Just a bit bored at the moment. So what was the first film you watched at cinema?

I remember going to our long-gone local cinema on Saturday mornings for a cheapo cinema club. They used to show old British Pathé black & white films (!!!). I am still traumatized to this day by "Puff the Magic Dragon".

My first proper new-release films were "A Bridge too Far" with my Dad at another long-gone local cinema and "Star Wars" with my Uncle & Auntie both in 1977.

I am old, aren't I?

The Land Before Time was the first film I can remember at a cinema and that came out when I was three years old!

Puff the magic dragon was one of the first one's I saw as well, and Superman, can't remember which one I saw first.

That was back in the day when cimena's were huge buildings with different levels of seating

Jungle Book, basically my mum always tells the story of taking me and my Cousin, we just crawled round under the seats and I came up with a half chewed Toffee stuck to me.

My younger Brothers first film was ET, the youngish guy behind had been drinking heavily and got up puked over my mum and brother, my dad gave him a slap

Bambi for me.
Same affect as Wartership Down though.

Can't remember whether it was Snow White or Bambi now.

My mum took me to see "the Bodysnatchers" when I was very young, she did not realise what it was all about and I had nightmares after thet!

The Cat From Outer Space

Great film, and it was my birthday treat.

I started to go to the pictures since I was under 5. There has been massive big-screen culture in India, which still hasn't faded away even after the invasion of DVD players and in-home Plasmas. When I was a kid, the excitement for going to see a film in theatre was unreal! At the age of 4, I was fancying an Indian actor called Jeetendra , even when he wore the cheesiest, white, skin-tight trousers, and had an owl's nest for his hair. Those were the days PMSL

I know I saw Star Wars at the cinema but the first film I can remember seeing was...

My ex took his mum to watch Shallow Grave for her 60th birthday.
He also got me the DVD of an old film called Damien child 2 or 3, just a day before I gave birth to our second child. I bow to his thoughtfulness.

Can't remember the name of the cinema, but its downstairs is now a Mcdonald's.

Never tried that, is it as good as seeing it in any other light?

What sort of light would you use, given the choice?, should you get the opportunity that is.
