    Still beats having to get someone older than me to buy booze or needing a booster seat in a chair to sit at the grown-up table. Now, if I'm not mistaken, you've got an appointment with Scott Tenorman.

    Batman 89 was probably the first movie I saw in theaters, but I’m not 100% sure on that.

    goodness that was a long time ago but it doesn't seem that long - weird. That was right about the time my son was conceived at a motel about a mile from the mall theater where I saw it.
    The mall is gone but the motel remains.
    Side note Weird Al Yankovich released his movie "UHF" at the same time Batman came out, thus it was DOA at the box office :weep: but remains somewhat of a cult classic.

    The first movie I saw at a drive in was Blazing Saddles.

    My dad took me when I was 5.

    One of the first movies I remember was Raiders of the lost ark. Yes, I am a member of the generation that was mentally scarred by melting nazi heads as a child. When the movie is telling you not to look, perhaps it is time to cover your kid's eyes. The next movie I remember was gfhostbusters, or as we know it "How to swear properly by Doctor Venkman."

    I think mine was The Little Mermaid as well.

    Definitely wasn't scarred by melting Nazi heads, from what I remember.

    Wait, people are born at different times, sometimes decades apart, and therefore people sometimes have vastly different ages? I thought everyone was born at exactly the same time. This completely shatters my worldview.

    Anyway, the first theater movie for me was Bambi, which looks to have been the 1988 re-release, and I was 4 at the time.

    I think my first theater movie was one of the Godzilla series - Destroy All Monsters? - but in reality it was probably some Disney thing.

    I've been trying to remember what could have been the first movie I saw in a theater, it might have been Superman. I would have been around five years old, and I was taken to see it by a neighbor across the street. She had her grandson visiting, I don't remember his name, but she also took the next door's neighbors grandson, his name is Danny. Both of them visited pretty much every summer, and we spent a lot of time in our pool each summer. I last saw Danny in 97-98, the next door neighbor, his grandfather died around that time. He came down with his dad and stepmom for the funeral. His aunt was a former drug addict and pretty messed up even then. And the family was squabbling over who gets what. We spent a lot of time hanging out just so he could get away from that. Danny also had a half brother, but he only came down once.

    He was a good a person, I'd like to see him again some time. Well damn, that was more of a trip down memory lane than I wanted to remember. Shit, I'm a bit depressed now.

    For me it was the re-release of Disney's The Jungle Book in 1982-3. After that the next movie I'm sure I saw in the theater was Star Trek IV. There may have been others I just don't remember.

    The first time I remember seeing movies in a theater was for a double feature with a wildlife documentary about cougars and another one about bigfoot (which scared the hell out of 4-year old me).

    The first movie I remember seeing on my own at a theater was a matinee-showing of Those Daring Young Men in Their Jaunty Jalopies that was part of a kindergarten friend's birthday party.

    I wonder if it's the same one I saw as a wee lad? There was a Bigfoot documentary and The Legend of Boggy Creek out at about the same time.

    I didn't search well enough the first time I tried. I think this this is it, because it would fit the time frame.

    In fact, it's on the Tube of You.

    Whenever I hear of AARP I always think of old people playing the original dungeons and dragons.
