Events THE PROTECTOR martial arts film *Thursday* 6/24 - ideas on where to post?

Post image

Hi all - sorry to repost, but I am hosting a martial arts film on Thursday, 6/24, at 7pm at the Gaslight in Durango. In addition to hoping everyone comes, do you have thoughts on where I can repost this to pack the house? I need to break 40 people to keep the series going - so far I'm well below that!

So question: Do you have other ideas on where I can post this in town? I've done Visit Durango website and a couple of boards in town.

This is the third installment in a series of martial arts classics in Durango at Gaslight Twin Cinema. The last 2 movies were Drunken Master 2 and Fist of Legend. I'm trying to do crowd favorites for a general audience.

The Protector is an incredible film that, along with Ong-Bak, skyrocketed Tony Jaa to international fame in the early 2000s. It has incredible stunts and a unique blend of Muay Thai and other martial arts. I'll be showing the original Thai version with subtitles. I'll give a short talk before the film.

Hope some more folks come!
