    This year’s Summer Movie Series at the Intrepid are reaching the halfway point, with tonight screening the fourth of the series of seven movies. Tonight’s movie is The Hunt for Red October, so you can spread out on the deck of the Intrepid and watch Sean Connery and a young Alec Baldwin, just a few yards from a real submarine (authentic!)

    As always, doors open a 7:30pm, but you’ll probably want to get there early to get a spot in the line. And the weather’s looking fine for tonight, so you shouldn’t have to worry about it being cancelled.

    Next Thursday is Spaceballs, followed by Captain Phillips, leading up to the finale of Top Gun.

    The details, for the last time: doors open at 7:30pm, get there early to make sure you get a spot, bring chairs/​blankets.

    The series has had a good run, with big turnouts for all the screenings, and amazing luck with the weather, with tomorrow night looking ready to keep that going.

    Summer is ending too quickly.

    Every movie so far has seen lines stretching far around the neighboring pier, so if you want to get a spot make sure you arrive well in advance of the 7:30pm opening.

    To quickly recap, the series kicked off with National Treasure back in June, following up with Jaws, then last week continued with Star Trek during SpaceFest, with two more still to go after tonight’s screening.

    The Endeavour arrived at the Intrepid in July last year, but was forced to close at the end of October due to damage caused by Hurricane Sandy. It’s fantastic to see such a significant part of history back open to the public again.
