Jaws, Star Wars, Raiders, Poltergeist, Lord of the Rings Trilogy.

The Gods Must Be Crazy- the weirdest movie I saw on the big screen. I appreciate the movie for what it was but that was the worst date movie ever.

Every iconic movie starting with Star Wars (77) under R rated until early 90s and then add the R movies.

I probably saw The Right Stuff five times in the theater. I was single and just out of college with a job and money to burn. If you were seeing a movie in the next theater over, it would shake when John Glenn was reentering the atmosphere in the Right Stuff screening.
