Wide screen theaters

The "I am not a nerd" thread has me all nostalgic over seeing Star Wars in its first theater run - 70mm on the extra large screen. That first shot of the battle cruiser going over gave everyone a holy-shit moment.

I also saw Jurassic Park at a big-screen theater. That was the last big-screen theater I knew of, and it was torn down not long after.

I like the variety that the multiplexes give, but some movies really do deserve the larger screen.
