Tuscaloosa’s Transportation Museum Releases The Lineup For It’s Fall Outdoor Movie Series

Each week, a different film will be shown on the museum’s 50-foot inflatable screen on the former site of the historic Queen City pool.

The 501st Legion, a group founded to unite “Star Wars” enthusiasts and volunteer in their communities, will have Darth Vader present at this week’s showing of “Spaceballs” for photos to help raise money in support of Children’s of Alabama. Regular admission is $5 per group, but Friday’s showing of “Spaceballs” will charge $6 per group and will accept additional donations. Groups may consist of a maximum of seven people.
