Mine was "La Storia Infinita" (?The Neverending Story?), thanks to a cineforum organized on my little city.
I was 11-12 years old, going at cinema after church on Sunday morning (sometimes after playing Ghost & Goblins on the bar near the church :D).
Great experience!

Other movies i've seen on this cineforum: Back to Future, Navigator, and a lot of others i don't remember...

Which was your first movie?

"Earth vs The Flying Saucers" My parents had to take me out of the theater screaming my head off, scared the hell out of me. I was about six. "Sleeping Beauty" was another one that terrified me. Now Horror and Science Fiction are my favorite genre.

The first film I saw in a theater was Disney's Berneard and Bianca if I remember correctly. Iwas something like 3 or 4 years old at the time.

Disney's Old Yeller. The local theatres in my area used to participate in a summer movie program sponsored by Royal Crown Cola. Come up with 6 RC cola bottle caps and you got in to the Saturday 10:00 Am showing of 2 older movies and they gave you a ticket number and awarded door prizes. Lot of fun and best of all they had that novel new invention; air conditioning. In the area I grew up in, that alone was like manna from heaven.

Mine was "Asterix erobert Rom" (anime). But Star Wars (called episode 4 nowadays) is the only film I've ever seen more than once in cinema (watched it three times).

I have a horrible memory of my childhood (the memories aren't horrible, just the lack of them). Although I have no clear memories of it, I'm fairly sure I saw ET when it was originally released. I would have been 5 at the time.

Same here. Empire Strikes Back. Well it was either that or one of the first Star Trek movies. Not sure which one was first.

My first cinema movie was "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom".
My very first from memory was at a drive in, the movie was "Blood Beach". Though I've been told my first was "The Black Hole".

The first movie I ever saw that I can vividly remember was Star Wars: Return of the Jedi (thanks to Dad for being a fan). We saw it at one of the last Drive-In movie screen in my area back in 1983. :)
I remember being so afraid of Darth Vader and those black eyes! LOL :D

The Wizard of Oz is one of the first movies I can recall, though I remember many terrific saturday afternoons at the local theather near home, watching tons of westerns, peplums and pirate movies.

They just don't make films like that nowadays :(

Hmm, I think it must've been one of those Disney movies released somewhere between 1990 and 1995.

Not quite sure, but probably Disney's Jungle Book or Aristocats. Or one of the filmings of an Astrid Lindgren book. (you can tell I'm swedish, right? ;)) Can't remember now, it's been way too long time ago. But I do remember the first 'grown-up' picture that I was allowed to watch on an evening with my parents. 'Tuppen' (http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0083238/maindetails) ('The Rooster' in english) I was about 8 at the time, and a year later I saw my first english speaking movie (we only got dubbed versions of the Disney's). E.T. (http://us.imdb.com/title/tt0083866/) And another year later the Star Wars triology...

First movie I saw was E.T. I remember crying all the way home because I didn't want E.T. to go home. I must have been 4 years old.

The first movie I went to by myself was Batman (the first one). I was 12. :)

funny topic, I didn't remember but it must be some disney feature or something like that. Back then even suburbs like mine had they own cinema but they are all gone now. Since then I didn't watch much animated movies, the only one I remember atm are Thron and Fist of the north star

Fist of the North Star, (http://www.manga.com/northstar/img/gallery/v00-04.jpg) now that brings back the memories. Great!
I thought BraveStarr (http://www.filmationarchives.com/cpp/bravestarrmimiposter.jpg) was better though :)

I say the same. It was either Aristocats or Jungle Book. The Jungle Book is as old as I am (I was born in 1967) but it has probably been on the movies many times since then.
