First Five Movies you Ever Saw in a Theater?


I've been missing the theater experience for the last couple of years. Hopefully, eventually, we'll get back to that amazing, communal way that people gather together to see new films and share an experience. It used to be almost like church to me when I was a kid (a kid who was raised without religion or actual church).

What were the first five films you watched in a movie theater?

Mine were:

'Ernest Goes to Camp'
'Who Framed Roger Rabbit'
'Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade'
'Home Alone'
'Dick Tracy'

Saturday Night Fever (1977)
The Secret of NIMH (1982)
Purple Rain (1984)
Gremlins (1984)
Harlem Nights (1989)

I know the first one was GOLDFINGER, just before I turned 4 years old. Seeing that chick dead & painted from head to toe was not something a kid that young should have been seeing.

MARY POPPINS after that ... and OLD YELLER and SHAKIEST GUN IN THE WEST (Barbara Rhoades!) ... then 2001, which ruined me for movies.

I don't recall going to the theatre much when I was young but here's a few that I remember my parents bringing me along to watch with them!

1) The Lord of the Rings Series
2) Star Wars Series
3) X-Men
4) I Am Legend
5) War of the Worlds
