January Film Challenge 🎥

[morelikeasong]

From the tyrant that brought you the song challenge:
January Film-A-Day Challenge

The rules are simple. I’ll post a prompt from this graphic and you will name one film. You can post a video clip, image of the cover, or just type it.

One. Film. Per. Day

You are highly encouraged to share why you picked a film, stories about your choice, feedback on other people’s choices.

Jump in at any time! It’s ok if you didn’t start on day 1; everyone is welcome.

Day 1: The first film you saw at the cinema

I'll play!

My first film in theater was the original Ghostbusters. My parents took me when I was really young. This particular line always cracks me up when I watch it.

Day 1: The first film you saw at the cinema

I can’t guarantee that this was the actual first I saw in theaters but it is the first I remember. I was like 6 years old? I remember begging my mom to take me to see it. She said it would be too scary but I insisted it would be fine. Why she took the word of a 6 year old on that one I’m not sure. I remember sitting in her lap and hiding my eyes while the water was rushing onto the ship and I remember her talking about what a mistake it was to bring me to that

I also remember asking why the windows in that car were all foggy…

Day 1: The first film you saw at the cinema

The first film I remember was probably the first I saw at the cinema (1969). I loved this movie and can still laugh out loud when I see it.

I never had a chance to be normal

I can’t be 100% sure, but this is the one I remember seeing for sure. I got to take friends with for my birthday. I thought it might have been Cannonball Run II but that came out after this. Smokey and the Bandit II is another possibility, but I can’t remember if I saw that in a theater or HBO or VHS at home.

Yeah but who wants to be normal anyway. I love Mel Brooks and Gene Wilder so much.

I never had a chance to be normal

Saw this in the movie theaters, but it was not my first one.

I think one of my first movies was a Flipper movie… this movie was made in 64 and I was born in 67, so I’m thinking it was sometime around 1970/71.

This is the first one I remember seeing in a theater. I remember thinking “what a weird ending” and then finding out that it was only intermission. I think it’s the only movie I’ve seen that had one.

Day 1: The first film you saw at the cinema

I’m pretty sure it was this one, although it could’ve been Return of the Jedi, or maybe it was ET? Something I would’ve been too young for haha (like when my parents let watch Poltergeist when I was FIVE and I looked exactly like the little blonde girl who gets sucked into the TV )

 

[PassionatePanther]

It's either this one or ET.

Eeeeeee! I can’t give this one enough
I watched it with my daughter who wasn’t nearly as impressed as she should have been by me knowing every word to every song
