Apologies, apologies, it looks as though I was working off of an old schedule posted on About.com. Tonight's feature is indeed Ghostbusters. Maybe the Comcast folks realized the same thing you all did -- that The Kite Runner isn't family friendly. Correction made.

I am going to be sorely disappointed if I show up expecting to sing along to the Ghostbuster's theme song, and instead have to watch the Kite Runner. Critically acclaimed, best-selling book be damned...I want to see some Dan Akroyd!

I think the SOTG movie at Strathmore tonight is Ghostbusters. Perhaps they couldn't get permission for Kite Runner?
