too bad they wont be charging 80s theater prices lol.
 
That's so sweet, me and my girlfriend love this film. It'll be awesome to see this in the theater.

I am glad they didn't do the 3D treatment to it. It probably would have been pretty crappy

It's something they've already been doing to some extent, like how Star Wars was shown in theatres again for its 20th anniversary. Interestingly enough, this is sort of how movie studios originally envisioned things working. Back in the early days of movies, the idea of being able to own one for you own personal use was pretty much unheard of unless you were rich enough to own your own projection equipment, so the idea was that movies would be brought back every so often.

This is why the "Disney Vault" exists. When Walt Disney was alive, he decided he'd like to bring his movies back every few years so a new generation of kids could enjoy them. That carried over to home video releases despite being unnecessary.

But really, the big thing now is re-releasing things in 3-D, which is why I'm surprised this isn't the case here. They did it with Toy Story 1 and 2 last year, and they're planning to do it with Titanic and both Star Wars trilogies. There has also been talk of 3-D versions of The Matrix, Lord of the Rings, Terminator 2, and 300, with probably many, many others to come should this prove successful.

That'll come later, after the cow on this showing has run out of milk.

That Jaws 3D was about as 3D as Nintendo's new money-grab, err 3DS.
 
Well they are also basing it off the day when Marty actually travels in time in the movie which is really neat and its kind of a give back to the fans and not just a money grab as the showings are very very limited and you get free swag for going.
 
How amazing! I saw Michael J. Fox get his star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame the day before the DVD trilogy was released. It was so cool, they had Robert Zemeckis and Bob Gale there, too.

I'd love it if that was done. Just put out old movies for a week, like Raiders Of The Lost Ark, etc. People over 30 would flock to theaters just for the nostalgia value. To relive the theater experience for classic movies.
