First movie you ever saw at the cinema
I was just sitting at work, waiting for something to do, and I caught myself daydreaming about going to the movies when I get done tonight. Popcorn. Mountain Dew. Snickers Poppables. MMMMMMM.
Anyways, got me thinking: What's the first movie you ever went to see at the theater? For me, it was Star Wars V: The Empire Strikes Back, in Oshkosh, WI, when I was almost 4 years old. Great memory. Went with my dad - the first of many movie trips we've made together over the years. How about you guys?

Re: First movie you ever saw at the cinema
a re-issue of Peter Pan when I was 4...my Uncle Mike took me. We're talking 1967...i remember being awestruck at the size of the theater...biggest room of all-time! and what's this? a counter that serves nothing but candy, soda and popcorn?? Holy crap!
And then the movie started and I thought I was watching actual magic. One of my favorite memories.

Re: First movie you ever saw at the cinema
My Dad took me to see Jaws when it came out. I was 6. First movie I went to. The shrieking and jumping in the audience was something I never forgot. Only when Schindler's List came out in '93 did I see reactions from an audience that were as pronounced. At Schindler's List I saw a couple of fights break out between older folks and kids who were laughing. Spielberg, if anything, is a master exploiter of the audience.
