Be among the first to see “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” when the Reuben H. Fleet Science Center presents an exclusive private screening of the movie on Thursday, Dec. 17 \u2013 a day before the official opening.
\nFirst, celebrate with a pre-screening party at the Fleet starting at 7 p.m. Meet R2-D2, hang with Stormtroopers from the 501st Legion and enjoy free drinks and food from local restaurants, distilleries and breweries. You’ll have an opportunity to discuss light speed travel and the possibility of visiting exoplanets with local scientists, and witness a demonstration on how hover transportation could work.
\nYou’ll also enjoy fun, themed science activities such as making your own lightsaber and using mind control to play a video game. Come in costume for a chance to win fabulous prizes. By 9:45 p.m. you’ll be riding in style to the film thanks to private motorcoaches that will take you right to the AMC Mission Valley IMAX theater for this special screening of “Star Wars: The Force Awakens.” The film begins at 10:30 p.m.
