What was the first movie you ever saw in theaters?

[honeybee503]

Do you remember?

Mine was Pocahontas.

Gremlins. My grandmother took me, it was awesome!

[The Foozzler]

I think it was Beatlejuice. I remember being terrified.

[muppetinma]

My parents took me to see A Chorus Line on Broadway when I was 4. Poor decision making on their part.

[ktstorm]

The first one I remember was The Lion King while I was at summer camp. I don't remember my parents ever taking us to the movies, so I guess that was the first one. I would have been 8, I think?

[rainbowchip]

Cinderella. And we were broke so my mom brought our own soda and candy and in the middle of the movie you heard her crack the can open.

Bambi. I was apparently very distraught when Bambi's dad is telling him to get up to escape the fire. I was yelling in the theater, "he can't get up! He's hurt!"

Providing an alternate perspective started at a very young age, apparently.

Oh yes! It was Bambi for me too. I distinctly remember "man is in the forest." Scarred me for life.

[ruby412]

The Land Before Time. Loved it!

[Regina Philange]

I have no idea. Hocus pocus?

[nannerl]

Sleeping Beauty. I remember standing behind the theatre chair in front of me gripping the back when Malificent turned into the dragon. I think I was four...

[browndog]

I only remember the first one I went to alone a friend. It was Look Who's Talking. The opening credits feature a sperm meeting an egg. I had no idea what it was, neither did my friend.

For some reason Pocahontas songs constantly pop into my head. Like at least once a week. I haven't seen the movie since I was a child.

It does have some great songs! My H and I were watching it with Natalie one day and didn't like the Savages song. We rewrote our version called Sandwiches.

Sandwiches, sandwiches
Don't forget the mustard
Sandwiches, sandwiches
I'll take mine on wheat
Sandwiches, sandwiches
Provolone or cheddar?
Sandwiches, sandwiches
I'd like extra meat

I think it's a much better alternative. Lol.

[thedahliharpa]

The Muppet movie in the drive in when I was an infant.

That. Is. Amazing.

I will now sing that whenever I make a sandwich.

I sing Just Around the River Bend all the time.

Stupid tree-hugging Walt Disney. 

[tuck]

I want to say The Jungle Book. I remember my dad left the theater to go to the bathroom right before the movie ended, so I was freaking out when the lights came back up and people started leaving and I was alone.

Sometimes when I see some horrible environmental disaster, I saw "man is in the forest" in my head. The brainwashing totally worked on me, lol.

[bean47]

I don't remember the title, something about bears. My dad took me and I think I cried. I was pretty young and I also have a terrible memory.

[creamsiclechica]

Home Alone!!!!

I also remember for my 13th birthday, I had my party at the movies to see Ace Ventura. Fuck yes. Bumblebee tuna, bitches.

[laurensmomma]

I have no idea. The first one I remember is Jurassic Park. Way to go, dad.

[skiesthelimit]

I think it was Biodome as a teenager. I don't remember seeing anything before that, in a theater.

[abbypug19]

I'm not sure but I remember seeing Snow White, An American Tail, and the Care Bears movie when I was very young.
