herbie the love bug with don knotts

Hey!....me too! At least that's about as far back as I can remember. We had a '67 white VW beetle and the whole family went to Hollywood's Grauman's Chinese Theatre in it to watch Herbie the Love Bug. I thought we were so cool in it.
 
Close Encounters. Scared the **** out of me! I was just a little guy.
 

Ben Hur With I beleive Chareton Heston

And then Sound of Music,

These are movies back when most of you guys were just a glimmer in your dad's eye
 
You guys are making me feel really old!!!
But at least the first movie I remember going to was a 'talkie'! LOL.
Actually, it was "Oklahoma" when it first came out in '55. My mom and older sister took me because my dad (Union Pacific railroad engineer) was out on a run and they couldn't find a sitter for me.
 
I know it was a Bruce Lee movie(Enter the Dragon maybe)I swear we kicked every fence on the way home!LOL!!EEEIIIIYYYYY!!
 
:clock: the first one for me was the Alamo with john W. in the back of a 47 dodge p/u.not sure the year somewhere in the late 50s early 60s.
 
I was a DriveIn baby (probably in more ways than one...), but the first movie I have even a partial memory of was Mary Poppins. I remember Dad grousing about how long the chimney sweep scene was:angry7:.The movie that had the greatest effect on me was a first run showing of American Graffitti in the theatre. WOW! When that 58 Impala pulled up to the light in traffic at dusk...that's when I irreversibly became a car guy! How ironic that I'm not much of a Chevy fan:-D!
 
I know I saw the pink panther at the theater but the one I remember going on my first date was to E.T.
I seem to oppress my childhood memories and I don't know why:scratch:.......I had a happy childhood:dontknow:
 
Revenge of the Pink Panther... I think it was in Rockville Center on Long Island. Think I was like 4 or 5?
 
Chicken run was my first movie too. I was older though. I think it was 1999 or 2000. I was 15 and saw it with my grandparents. I was soo hott and the theather was cool. The last movie I saw was Zombieland, which was better than chicken run. Since when do chicken have teeth anyway?
 
I remember my mom took me to watch "Chicken Run" when I was about..6?

What was yours?

Red River, in about 1948... I was ten.... (no typo):angry7:

All you guys talking about getting old because the first movies you saw were in the sixties (Beatles, etc.) are breakin' me up!!! I was 30, in 1968...
 
Song of The South. Had to be '73 or so but the movie came out in the '40s. I think it's been banned for 'racial insensitivity' or some such thing. Scared the crap out of me.
 
the first movie i rememeber seeing was in the early 1960s,,was at a drive in and a double feature,,," hot rods to hell " and " hells angels on wheels " was in the back seat of a 59 merc station wagon,,,,,with my parents,,,,

but the first moive i went to with out my parents was in my opinion,,the greatest movie,,,, " american graffitti " 1973,,kools cars,, great music,,,
