The Big Three (Movies) You Must See on the Big Screen

Each generation has a film they all remember seeing on the big screen. Whether it was Elizabeth Taylor lavishly costumed and doe-eyed in "Cleopatra," Dustin Hoffman serenely floating in his swimming pool in "The Graduate," or Tom Hanks running back and forth across the country in "Forrest Gump," we all fondly remember those cinematic moments that captured our hearts and imaginations, while we nervously or emotionally munched on buttery popcorn in a dark movie theater.

In honor of our current TV package promotion, the film aficionados at Bel Furniture have compiled a short list of movies that absolutely must be seen on the big screen. While the HD and 3D HDTVs we are giving away are not the size of traditional movie theater screens, they are definitely big enough to give you an at-home movie theater experience you can enjoy with the whole family.

The Big Three you Must See:

The first big screen must see film on our list is "Jurassic Park," by Stephen Spielberg. A small TV just wouldn't do the impressive 13,000 pound animatronic T. rex justice as he snarls and snaps his way after Dr. Grant and the other paleontologist enthusiasts (some not by choice).

The second box office smash on our list is "Independence Day,"starring Will Smith and Jeff Goldblum. It's our opinion that this film lived up to its massive 90s hype by delivering breathtaking shots of the alien mother ships, strategically positioned above key cities all over planet earth. And, who could forget Will Smith's close encounter with the pilot of the alien fighter craft he shoots down over the desert?

Our third and final film for this installment is one that is a little more contemporary: The Lord of the Rings Trilogy. Each film was a visual feast even more dazzling than the one before. Peter Jackson brought each stone, each castle, each mystic city, and each character from the books, to life. Watching this film on the big screen is almost like dreaming.
