On a plane, it was on. I loved it.

Doug's 1st Movie
What a total heap of junk.

Scooby Doo 2: Monsters Unleashed

It's not a good. It is definitely not a good.

Youtube @TheRealSonjira I consider it a personal defeat if my pee is not perfectly clear every time.]

I believe it was Titanic. My mom went to see it right after I was born and took me with her.

I think it may have been Barney's great adventure (i was young, ok). Either that or Toy Story or a Bug's Life.

My first movie experience that I have memories of was Star Wars episode 4. I remember watching a VHS recording in the early 00's, one that I still own to this day. Im sure it was my first time watching it, I would have been 6-8. It felt familiar to me though. Like how a movie should be. It just felt right. I guess the nostalgia I hold to it is why I think episode 4 is better than episode 5, even though they're both great films. I never saw any of the prequels in theatres, despite being in the age that grew up with them. I tolerate them because they're Star Wars, but I was truly raised an 80's kid, with my movie and music tastes. I never really went to the theatres much. All my movies I own were recordings on VHS, and I still own the VHS player to the day.

The new KB Videos coming soon.

First movie I ever saw was The Lion King at a drive in. Drive in's are a great way to see new movies when you have a four month old baby; the baby can make noise and you don't annoy anyone else.

These are so fun to watch.  When I made the thread, I had the first movie theater experience in mind, but if you want to tell home video stories too, that's also just as fine.   Or, you can share your first from both categories.

The first movie I actually watched was Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971).  It would air once a year on television in the second half of the 1970s, and it's a real treat to watch as your a kid and it's all magic to you.  We had pretty strict bedtimes at my house (8:30), so to stay up until 10 PM was a read treat!

Keep in mind that this is in a time before VCRs, and you just couldn't watch a movie any time you wanted.  (We got our first VCR in 1986).  To see a TV movie for kids was a real treat.  It was also tradition then to show The Wizard of Oz at Easter, and King Kong and Mighty Joe Young on Thanksgiving Day.  People would gather and share the movie going experience across the nation together.

Also, Squid, that is quite a feat amassing every episode I set.  I have quite a few myself, including the Mos Espa Podrace (the chrome 1x2 grille elements are used in HOO episode 2's ambulance).  One of the podrace boxes (there were several boxes within the main box, for each podracer) I still didn't open because I had the Anakin as a separate set.  I also had the original Slave I.  It's put together right now.

Another thing about Episode I I got hooked on was Decipher's "Young Jedi" card game.  It's along the lines of Magic: The Gathering, but with the simplicity of Pokemon card game.  Some of the expansions are a bit rare, but you can find many of the first two expansions for relly cheap on eBay.  If you like card games, I suggest this one.  Buy a Menace of Darth Maul and Jedi Council starter set, and a box of boosters from each of those two expansions.  "The BAttle Of Naboo" gets a bit more pricey.

I've never been inside a theater, as I live in a somewhat rural (depending on who you ask) area and the theaters nearby don't usually play anything I would want to see in a theater so usually just get DVDs The first movie I saw was probably 'The Sound Of  Music' but It might have been the animated 'Charlotte's Web' as those were the first DVDs my family owned.
It's possible that I saw a movie on VHS before that but all I remember from that  long ago are short kid's videos (ie Kidsongs, Richard Scary, Dr Seuss, etc..)

“But the enterprise in which I’m about to embark on is fraught with imminent peril.”

theres no way im gonna remember what movie like ever, but I know i grew up on A Gay Purr-ee, Mumfy, Aristocats, and Kiki's Delivery Service. u kno hipster cartoons. So i'm gonna say one of those probably.

but i distinctly remember the first thing i saw in cinemas was The Incredibles. i was an extremely sheltered 6 year old and we were supposed to go see the polar express because its a g rated movie but my dad took us to the incredibles instead and i thought it was pretty cool.
