I went to see the Meg in 4d… so the chairs moved and water sprayed over you at certain points and the chairs rumbled and honestly it was so much fun, best cinema experience for sure.

Slight cheat as it's 3, but the LOTR film trilogy.

Jurassic Park. Absolute magic in the cinema when we see the dinosaurs for the first time.

The original Star Wars in 1977. In Dolby stereo sound. It was magnificent.

Schindlers List. The red dress was so impactful on the big screen

Some Like It Hot at the BFI one Valentine's Day - the place was packed and everybody roared laughing and applauded at the end.

Jaws at the IMAX. We'd have had a job getting a bigger boat 😀

Peterloo. I went to see it on the spur of the moment on my own on a rainy day off from work and was blown away, both by the story and the cinematography. I'm surprised it wasn't more successful as it's such an important piece of history and a well made film.

If I was alive back then, that would have been my answer. I guess it would have to be Lord of the Rings: The Two Towers.

Ghostbusters, the original one in 1980something.

Also Jurassic Park as the first ever sighting of 'realistic' CGI dinosaurs.

I also enjoyed Avatar on the big screen as it did justice to the the very 3D/jungle planet environment in a way that TV wouldn't.

For the film - Titanic in 3D

For the atmosphere - Back to the Future screening on 21st October 2015.

Dr. Zhivago. It was visually stunning.

Yes, that moment coming over the hill in Jurassic Park was wow. I aldo enjoyed Bohemian Rhapsody so much - the cinema had the music really loud that after a point you can't not get swept away.

The Sixth Sense. I didn’t know the ‘twist’ ending and it absolutely blew my mind. The Matrix did the same.

Same. I was 11.

I remember also being blown away by Raiders of the Lost Ark.

This would be my other choice. I think watching Endgame was my favourite cinema experience, my ds and I went to a midnight screening.
