The iron giant and bubble boy are some of my earliest memories. Still great movies
Star Wars in either 81 or 82 when it had additional theatrical runs.
Still love it.
King Kong 1976 beat out Star Wars, which was the next year.
Some movies I saw so young I always knew them, like Star Wars ANH (I was a month old when it first released), but the first movie I remember watching was Cheech and Chong Up In Smoke.
Thomas (the Tank Engine) and the Magical Railroad is the first movie I remember watching. I was a big Thomas-head as a wee kid lol and that claw train guy was terrifying to me
Star Wars EP3
Herbie Rides Again. I barely remember anything about it. My daughter and I watched The Love Bug when she was little. It was slow moving lol. I don't think I researched this one. But no doubt it was typical 1970s campy Disney kids movie fare.
I have a better memory of watching The Apple Dumpling Gang a year later. Now, Tim Conway and Don Knotts are comic geniuses, of course, but unless someone can vouch for this being some kind of cinematic masterpiece, I really don't see myself watching this one again lol.
I think it was Disney's Aladdin at the cinema.
I'm not a massive fan of that movie, never was. It's an ok movie in my books. In that regard, my opinion hasn't changed. But I appreciate better the Genie as a character and Robin Williams voice acting, which at the time I was so young I didn't even notice.
Ducktales Treasure of the Lost Lamp. And man its got powerful nostalgia, i had completely forgotten about it but rewatching it 30 years later i remembered all the dialogue.
That may very well be one of my first ones as well! Could be fun to watch it again!
I remember a drive-in screening of Clint Eastwood’s Firefox and Megaforce. Megaforce seems to have found a cult audience in 2023, and I don’t know if I’ve ever heard Firefox mentioned.
I’ve avoided both as even though I have positive feels of that particular night, I doubt the films were good.
