Guess Who's Coming to Dinner when I was 8 is the first I can remember. I remember seeing some kid's movies before that but not what the titles were.

(I didn't have a clue what was going on in that movie though. Went with my uncle/aunt. Got popcorn. Profit....)

Tora Tora Tora, which cemented my love for history specifically the Pacific War and directly led to me joining the Navy when I got old enough.

First full length I can recall is Winchester 73 in 1950 at the Saenger Theater. I'm sure I had been earlier than that, but don't remember the feature.

The original Jurassic Park. I was 4 and my parents thought it was an excellent idea.

I think Bambi. Possibly Fantasia or Pinocchio. Obviously they were re-released as I just turned 33 today.

2001: A Space Odyssey. They brought it back to the theater in the 80s, I was under 10.


ETA

We used to drive an hour to see movies in the late 90s when that place opened

Lost World was my first time at the palace. My first Movie was ET, the first movie I can remember seeing is Jaws 3d.

I am not sure what the first movie I saw was, but I saw RotJ on opening night. I was 5. That was an experience!
