Quoted: What was the last movie you saw in a theater, & really enjoyed? Casino Royal, as I recall that would have been late 60's. No, I do not recall enjoying it, possibly that is why it was the last movie I watched at the theatre. |

I gave up on theaters a while ago. Between crowds, lines, crummy seats (I’m 6’4”), overpriced tickets and hit-or-miss sound and projection it usually isn’t worth it for me.
I’ll take my DircTV/Tivo, DVD/LD, DD/DTS 5.1 and 35” TV. For what it costs the GF and I to go to single film I can buy the DVD and enjoy it as many times as we want (with all the extras). The last film I saw in theater was Episode I and it *was* worth it. I might drag myself out for X2 and the Matrix Reloaded. Best theater experience ever was the original Star Wars on it’s first release. Words can't quite describe what an absolute phenomenon that film was. You’d have to have participated to understand it. I can remember the first time I saw it like it was yesterday. To me it seemed like the film lasted about 5 minutes. I never moved once after the "A long time ago..." came up. I was in the exact same position in my seat when it ended as when it started. I have no memory of blinking during the entire film. I ended up seeing it in the same theater 24 times. A very close second would be Aliens. A perfect print shown in a newly constructed THX certified theater that was setup perfectly and cranked up. The THX test trailer (The audience is listening…) had people screaming, hollering and applauding like a sporting event, it was THAT good. Holy shit, what a ride that screening was! I ended up going back once more to see what I missed and a third time just to watch the audience react to the film. That was as good as watching the movie itself. |

I only go to about 3 or 4 movies a year. Most of that stuff is a massive waste of film. The last movie I saw was Tears of the Sun. It was OK, but not one of my favorites by a long shot. The last one I saw that I thought was actually worth the investment of time & money was The Two Towers (only 7 months to The Return of The King!).
The Last of the Mohicans was excellent ("One of these days you and I are going to have a serious disagreement!") |

Saving Private Ryan. The wife and I couldn't wait to see it, so we went to the theatre, if you can believe that.
I hate movie theatres and haven't been to one since SPR. |

The last really good one? Lord of the Rings, the Two Towers. (Searchfortruth, it's the second in the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Next one is Return of the King.)
Going to se X2 tonight. I expect to be entertained and wowed by the special effects, but I'm not expecting to be bowled out of my seat by it. I'm waiting for Matrix: Reloaded to do that. |

It's rare that I go to the theater, I usually wait for the DVD.
The exceptions have been, We Were Soldiers, Black Hawk Down and Antyhing Star Wars, Star Trek or comic book related. The best movie I have seen in the theater in many, many years is LOTR, Two Towers. |

In order:
1)Saving Private Ryan 2)The Patriot 3)Blackhawk Down 4)We Were Soldiers (notice a theme here?) My wife and I rarely go to movies, but last year, with these four, set some kind of record, as we had not been to a theater in [i]years.[/i] If they keep making these kind, we'll go--as long as Mike Farrell, Susan Sarandon, [i]et al[/i] are NOT in them. |

I've been to the opening day of every Star Wars movie since A New Hope, I take the day off of work. Of Course, I was 5 when the first one came out, but I still saw it 7 times in the theater and my uncle got me a bootleg tape (might have been Beta, that was a long time ago)! BTW, Attack of the Clones was WAY better than Phantom Menace. |

That was a few months ago. Before that one it was probably Home Alone. I did enjoy XMen 1.5, LOTR Fellowship, Blackhawk Down, We Were Soldiers, and a few others...but I enjoy them at home on DVD![:D] BigDozer66 |

I still watch it every time it somes on the Scifi channel (which is pretty goofy considering I own all of the movies on tape or DVD) and its still great. You work with a youth group? Thats cool, I used to know an ex Special Forces guy that was part of a church youth group. Nice guy, did a lot of good to those kids. |
