    Saw Lost Highway with two friends - only one couple was in the theater with us. Halfway through, we all started discussing what the fuck was going on in the movie we were so confused.

      You’re giving me fond memories of midnight movies when I was in college at the student theater. Ten or fifteen in the theater playing Mystery Science Theater 3000 with every movie.

      I remember when we watched The Shining, people gave a standing ovation any time the screen showed the black and white text showing the day of the week.

      When they showed Stand By Me, we yelled, “BEAM ME UP! BEAM ME UP!” when they were running from the train.

      When they showed Stargate, two guys stood up and just started having a loud conversation in the aisle. And no one told them to shut up.
