That is to see Goldfinger at the cinema. It was released before I was born.
Not earth shattering news but I'm so pumped to see Bond, Mr Goldfinger, Odd Job, mish Moneypenny and Pussy Galore on the big screen.
I have more Monday evening Bond Classics at the cinema to come. 
They have a gold theme apart from The Spy Who Loved Me !

Glad you enjoyed it EC
I did thanks, one of my favourite Bonds and that goes for the soundtrack too.
Not a clue . . . anyhoo - I love that classics are shown again at cinemas.
I'm looking forward to a full week of Harry Potter re-runs around Crimbo
Would love to see Resident Evil Retribution 3D again

Yep you can't beat seeing something at the cinema Sainty 
So true Roger - it makes it an event - the tickets, the queue, the nachos, the extortionate cost . . .
plus I don't have 3D and I watched Resident Evil in both 2 &3D ... and I have to say in this genre with this movie it made 'all' the difference
Major films I have seen at the cinema years after they were made include:
Gone with the Wind (the burning of Atlanta is quite something when seen on the big screen)
Spartacus
2001: A Space Odyssey (unless you've seen it on the big screen you haven't really seen it, almost pointless watching it on television)
Andrei Rublev. I saw this in London when it had been released in the UK in 1973 but it was made in 1966. A Russian film about the 15th century Russian icongrapher directed by Andrei Tarkovsky and almost 3 and a half hours long.
It's considerably better than that might seem at first sight and is a strong contender for the greatest Russian film made since Sergei Eistenstein made films such as Battleship Potemkin and Alexander Nevsky.
Although it was not the first night showing, at the end of the film, we spontaneously started clapping our hands as this was an extraordinarily good film.

I've never seen a 3D film... I think it might blow my tiny mind !
Whilst watching AVATAR 3D I actually tried to swat an insect flying past, lol

I agree about Gone with the Wind .....which is probably my favourite film

Yes, 2001 is excellent on the big screen. 
If we are talking Russian films/documentaries then I would say A Man With a Movie Camera (âDziga Vertov) was a particular favourite of mine. I saw it with a live band who had written a new score for it.
I also have it on pre-order as it's being released on a 3 blu-ray set soon.
Tonight I am sat waiting for THE MAN WITH THE GOLDEN GUN to start.

Blimey Donks! I've found your link and wonder how I've never seen this before! Thanks muchly. 
One of my best buddies used to have to work in the USSR as was and this reminds me so much of her, admittedly limited experience of working there. Put it this way, fruit and vegs were impossible to find to eat. Unless it was cabbage. And her experience of how the drunks In Moscow were often dug of snow, usually dead, following stealing antifreeze from cars are legion! 
Sad news today that Guy Hamilton the film director has died, He was 93. He directed Goldfinger, Diamonds are Forever, Live and Let Die, and The Man with the Golden Gun.
Roger Moore tweeted ""incredibly, incredibly saddened to hear the wonderful director Guy Hamilton has gone to the great cutting room in the sky. 2016 is horrid".

I think I saw him briefly in an interview not so long back and he looked quite frail then. More sad news on an already bad week with Victoria and Prince.
He directed some of my favourite Bonds amongst 18 other films, which included Funeral in Berlin to name just one.
