Think it was Jaws, was so little. The first I remember for sure was Empire Strikes Back.

Original Karate Kid. I know my sister took me to see ET, but my recall is fuzzy on that one.

I can't really remember what the first movie I saw was. I do remember that we'd go to the old Maurin's theatre in Reserve and they always played the same songs before the movie. I must have heard Up Up Away in My Beautiful Balloon and Love and Marriage well over a hundred times.

Oh, and they showed cartoons before the movie!

I'm pretty sure it was Pete's Dragon.

The reason I say "pretty sure" is because I also have a really early memory of seeing Bedknobs and Broomsticks... which I saw right before going to see the The Ice Capades (and may be unfairly "weighted" by the fact that Dorthy Hamill said "Hi" to me as she left the ice).

You remembered this one?

ET was a great start, but this number 2 could have ruined you.

I can sort of remember watching ET, but i was only 5. This first movie I can clearly remember is Spies Like Us.
