Insta-London: Secret Cinema – The Empire Strikes Back

View this post on Instagram

i've been a fan of secret cinema in london for years. and tonite, i got to be a partipicant for their fully immersive 'the empire strikes back' movie event. highly secretive, the location isn't disclosed until the last minute. and when you get there, your phone is vacuum sealed so no photos taken or leaked. my role was that of a governor of the alliance (although i wish i got creative council or alliance starfighter). i was to bring blueprints to trade for information. the experience was technically unreal and fun with holograms, video projections and hollywood set worthy pieces, like luke's landspeeder, the planet of tattooine, an actual re-creation of the cantina bar, life-sized x-wing fighter jet with pilot, hung from the rafters and flown across our heads. not to mention chewbacca, C3PO and R2D2, imperial guards, stormtroopers, jawas, darth and co walking amongst us. no expenses were spared. it was all super impressive. then after our missions, it culminated with a big-a** screening of 'empire strikes back.' what an epic way to (almost) close out my trip. like i always say, no city can outdo london or new york when it comes to social events.
