Personally, The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

I knew it was going to be quite the experience before I went for the first time‑ but it was so much fun I had to keep going back bringing friends each time.

It's still a fun tradition to do though we haven't done it since last year, we're probably going to try and go again in a few weeks.

‑ I had seen it many times before going to see it in theaters for the first time.

Original Star Wars as a kid. The whole summer. 13 times. Have probably watched it more times since on streaming.

Nostalgia is a drug.

We all paid for George Lucas's second swimming pool that summer...

Shit, you got 1 more time than I did!

Back when they didn't kick you out of the theater between showings; it was the only thing I asked my mom for money for that summer, as I recall.

Do you also feel like Lucas' recut is a blaspheme?

I just look away during the Jabba scenes and the Han/Greedo shootout.
