    Oh man, I can't imagine expecting a 5 year old to sit through that entire movie. I barely could at 25. Then again I do have ADHD.

    I think the first movie I saw in theaters was The Lion King with my dad.

    The first one I remember is Grumpy Old Men, but I'm sure I saw some Disney one before that.

    The first one I remember going to was some re-release of Snow White. We were vacationing in Dallas and went with all of our cousins.

    The first one I remember going to without parental supervision was Arachnophobia . Good movie! LOL

    I cried when the raccoon fell in Ace Ventura.

    My dad had to take me out of the theater.

    Mine was 'Once Upon a Forest'. I assume I went with my mum and one or both of my aunts.

    I was six at the time, and I remember the movie but not the people I was with. The cinema was a very rare treat when I was young. I don't know of many people who ever saw the movie, I don't think it did that well.

    I can't remember the first one, but I remember my grandad taking me to see the little vampire in 2000, I was 7. I loved my grandad, I remember absolutely everything about that day because I spent it with him, yet I can barely remember anything from just a few years ago, haha.
