My kindergarten teacher took the class to see The Last Unicorn in the theater.

I think I just aged myself there.

as did i!!

I started watching that when I was like 5, maybe 10 maximum, but I never finished it because I got freaked out by some of the villains or something. I was very easily frightened as a child. XD

I don't even remember what my first movie was... Probably some Disney princess film.

reply

Haha, I remember it having a more adult feel to it than other cartoon movies. I was your typical 80s girl and was probably distracted by the unicorns.

reply

Yeah, I loved unicorns for the longest time. In 4th or 5th grade, I was still drawing unicorns in my spare time. Some jerk made fun of me for it, prancing around and singing, "I'm a magical unicorn, come on out and play!"

That was embarrassing, but I got over it. Heck, I still have some unicorn paintings in my bedroom, and I'm 20 years old. xD

Awww. Well, I was the little pale faced, green eyed, redhead girl with her purple unicorn Trapper Keeper. *insert numerous ginger jokes here* I had a real smart mouth, so most thought twice before actually bullying me though. Also, I recently turned 40, but get mistaken for still being in my 20s; so it's all good. :)

Have you read the book?? Soooo good!

reply

I haven't. I will now. Thanks for the suggestion!

Interesting question. I think it was Zeferelli's ROMEO & JULIET (a re-release!!) When I was little my mom used to tell us theater and opera (and some movie) plots as bedtime stories, and that one was my favorite. When she explained there was a "movie" of it, I was somewhat confounded. Like, "What's THAT??" Then it was playing at a drive in and we went. I fell asleep.

reply

Can't remember but I DO remember my 4th grade teacher taking us all to see Song of the South at the theatre...loved that film!! I managed to get a copy on DVD, had to get it through the UK as it was banned in the US years ago. Ridiculous!

I vaguely remember seeing parts of Bullet at the drive-in back in 66 or 67. I was just a wee one then.

reply

Correction, Bullet, was in 68 with Steve McQueen. That's the one I'm referring to.

reply

Whoops! Another booboo...it's, Bullitt, not Bullet. LoL...I'll get it right eventually. 😉

I can't wait for the edit button. A goof I made the other day is still gnawing at me. *twitch* 😣

reply

The first one I can remember watching was "The Wizard of Oz".

reply

I couldn't possibly guess what the first movie I ever watched on tape was. I'm not sure what the first one I watched in the theater was either, but it might, MIGHT have been Toy Story. I can't be certain about it though. That's just my best guess.

reply

The first movie I remember FOR SURE watching in the theater, was The Lost World: Jurassic Park, when I was 7 years old. I remember it clearly, just me and my dad went. I'm pretty sure I saw other movies in the theater before then, but I can't be sure which ones or when.

reply

E.T. was my first movie.
