Plenty of special screenings at the Egyptian, Arclights, New Beverly, and Aero. Met loads of actors and directors and such.

But if you want specifics.

Independence Day (1996) Opening night to a full house. Everyone was 1000% hooked from the first shot.

Independence Day 2 (2016) My first premiere at the Chinese Theatre in Hollywood. Got my picture taken on the red carpet.

Waterworld (1995) The perfect movie in the middle of my most important summer as I was growing up.

Eraser (1996) I'll never forget the audience sucking the air out of the auditorium when Kruger's reserve chute launched just in time before he hit the ground. We all leapt out of our seats.

Executive Decision (1996) For the final 45 minutes I was so on the edge of my seat I wasn't even sitting on it.

Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981) Obviously revival screenings, but the house was packed each time and it never ceases to be exciting and the ending is awe-inspiring to this day.

Temple of Doom (1984) During the mine car chase I got so excited I accidently kicked the guy sitting next to me.

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1990) When Partners in Krhyme blasted over the end credits...MIND! BLOWN!
