Film screening of the 1996 Disney movie Muppet Treasure Island at the Hyperreal Film Club.
Hyperreal Film Club is screening Muppet Treasure Island on Monday, August 31, at their space on East Chicon. It's a straightforward showing of the 1996 Muppet take on Robert Louis Stevenson's classic pirate story, so if you've never seen it, it's a good chance to catch it on a big screen rather than at home.
For those who know the movie, it's the one where the Muppets tackle the whole treasure-hunting premise—complete with a map, a crew of pirates, and a good amount of the usual Muppet chaos. If you're not familiar, it's basically the story of Treasure Island told with puppets, which means the high-seas adventure comes with the kind of humor and musical numbers the Muppets are known for. It's a family-friendly one, so it works as a night out with kids or just as a nostalgic trip if you grew up with these characters.

The screening is at Hyperreal Film Club, located at 301 Chicon Street in Austin, TX 78702. It starts at 7:30 PM, which is a decent time for a Monday night—late enough to get through your workday but early enough that you're not staying up half the night. Tickets run from $9.80 to $17.19, depending on where you're sitting, so you can grab a cheaper spot if you're just coming for the movie and don't need the prime view.
