Was talking to my girlfriend on FaceTime when here friends kid brought out an ET doll. It reminded me that I don’t think I’ve seen that film in something like 18 or so years. What are some of the films you saw when they were released, but haven’t revisited in more than 5 years?

I just watched the original Tim Burton Batman again the other day and it had probably been 15+ years since I saw it. I was much better able to appreciate the performances and production design. It's really great and still holds up pretty well, except the end sequence with the bat jet is pretty dated. And they just got more and more campy from that point on, which is exactly what they wanted to avoid when they made it.
And yeah, I haven't seen ET in probably 15 or so years either. May watch it again someday.
Hard drinking flawed men, sitting in their office with a bottle or smoke, melancholy narration, beautiful mysterious vixen or suspicious man enters with a case, etc.
Long dead genre, replaced by law enforcement procedurals or vigilant revenge fantasies.
