And to not let the tangents win:
Maybe not the last movies I've watched, but the last two I've watched at a theater.
The Crow (1994)
Attended a 30th anniversary screening with my girlfriend this Summer. She hadn't seen it up until that point and I was like "Sure, I'll give it another go". There's still a lot of homemade charm to it, great atmosphere considering the budget and the chemistry between Brandon Lee and Ernie Hudson was legitimately splendid. Let's also not forget about the iconic soundtrack. I did think it was a bit too cartoonish for its own good though - especially considering the heavy-handed romantic beats it also wanted to push. And the flashback-narrative seemed rushed. It was hard to fully develop a feeling for who Eric Draven was before he turned into the Crow.
Blade Runner (1982)
Attended a Summer open air retro-screening with my girlfriend. What can I say? It's Blade Runner. Still one of my favorite Sci-Fi movies. The sound system at the place we saw it at really pushed it to another level. We were able to hear details that I may not have been aware of before. Wonderful experience.
