Ok, what is the first film you remember seeing in a movie theater?

Mine was Top Gun. My dad made me go see it 4 times with him. I'm sure I saw movies younger than this, but this seems to just be called out as the first one I really remember.

Update - Mine changes to ET. Realized it when someone mentioned it.

The first one that I was taken to was Raiders of the Lost Ark. I really don't remember it, but I know my sisters took me to it.

I remember others when I was super young, but not titles or anything. Yep, I'm young, but 24 isn't THAT young.

BTW, I was sad there was no Battlecat too!

Don't know if it was my first movie or not but I can remember seeing Star Wars at the theater when it was originally released.

Hmm...one of the following but I couldn't tell you which:

Bambi
Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs
2001: A Space Odyssey


It would have been at a smaller theater where they showed 2nd-run films and such.

And, yes, those old Disney films used to be shown regularly in the theaters.

The first I remember? Beethoven.

First actual? Re-release of some Disney classic. Snow White I think.
