While no box-office figures have been released for the tribute screenings, according to the report Purple Rain had the highest percentage of sold-out screenings of any movie playing in those original 87 theaters. And AMC isn't the only theater chain that's bringing the movie back to the big screen, either: last week Carmike Cinemas showed the film in 80 different locations, and smaller theaters like Cinefamily in Los Angeles have spun up their own special screenings as well. Granted, you could just buy it off iTunes and watch at home, but if you're going to sit back and sing along with "Purple Rain" and "Let's Go Crazy," it'll be better in a crowd full of other fans. Trust us.
