I saw the 3D reissue in theaters.
I don't need any more theater views of this one.

I came from what turned out to be my last REM show and ran into town straight into the midnight screening for the first showing of this. I was a sweaty panting mess and people either side of me thought it was I was excited. I was but it was from leaving a concert and then running three miles into the city

Happier times

I like phantom. I’m excited to see it on the big screen again.

I can't believe people would assume you were excited just because you ran 3 miles to see the movie.

When this movie was announced to be released she divulged she was the president of the Australian Science Fiction Association, and I could get tickets to an advance screening 9:30 the night of release (before the midnight screening).

It took my Dad and we started the tradition of seeing the films opening night.

I clearly remember seeing the pod racing scene and of course Duel of The Fates.

MY Dad and I loved the movie and I remember as we left past the line up of people waiting for the midnight screening my Dad smiling, shaking everyones hand and saying "its good, its so good".

I of course brought this on video, and my VCR had a temperamental EJECT button so this one stayed in rotation for months on end. My wife still reminds me about how many times she has seen this film.

Good memories

At one point they're waiting to fight a droid army and one of them nervously exclaims "ouch time." At another point someone tells Jar Jar "you in big doodoo this time!" So silly and stupid. I can't hate it.
