So, here in Australia we have very run-of-the-mill cinemas for the larger part. They release new movies, not really a lot else. However, we have some smaller, older cinemas around...they have less comfortable seating, they run the new movies a bit late. The good thing is, they're very cheap - and the way they tend to look, is how cinemas used to look, everything there is a bit like walking into the past. So we go to see a movie if we're low on cash, or tuesdays they have it even cheaper. Occasionally, they actually show old films. Now I know int he states you guys have cinemas that do this on the regular - but here it's pretty hard to find. So once a month, they've been showing "retro" films. I couldn't be bothered with "Rocky horror" and "Blues Bros" which were the last two...not that I have anything against them, but I've just not considered them something I'd run along to catch on the big screen. So...they showed "Back to the Future". $5. Now, I grew up in the 80's - but I was 4 years old when this came out. I saw both sequels at the cinema but never got a chance at the first one. So technically I've been waiting 27 years to see this...I had to... I hadn't seen this film in some time, this could be the first time I've really enjoyed it on all levels. I was also rocking a pretty good stone off a firecracker from about half an hour in. It was much funnier than I remembered, mainly in terms of the dialogue. I couldn't remember the "Darth Vader from Vulcan" scene AT ALL. I remembered the basic plot, but it had actually been long enough so a lot of the film seemed pretty fresh to me. Now, here's the "moment". People were taking their kids to this movie. Little kids. They liked it. This one kid, maybe 5 years old was right into it, really having a good time and laughing out loud...hell, the whole audience of all ages dug this film. But yeah, I stopped and thought "Shit...this kid was like the age I would have been when this came out". I found that really cool, and I now know that I'll be checking out this movie with my kid too. Some timeless shit right there. Anyways, that's my story.
