Alamo Drafthouse has put together this awesome video to celebrate one of the best summers for movie lovers ever. Mad Max 2, Tron, Wrath of Khan, Poltergeist, ET, and more all came out that summer. The Drafthouse plans on replicating the release schedule.
Here is a description:
Alamo Drafthouse is recreating the "Summer of 1982" to celebrate the 30th anniversary of the greatest summer of movies... ever! From May through July, the theater will replicate 1982's earth-shaking release schedule, screening eight of the biggest genre classics on the same weekends they were released exactly 30 years ago. Alamo Drafthouse is excited to partner with Ain't It Cool News, Badass Digest, Collider, Film School Rejects, First Showing, HitFix, Movies & Slashfilm to celebrate this very special (and relentlessly fun) chapter in movie history.
I wish that I lived in Austin to attend these screenings. I would love to see some of these on the big screen again. Which film would you like to see most in theaters? Watch the video below and share your thoughts.
