How many people actually remember their first movie as a child?

I was around 2 and a half to 3 years old. I saw a double feature of Herbie the Love Bug and The Jungle Book, but I don't remember much. Just flashes. My second movie going experience (a bit older) "A Boy Named Charlie Brown" I remember much more. In fact the scene in the bathtub with the boat sinking always haunted me, because whenever i caught it played on TV, I guess they always cut that clip for commercials, but I always remembered Charlie Brown in the bathtub with the boat sinking and felt vindicated once the VHS and DVD came out.

I remember my first movie was at the drive in. Im pretty sure we saw night of the living dead. I only remember it cause my two older brothers were screaming there heads off like someone was killing them running around outside. They were scared of some part of the movie they saw. They had to stop the film for a bit so my dad could catch up to them and calm them down. My family has always been into horror films so it wasnt a surprise that it would be my first memory of the big screen.

I think if I try to remember better I can think of something earlier than what my first movie theater memory now which is "Herbie Rides Again". At that movie I saw the trailer for "Earthquake!" which I was hopped up to see and did see it in "Sensurround" although today, I don't remember the unique aspects of the Sensurround experience.

My mother would tell me about how she remembered the refrigerator sized speakers all around (actually, the sub woofers) and how they "clicked" on shortly before the big earthquake sequence took off and the massive rumble you could feel. Me, all I can remember about "Earthquake!" is the movie and seeing it in the theater (which stinks because I want to remember the sensurround). Oddly enough the scene that always stuck with me is the beginning of the Earthquake sequence when Victoria Principal is in the movie theater watching a movie and the film burns and breaks when the Earthquake starts.

not sure what it was, just something my mom took me to go see, I remember sleeping.

I do remember seeing Fox and the Hound, I think that might be the first one I really remember

The first movie I saw in the theater was Patton.

I don't remember much about other than my Mom took me and they played some cartoons before the movie. I think Adam Ant was one of the cartoons. I'm pretty sure it was pre-Star Wars.

James Bond Live and Let Die.......I wanted his magnetic watch.....

THAT was my first 'adult' film, going by myself.. Had to go because of McCartney's title song. I remember being a bit disappointed because I've seen a few snippets of Bond films on TV, and my parents said it would be a cool film. It was Roger Moore's first, and I didn't see what all the hubbub was about.

Now it's probably one of my favorites..

My first FIRST one was 'Snoopy Come Home' I believe, with my Mom, who'd be snoring away within the first 5 minutes..

Or was it 'Concert for Bangla Desh' with my brother..??? Can't recall.
