What classic movies or really any older movie do you remember seeing on opening day?
For me it was RETURN OF THE JEDI
Line was so long I must have waited 2 or three showings to finally see it!

Too obsessed to turn back
I AM a classic so it's hard to say...Uhm... First movie I can remember seeing in the theater was "Beneath the Planet of the Apes" in 1970 or '71. If you talking blockbusters, it would have to be Jaws.
It's not how hard you hit, but how hard you can be hit and still move forward.
Never had enough toys..
None..
Seriously.., I believe Star Wars, Empire, and Trek-TMP were within the first few days of release or so. Never bothered to wait in mile-long lines.
I was at one of the US Premieres for DW's "The Five Doctors" (all shown on the same day). Does that count..?

There are so many. I was obsessed with going to the movies when I was young. At least 2-3 a weekend.
Jaws, in a little movie theater in the beach town of Lewes, Delaware (which reminds me quite a bit of Amity!). I didn't get in the water past my ankles the rest of the vacation!
Me too! Seems every movie that came out from 79-88 I saw in the theatre. R rated from 85 on..lol. PS-I really miss those days!Originally Posted by wilbs518
I also saw Saturday Night Fever PG on opening day
That one was really crowed -- with kids
