I know you think you know what you're doing tonight (being Wednesday), but the correct answer is "Going to see Castaway On The Moon" at 8:45. Showing as part of the New York Asian Film Festival, this is an incredibly well-made movie that explores themes of isolation and connection. Unlike so many Korean movies, this one actually has an ending, and it makes sense without being boringly predictable. It's also shot beautifully and edited smartly (particular when and how they change viewpoints). Oh, and to top it off, the soundtrack is pretty good too.
Please do yourself a favor and see this movie. The screencap is from seven minutes into the movie. Anything later than that would have spoiled a great moment, because the movie is full of great moments (like this).

I think movies are better when you know nothing about them other than a friend's recommendation to see them, but if you need a trailer here it is:
