What was the first movie you remember seeing in the theater?

[missmaddie]

Rainbow Bright or Prancer.

I remember renting The Wizard of Oz.

Star Wars. I was 9.

Snow White. I'm guessing it was some sort of 50th anniversary deal because I was not around in 1938

[sparrowsong]

Empire Strikes Back

Bambi. I think I was 3 or 4. My mom said we had to leave halfway through because I just kept crying.

The Little Mermaid.

This. The two twin boys who lived down the street and had a crush on me asked me and my mom to go see it with them and their mom. They had a little sister a few months after and named her after one of Ariel's sisters.

I was 5.

The Little Mermaid. My mom and I had to leave because of scary Ursula.

[wildfloweragain]

The fox and the hound. Drive in with my mom. I cried all the way home.

...sent from my Jedi Mind.

[Jalapeñomel]

Back to the Future at a drive-in.

[simplyinpenguin]

Who Framed Roger Rabbit? I was 4 and giddy to see my first movie in the theater. Wound up getting scared then passing out. I love the movie to this day, however.

Same! It was early 80s.

[mrsukyankee]

1973 - Charlotte's web.

[bluetopaz]

Oliver & Company. I went with a friend and her mom. Going to movies was not a thing for our family, so other than when I saw 101 Dalmatians with my aunt, I don't think I saw another movie in a theater until high school.

[CurlyQ284]

I remember seeing Cinderella and Snow White too.

[tictac]

The Little Mermaid. I was in kindergarten, and I remember at first, I got nervous when the theater went dark (because, hello, DARK!!!!! Lol), and then pretty much immediately forgot about it once the movie started.

[joenali]

Some of you are so young! Or Im just old!

[Booze Raccoon]

Snow White, 1975

[BaliHai]

The Little Mermaid. I was 4.

[lilafowler]

Maybe ET? I vaguely remember seeing Jaws at a drive-in but that's fuzzy (lol) so that could have been first?

[jinkies]

Muppets Take Manhattan. I was 6.

ET. I was terrified and we had to leave the theater.

I refused to watch it again until maybe last year. Yeah, it's not as scary as I remembered. Lol

Same! Except it was the neighbor kid we went with who made us leave We watched it with ds a year or so ago and he didn't think it was scary but he did cry when he thought et was dead.
