Even though you can't go to the movies with your friends right now, you can go with RZA.

The hip-hop legend is participating in a web "screening" of "Shaolin vs. Wu Tang," the martial arts movie that gave the band its name. RZA will do a live commentary and answer questions in the nationwide program, which will benefit shuttered theaters, including Minneapolis' Trylon.

It's a bargain, too. Tickets are $10 per household for the one-time event at 8:15 p.m., Friday, May 8. For more information, visit trylon.org.
