I wonder how much both of those films have made on home video...<br /><br />The thing I've found with multiple viewings of SPvTW is that it's best seen with multiple people. I mean, I get the jokes, but to share it with someone else who hasn't seen it yet and be able to experience it again for the first time is something special.<br /><br />I'm guessing that you've seen the SPvTW mash ups on youtube. The best two are the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qpzkDnu-nTo" rel="nofollow">Last Airbender</a> and <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4RsZErYEXz8" rel="nofollow">Matrix</a>.

That goes back quite a ways, so I think this movie will have quite the cult following. I'm 41 and got/appreciated all of the jokes. I see it doing <i>very</i> well on home video. I also see being able to tell hundreds of people we meet for the rest of our lives when they say "I wish I had seen that in theaters" that I did -- and I saw it at the Cinerama. Neener bleeping neener. (Julie reference.)<br /><br />People are going to be kicking themselves for years for missing out.<br /><br />Proof of that? Top 4 films in the country this weekend at the box office have a 32% or less freshness rating on Rotten Tomatoes...suomynonahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15876229766006410953noreply@blogger.com
