For people who enjoy audience reactions, what moment from an older movie would you have loved to witness on opening night in a packed theater?

In general I like a crowd that reacts at least a little bit to the movie, but not in an exaggerated way. However, opening weekends for "lighter" movies (MCU, Star Wars, Mortal Kombat, etc) are best enjoyed when the audience clearly is in love with the source material and gets overly hype about every little detail / easter egg and what not. And yes, I know these aren't everyone's cup of tea, but honestly, what do you expect if you go on opening weekend if not rabid fans?

Most recently I've been enjoying No Way Home audience reaction videos because of how pure and emotional they are. Which got me thinking, what if we could get a glimpse into what it was like during the "No, I am your father" scene in Empire Strikes Back, or when Neo comes back to life in The Matrix.

Now, YouTube started in 2005, but I don't think it was common to see audience reaction videos until at least 2010, so let's say anything goes up until that point.
