Blair Witch as well, seeing a 70mm version 2001 on a proper big screen was absolutely amazing and the weirdest was the first time I watched Blade Runner, it was in the cinema on a ferry from Rosslare to Cherbourg during a force 9 gale. The cinema was right up in the bow so that was an experience
Raising the always fun question: What are your most memorable theater-going experiences?
Mine also include The Matrix, Blair Witch, and being way too stoned in Belgium when Fellowship of the Ring was sold out so we sat in the back row for Mulholland Drive instead.

It was hands-down one of the most memorable theater-going experiences I can remember, a collective 30-minute butt-clench/armrest-grab for the final climb. And we knew he lived! Wild.

Sorry, yes didn’t mean to be so dismissive, but there isn’t much evidence as yet of post fledging attachment. I was on ferry from Rosslare to Bilbao in late August this year and last year and there was almost a constant stream of juvenile large gulls flying south with almost no adults evident.

There's no funding to reopen the Waterford-Wexford/Rosslare. The All-Island Rail Review recommended reopening this. It's only been closed since 2010 and is being maintained. Would have been huge for regional development.

As soon as the brexit vote result was known, the same studies behind the pre brexit presentations to EU27 kick started a few initatives.
One of the biggest was bypassing the britain to EU.
A plethora of new sea routes directly to the rest of the EU from Ireland was established.
