What film provided your greatest movie theater experience?

[WhoShotCha]

I'm sure this thread has been done before, but what movie provided your goat theater experience?

For me it has to be The Dark Knight

The anticipation, the hype, that opening scene. Never has a movie been as talked-up as TDK and then exceed expectations. Knowing Ledger was dead and then watching Joker regulate for 2.5 hours.. Man, shyt was just electric. Everyone in the theater was in awe when it was over

Jurassic Park and Avatar are right there though. Spielberg and Cameron movies feel like roller coasters

 

[Swiggy]

Yeah, The Dark Knight in my adult years. Being a Bat-Stan, shyt was just mad important. Batman Begins had me on hype, but the hype was just bigger than the movie - which I don't fault the movie AT ALL.

I had a gathering of 20 peeps at the theater for that Friday, but went to see the midnight showing the night before by myself

As a kid, nothing beat Terminator 2. shyt was just the dopest flick an 11 year old could see at that time.

lmao. soon as I saw the title I thought "TDK".

I'll throw in Raimi's, Spiderman (2002) as well.

I made this thread recently and it flopped

 

[Kill Dat Noize]

as a kid i don't remember being hyped for anything more than i was for batman returns.

having said that, as a kid i was such a wide eyed optimist that i loved pretty much anything. there were no "bad" theater experiences. i had fun during SUPER MARIO BROS! i had fun during KAZAAM! lmao

more recently though I will say this is the end. just cause I remember me and the whole theater being in stitches. that was a great time.

Last Harry Potter, grabbed some midnight tickets on premeire night. I'm not the biggest fan of going that late, but it was really fun.

Paranormal activity. Stuff has come close but that's still the most fun I've ever had in a movie theater

• TDK
• Inception
• Avengers
• The Raid 2 (me and my nikkas was in there partying the whole time)
• Tyler Perry's Temptation (me and my girl went with some drinks during the morning/early afternoon. Pure fukkery)

As a youngin:


Adult:
Midnight showing of SW: Ep 3
Borat
Snakes on a Plane

 

[Ain't That Something]

I'm going left field and say "300". At the time that was the illest thing I had seen in a movie theater and even though it doesn't hold up quite as well after a few watches but the initial impact of that movie had me geeked.

 

[Poetical Poltergeist]

T2 by far. The hype as a kid

6th sense though, when it ended the entire theater was quiet as fukk, no one knew what the fukk happened.

Transformers (1986 movie) - was my very first time at the cinema.
Transformers 1 - I was blown away at it, also as mentioned in another thread we all clapped after the 1st action scene.
Avatar - my 1st 3d film

Dark Knight easy .

I was working at Frys Electronics at the time and the vendors from Intel gave us a deal that if we can sit through 20 minutes of product training, we get free passes for the 8PM showing No one else in my city saw it before midnight. Plus they had a raffle where you could've won shyt from a new flat screen TV to a graphics card . They also fed us pizza , soda and ice cream (took two large Domino's boxes home cause they had too much ) and of course, it was a private showing .

Walking out of the theater , seeing everyone else still waiting in line for another hour for the midnight showing like


Rush Hour 2 is a distant second followed by Transformers.
