No good movies left, so we're just rewatching old ones. Again.

I actually really love this current trend of releasing older movies to theaters. There are some that I've always felt I missed out on. I recently got to see Alien in a theater and the experience is so much more vibrant it's hard to describe

Getting to see The Matrix in theatres for a re-release is an experience I'm so grateful for. I wish there was a dedicated revival theatre in my area.

a lot of theaters show old movies on random weekdays

Oh yeah, I go to the Fathom events and whatnot, but I'd still like the feel of a dedicated revival theatre. There was an old Laemmle theatre in my hometown that had that vibe. Maybe I'm just chasing the nostalgia...
