you may cry, but only because you will be laughing too hard. I will warn you, this is stupid humor, but is there any other kind of humor? Rent the DVD and enjoy.

What to Watch For: All the Star Wars nerds, and nerdy comments - get ready to laugh.
