Yeah but Poltergeist, ST2, ET, Blade Runner and The Thing in one month! Let that sink in. That is absolutely insane.Lots of crappy movies too.
I wish I had been old enough (11 at the time) to see all those in the cinema that month. I only saw ET and ST2. ET left me an absolute blubbering mess at the end and ST2 freaked me out in a good way. My aunt had told me how great Blade Runner was. That didn’t help. My sister got to see Poltergeist, 2 years older. I just wanted to grow up quicker at that point. The Thing wasn’t even on my radar until probably 3-4 years later but became a legendary copy off a rental video tape that got passed around amongst school friends.
It wasn’t until Drew McWeeney pointed out they all came out within a month that I realised how insane and incredibly rare it was to witness such greatness in such a short period of time.
