Starry night
May the Fourth be with you! On this most Star Wars of days, it is time to revisit “The Last Jedi” on the big screen and see how it holds up, now that the hype of its opening has faded. Grab some of the low-crunch foods from Syndicated’s bar, spend some time with Luke Skywalker and the droids, and then let your feelings flow onto the Internet.
7 pm at Syndicated [40 Bogart St. between Thames and Grattan streets in Williamsburg, (718) 386–3399, www.syndi

Barge in
Wander down to the water in Red Hook, step aboard the 104-year-old floating barge that houses the Waterfront Museum, and take a gander at some ships that didn’t last as long! Painter Jim St. Clair will be on hand to show off “Derelicts,” his exhibit of oil paintings of drowned ships. And after the show, drop by Sunny’s Bar just across the way.
2–5 pm at the Waterfront Museum (290 Conover St. at the waterfront in Red Hook, www.water

Shy guy

Parent rap
Kids are exhausting, so if you have any of your own, stick ’em with the babysitter for the night and commiserate with the hosts of “Standup Comedy From Parents Who Want to Lie Down.” Comedians and kid-wranglers Ophira Eisenberg, Eugene Mirman (pictured), Janelle James, and more will share the magical, maddening joy of having spawned.
