Want to see Pin Up! The Movie on the big screen? We’ll be at the Albuquerque Film Festival on January 10th at 2pm at Aux Dog Theater.

Oh, and it’s part of the Albuquerque Comic Con – and we’ll be there the same day Carrie Fisher will be at the festival. Girl power overload.

The whole “did she age well” kerfuffle after Carrie Fisher had the audacity to look like a 50-something woman in the new Star Wars is kind of discouraging.

But her responses? Brilliant.
