The Movie Man Posted March 22, 2013 Author Share Posted March 22, 2013 The Avengers last year has to be one of my favorites. The long line waiting to see it in Imax, the previews including The Dark Knight Rises teaser, and the audiences enthusiasm seeing the movie. I've only seen 2 or 3 movies get applause at this theater. A few others include Independence Day. This was my first real anticipated movie as a kid.Wow. Independence Day. I made a special day of that as a teen. Went to eat at Windows on the World in NYC on the 110 th Floor and then went to see it at the Ziegfield in NYC. One of the Best Old Theaters at the Time.

ketchuplover Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 Nothing like waiting for your movie to emerge from a RedBox machine 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ezen Baklattan Posted April 7, 2013 Share Posted April 7, 2013 I live near this old movie palace that now shows art house fare like The Artist, Moonrise Kingdom, Holy Motors, and so on. The cool thing is that someone would play music on the organ before the movie would start. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darth Homer Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 (edited) ROTS was the last movie I got really excited waiting to see. Especially as I'd just watched the previous 5 films and George Lucas was in the cinema Now days it's hard to get that excited before a movie. Especially with the fucking first look bullshit they play before movies in most places now. It used to be you could talk to the people with you or just chill while waiting for the previews to start. Now they assault you with advertising for the latest Disney show or whatever at full volume the moment you walk in.

The Movie Man Posted April 29, 2013 Author Share Posted April 29, 2013 Thinking back to how much I enjoyed Thor and Avengers last year, I am dying for Iron Man and the Summer Blockbuster season to start! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Alpha Posted April 29, 2013 Share Posted April 29, 2013 If there's one thing I love, it's being in a movie theater. Especially when you're watching one of those big action movies, where the theater rumbles as you watch the explosions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spike Posted May 2, 2013 Share Posted May 2, 2013 The wait before Avengers and the Hobbit started, was just another feeling. Loved it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phillip Posted May 3, 2013 Share Posted May 3, 2013 The wait before watching DH2 and The Hobbit for the first time was absolutely incredible, The hobbit more from a personal stance of loving the LOTR and being terrified and excited to see how it was, and DH2 for the crowd, the buzz in that audience was something i've never seen before Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Travod Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 I've never hyped up a movie more than TGWTDT, but the event was tarnished because there were sooooooooooooooooo manyyyyyyyyyyy trailerssssssssssss. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Stingray Posted May 4, 2013 Share Posted May 4, 2013 I got a question y'all: How many trailers do they usually show before movies in the US? Here in Sweden its 3 or 4 max. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Movie Man Posted May 4, 2013 Author Share Posted May 4, 2013 (edited) I got a question y'all: How many trailers do they usually show before movies in the US? Here in Sweden its 3 or 4 max. Could be 3 to about 6....and do the trailers come with the film already attached from the studios????? Just noticed this in the crowd reports.....which confirms the higher numbers Iron Man 3 4:15 PM About 95% full (The most crowded I've seen in well, a year) Trailers:Fast 6: Pretty good reaction-about the 500th time I've seen this trailer. Man of Steel: Good reaciton. White House Down: Decent reaction-laughs at the end. Lone Ranger: Had the best reaction of the bunch. Looks really good.Wolverine 2: The most silent reaction fo the films, some talking though. Thor 2: Tons of "Yes! I want that!" Looks good.
