Movies You Can Only Watch on the Big Screen

Lawrence of Arabia

2001 A Space Odyssey

Out of Africa

Gone with the Wind

Interstellar

Koyaanisqatsi

R/3 I saw it on HBO and couldn't even make it through 30 minutes Redford and Streep have zero chemistry. I really don't think seeing it on a big screen would do anything but enhance the background but who wants to see a film about Karen Blixen?

Los Angeles TimesSheila Benson

Unfortunately, and through no fault of Meryl Streep, there doesn't seem to be enough electricity generated out there in Africa to power a love story 2 1/2 hours long.

Umbrellas of Cherbourg.

Dawson's....never mind.

Alien

Back in 2013, I had the opportunity of watching "Gravity" on theater.

Amazing experience. Love that film.

The Strangers (not the remake or sequels) was terrifying on the big screen.

Everything Everywhere All At Once

I haven't been inside a movie theatre in years. I have a vision issue that makes it impossible for me to sit in front of a big screen for more than 20 minutes at a time.

When EEAAO first came out, I had at least 5 friends rave to me how great it was and they couldn't wait to go back and see it again. I advised I would have to wait until it was available to stream.

Then when it was available to stream, about 5 others I knew streamed it and kept telling me how overrated it was, hard to follow, and boring. I finally watched on my computer screen and had a lot of trouble getting thru it.

So I'd have to say that it's the possibly the greatest example of anything recent.

I'm curious if anyone here can validate this claim.

The Human Centipede

R13 it's overlong and very repetitive Trimming it by 45 minutes would be both easy and helpful to the film.The film is all over the place as I guess the title would suggest. Saw it once in a theater and have no desire to ever watch it again

Barry Lyndon

Aliens. Loved it in the theater, couldn't understand what it was I'd loved when I watched it on TV.

It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World

How the West Was Won

Around the World in 80 Days

Jaws

A low brow choice: Call Me By Your Name. I want to feel like I'm there in Italy.

A Passage to India

Train to Busan (2016).

I wondered afterwards how many extras were injured while making it.

Sex and the City 2

“The Outsiders”

I have a friend with access to a small movie theater. Last night we watched "Out of Africa." It was glorious on the big screen.

There are movie that look their best on a big screen but are Barry Lyndon, Out of Africa, Around the World in 80 Days, It's a Mad, Mad, Mad, Mad World worth watching under any circumstances?
