My Aunt took us to see Rocky 4, with Drago. Bada$$ movie.

I was 10.

My parents didn't take us anywhere besides the ballpark.

I had really strict parents when it came to movies/TV. When I was 12, there was a birthday party that included lunch at Sicily’s Pizza followed by a PG-13 movie…I was allowed to go to the pizza party and then had to go home

When I was very little, my parents would put me in the back seat of their 1964 Nash Rambler with a kind of bed/pallet where I would eventually go to sleep, and they'd go see movies at the drive-in. The only one I remember by name was Bonnie and Clyde (1967 version with Warren Beatty and Faye Dunaway). I was not quite 3 when this came out (August 1967; I turned 3 in November) but I remembered them seeing that movie by name and a seeing a particular scene involving a rowboat.

Was wondering if that was a real memory or not, and just a few years ago I finally watched it myself. Sure enough, at one point there is a scene with a rowboat on a pond.

Not that there was anything wrong much with that movie in 1967.

But in 1976 when I was 11 and my little sister was only 8, my dad and step-mom took us with them to see the movie adaptation of "Ode to Billy Joe" at a theatre. I don't think they knew what was going to be in it-- makeshift brothel with whores, nudity, teen sex, homo sex, etc. Lots of cringe and silence with that one.

My parents never took me to the movies. My mom would drop off me and my sister, go run errands, and then pick us up.

Just thought of the Bad News Bears ? My daddy laughed his fool head off. It was awesome.


Yeah that was the first movie my dad took my brother and me to when I was 6 years old, at the old Galvez Mall theater in Galveston. What a great movie!

I went around for about a week afterwards trying to act like Tanner until my mom heard me tell one of the neighborhood kids to "shove it straight up their arse!". She ended that behavior real quick.

That they shouldn't have.

Earliest memory I have is Jaws and The Town That Dreaded Sundown. Both scared the hell out of me.

Anyone else with cool parents?


Not that I'm proud of this but it could explain somethings.

First Movie my parents too me to see was Stir Crazy. Second one was Porkys.
