    Now this was a long time ago but I'm almost certain it could of been a movie called Delinquents, I'm not even sure who starred in it, for some reason Kylie Minogue keeps coming to mind.
    The second movie I ever saw at the cinema was Dirty Dancing...aww i could watch that movie over and over, i know it word for word, my fave quotes from it are "nobody puts baby in a corner" and "i carried a watermelon" haha, Patrick Swayze (Johnnie) was gorgeous god rest his soul...i love the part where he takes Babys hand and places it on his chest for her to get the heart beat and he says "gugum... gugum" uffftttttt he was hot hot hot!!

    I can't remember the first film but the cinema had gas lighting and was called the Troxy in Fratton Road Portsmouth. Ah wait a minute, before that when I was a kid I went to Saturday morning pictures at the Odeon in Cosham High Street and Roy Rogers with Trigger would make regular appearances. That was back in the time when it had an organ player

    I remember it was on my birthday in either 1984 or 1985 and it was the Odeon or ABC. I was six or seven and I saw either the Care Bears or in December, it was Santa Claus the Movie - I remember that the "adult" 15 certificate choices then were Target and Hannah and Her Sisters if that dates it. Probably 1985. A good few years before I would have been able to watch those!
    Just looked up my local newspaper archive on the BNA and it was at the end of August 1986 when Target was indeed on Odeon One, Hannah and her Sisters was on Odeon Two, and Care Bears II was on Odeon Three which I saw. One year later!

    I was right with the sequence, but not the year. I should have realised as Hannah... was indeed made in 1986 and not the year before.

    I remember a few visits as a kid to see whatever Disney had re-released that year. I think pre-video times, a classic Disney was released at cinemas along with a new release
    first was Pinocchio , must have been about 5
    last movie went to the cinema to see was tomorrow never dies,

    My older brother used to take me to see films, whatever they all were I was too young then to remember a first. Two I do remember well are Damnation Alley, and Logan's Run (even with the bit of nudity), but I was a bit older for them. I also remember a peter sellers Shot In the Dark and some sort of Pink Panther Inspector Clouseau if they weren't one and the same, they would've been mostly over my head. Might've been a Carry On or something like it in there as well, ditto on over my head. It was mostly a function of him babysitting really at first.

    Love that one. Underwater football! And that line that the boy said that has connotations now that were perhaps okay at the time.

    My boarding school kind of had its own cinema so something like Quo Vadis or Bridge On The River Kwai. Or maybe The Yellow Rolls Royce with Rex Harrison.

    At a proper high street cinema maybe the first movie I saw was Every Which Way But Loose.

    Or perhaps it might have been one of the many Disney animations that kept getting reissued around that time... I've got very vague memories of watching Bambi in a cinema, but I'm not sure how old I would have been.

    I can certainly remember my first Bond film, though - The Spy Who Loved Me, again at the Scala. I saw so many great films there - Star Wars, Empire Strikes Back, Flash Gordon, Raiders Of The Lost Ark, ET...

    I sure do feel my age all of a sudden!
    Yeah,nobody forgets there first Bond movie!.....Diamonds are forever 1971 at Manchesters deansgate odeon (now a supermarket i think)
