A random memory of my mom and I seeing Runaway Bride (1999) in the theater prompted this.
When I was a teenager, my mom and I went to Subway and then we decided to see a movie. After we'd bought the tickets, the ticket taker said we couldn't bring the food in, so we waited till they weren't looking and ran in with the food anyway.
I saw that movie in theaters more than once.
What memorable times have you had in the movie theaters? What movies were your favorite? Have you ever seen a movie multiple times in the theater?

Re: Movies You've Seen In the Theater
That sounds like a nice memory.
Afraid I don't have anything to contribute. I've been trying to think of a memorable theatre experience, but can't really recall any. I've never been a big theatre goer anyway, so that may be why.
The last one I saw was Wonder Woman a few years ago and didn't really care too much for it.

I didn't think Wonder Woman was that great, either. I think Joker was the last one I saw in theaters, though it took some figuring to find that out. Crazy how time flies.

I think the last movie I saw in theaters was Jurassic World. Didn't care for the story... but I liked the super cool dino battles!
I wish my life was a non-stop Hollywood movie show
a fantasy world of celluloid villains and heroes
Because celluloid heroes never feel any pain
and celluloid heroes never really die...

Re: Movies You've Seen In the Theater
Me and the mister like to wax nostalgic over "the good old days" when we could hardly wait for some movie coming out. Or looking for obscure films at little hole in the wall theaters.
When we could spend an entire day going to Seattle to catch some film we had been dying to see.
Oh yes, I sure remember going to see Picnic at Hanging Rock 1975 and another big event for us was The Road Warrior man can't believe that was 1981. We were completely blown away with The Road Warrior with all of it's extremely well done over the top action.
Memories, pressed between the pages of my mind
Memories, sweetened through the ages just like wine
Quiet thoughts come floating down and settle softly to the ground
Like golden autumn leaves around my feet
I touched them and they burst apart with sweet memories
Sweet memories

That gif really made me smile! I needed that right now because something happened today that was upsetting to me.Mrs. Danvers wrote: ↑Sat Jan 09, 2021 10:20 amOh yes, I sure remember going to see Picnic at Hanging Rock 1975
Omg Picnic at Hanging Rock! That movie was so weird and mysterious! Love me some 70s horror! I think I watched that on IFC way back before it was a paid channel.

We are living in very unsettling times and I have noticed that when any other thing goes wrong it seems to be amplified. I mean to say anything that is upsetting seems to be twice as upsetting it being piled on to everything else.
We are being piled on like an old compost heap.
I watched Picnic at Hanging Rock again not too long ago and it held up very well I thought. And for my taste the soundtrack is epic.
I'm simply mad about the pan pipes.
