Movie meme from

Here is imdb.com's alleged list of the Top 25 Grossing Movies in the US box office.
Bold the ones you saw in a theater.
Underline the ones you saw some other way.
Leave it alone if you have not seen it.
I'm doing this based on where I first saw the movie, because there are a number I've watched both in the theater and some other way, and not necessarily in that order.

Obviously, I like big summer movies with monsters and/or explosions. Velociraptors are a huge bonus.

Blue Crush
"Home Again, Home Again, Jiggity Jig" Summary: The prodigal surfer returns. Eden/Anne Marie
thrace_ wrote this for me, and I am so pleased. Her characterization is wonderful, just absolutely perfect. The story is like a slow, wonderful burn as Anne Marie has to try to fit back into her old life. It's a glorious story, and I'm lucky it was for me.
Stick It
"Can't Feel the Ground" Summary: Haley’s always loved falling. Haley/Tricia by
pene This is a fantastic story about two different gymnasts who realize they like girls and the way their worlds are different but the same. This is fabulous, and hot, and so very in character.
