    Radio was big in the 50's! Not everyone had TV yet.

    The Lone Ranger
    Amos and Andy
    Boston Blackie

    Amos and Andy was so funny! yet it could never be played today, with all the racial sensitivity now!

    I think it might have been Titanic. I could be forgetting earlier movies, but that one stands out.

    Don Ameche and Frances Langford in The Bickersons. Somewhere around here I've got a boxed set of LPs of that show. Still funny.

    It was Disney's The Little Mermaid for me.

    My mom took me when I was little. My second movie seen in theaters was Disney's Beauty and the Beast (the cartoon version).

    We took our daughter to see Beauty and the Beast when it came out, as her first theatre movie. She was only two, so we didn't know how it was going to go, but she sat quietly in her seat and was absolutely enthralled.

    I have vague memories of being taken to see some westerns or war movies first, but the first one to make a real impression on me was the original starwars in 1977.
    People who think a movie about plastic dolls is trying to turn their kids gay or trans are now officially known as

    Barbie Q’s

    I was pretty little myself when I saw that movie. I remember being sometimes frightened by the Beast (), but I definitely liked the movie overall because I remember that I kept requesting to see it again and again, in particular because of the addicting songs. I remember that we saw it a number of times before it left theaters (though it may be worth saying that movies back then remained in theaters forever).
