I've seen movies in the theaters that made an impact on me and my life (Lion King, Star Wars, Lord of the Rings, etc) but Interstellar is the only movie that I actually think I walked out the theater in awe after.
Shin Godzilla. That scene is burned into my memory. Everybody who's seen it knows what I'm talking about.
Did not see it in the theater but wish I did! That scene you describe is frightening and awe inspiring at the same time. Couldn't concentrate on the rest of the movie because of it.
Also the Dark Knight and the nightmarish Joker, Ledger was talented!!!
And "Your Name." Such a nice movie with glorious art style.
Fight Club. Skilled and original filmmaking on all fronts. It was subversive and blistering. To me at the time it felt like my generations A Clockwork Orange or Taxi Driver or even The Graduate. I came out with an adrenaline rush, actually felt a little high. Nothing since has done that.
Gravity. That movie might not be as good on rewatches (especially at home on a small TV), but that first viewing in the theater was WOW for me.
The Matrix
Fellowship of the Ring
Blade Runner
Interstellar
Lol. I remember that.Battle Beyond the Stars. The ship had boobs, man. Boobs. Oh and I was 9 years old.
Came out the same year as Empire. About a tenth of the budget (and talent). Music by James Horner? Directed by Jimmy T Murakami who did When the Wind Blows (6 years later)? Surprised.
What scene are you talking about? I watched it a few nights ago and cant figure out what you two are talking about.
There Will Be Blood.
Left the theater just stunned by what I had seen.
