About this movie

It's 1998 and Star Wars fanboys across the globe eagerly await the release of Episode I. But for Eric, Linus, Hutch and Windows the term "fanboy" is more than just a title, it's a badge of honor. Spurred by impatience and an undying loyalty to their cause, these former high school friends reunite to undertake the road trip of their fan-tasies. Traveling West across the country to visit their Mecca - George Lucas' Skywalker Ranch - the plan is to break in, steal the film and stake their claim as the first fanboys in history to watch it. But to secure their place in the fanboy hall of fame, they'll have to contend with bizarre bikers, a crazy pimp, a deranged group of trekkies and the quiet intensity of William Shatner.

Ratings and reviews

To really appreciate all of the "in" jokes, one needs to be either a Star Wars Fan or a Star Trek fan or both. So much humour that would be missed by most. I loved this film and am so surprised by it's low ratings. The actors are good, the Cameo appearances are brilliant. the story is good. I guess I must be a fan boy and I'm 60 yrs old.

I loved this movie and i will watch it every second of every day!! :D

Hit and miss humor.
