Thursday Nov 11, 2021
Star Wars, which can arguably be called one of the greatest cinematic series of our time, has recently become a somewhat divisive subject among fans. Even more unbelievable, our very own Nicole had not seen the majority of the movies. This is the first episode of a three part series in which Sara and Sal try to "make it right." (By forcing Nicole to watch!!!)
Join us for a super-sized and downright lively Movie Chat as the team discusses the first three chapters of the Star Wars Saga: The Phantom Menace, Attack of the Clones, and Revenge of the Sith.
We have so many things Star Wars in our collection, from movies to books to much more. You can check it all out here: http://mcpac.mcpl.lib.ny.us:2084/search/?searchtype=Y&searcharg=star+wars&sortdropdown=-&SORT=D&extended=0&SUBMIT=Search&searchlimits=&searchorigarg=aa
