Say you could memory wipe one movie and watch it for the first time again. What would it be?
I’m going with Star Wars. Jaws is a close second. |

I can do that now anytime I want. I watch a movie and enjoy it (or not) and it is never stored in memory. I can enjoy it the same a couple of years later. Sad for those who cannot.
The Matrix - I can name Neo and not any other character name. John Wick - I can remember his name only because of the title. Red Dawn - I can not name a single character. |

Fight Club. The twist blew my mind the first time around, I still catch little things on rewatches but the first time was something else.

View Quote That was one of the very few movies that completely caught me by surprise with a plot twist. Normally I'm good at figuring out plots ahead of time (and often have to explain what's going on to everyone else... ), but the elevator scene with Leonardo Decaprio was one of the most surprising moments in movie history for me. Right when I think I know what's going on... |

three of them, 2001 a Space Odessy in70-millimetre Cinerama , Midway the original version, in a theater set up for the Sensurround, and Casablanca on the big screen, fresh print, correct light bulb in the projector. Honorable mention to Dr. Zhivago, and Lawrence of Arabia in Super Panavision 70, and a fresh print of the Godfather, again with the proper projector and light.

Star Wars has to be number one.
Second choice, maybe Blade Runner. |

The Hangover. It's not my favorite movie, but the first time you see it, it's so satisfying.

Or Tropic Thunder. Good Lord I could laugh like that, again. |
