My take

Not just the movie, but the movie + a Q&A with Mimi Gibson, the voice of Lucky. It was fun to see the movie on the big screen and with the big sound. It was also absolutely delightful to hear from ~80 year old Mimi about her experience working for Disney on the movie when she was 10 (she said she was 12 years old when it came out). Not only was it fun to see Harvey and Bennett's reaction (because they seemed to think they'd never seen it), but also hear all of the kids in the theater reacting as well. I really loved it.
