Shake A Leg.

It's hard to remember a more anticipated movie release than this month's seventh Star Wars installment. Rightly so, there's a billion bucks on the line. But after the whole Jar Jar fiasco, a lot of folks are wondering if it can possibly live up to the hype.

Not to worry, because according to The Hollywood Reporter, George Lucas has seen an early screening and he quote-unquote really liked it.

Whew, that's something of a relief. Meaning, we can go back to worrying about more pressing matters, y'know, like what to do tonight. — Cory Graves

Shakespeare in the Bar Presents: The Tragedy of King Richard III at The Wild Detectives
Shakespeare in the Bar is quickly becoming one of Dallas' most sought-after tickets — as it should, really. The basic premise is pretty rad, after all: You go to a bar, you watch a Shakespeare play performed live and, the whole time, you drink and be merry. Currently, Shakespeare in the Bar is on its fifth production. After four performances of comedies, the troupe has now moved onto its first tragedy, Richard III. It's a bold choice, considering how comedies tend to be crowd pleasers. Read more about the show here. — Angela Jones

AGFA Secret Screening at Alamo Drafthouse (Free)
