My dad took me to see Conan the Barbarian in the theater back in '82. I had just turned 6. Mom wasn't too excited about that. {nm}

Watched Cabin in the Woods with my kid today and LOVED it. :-) And just saw I got trolled by chosenone2oo5. :-( stolberg Jul 31, 22:04

mine was Alien. Thanks Dad! {nm} Moviesnob Jul 31, 22:12

I also saw this on video way too young (thanks to a dad:)... TwoMisfits Aug 01, 06:21

I have a recollection of being in the back seat of the car while my parents watched Barberella at the drive-in when I was 2, mantleclinic Aug 01, 08:26

Sorry, meant for the above to be on the general thread, but I did see Alien in '79 for my 12th birthday. {nm} mantleclinic Aug 01, 08:28

The drive in is the perfect place for that film (although maybe not at 2). :-) {nm} stolberg Aug 01, 10:13

Gotta love Alien! And gotta love DADS! {nm} stolberg Aug 01, 10:14

In the theater, The Lost Boys was mine. {nm} Willroast Jul 31, 22:27

Have much respect for Cabin in the Woods, breaks down barriers... Wrath_crfd Jul 31, 22:35

hehe. {nm} stolberg Aug 01, 10:15

Um, Police Academy. {nm} Qix Jul 31, 22:39

Is Qix an alias for Bill Clinton? {nm} stolberg Aug 01, 10:16

Ha! Just a pleb. {nm} Qix Aug 01, 14:56

Not sure, but I think mine was Quick Change back in 1990. {nm} ~JPV~ Jul 31, 23:14

Congrats on saw! Please help lgf get back on track {nm} djgrimlok Aug 01, 02:49

Thanks. !!!!! {nm} stolberg Aug 01, 10:16

I had 2 older brothers. Think I was subjected to Robocop, Aliens, and Child's Play well before I was 10. {nm} numbersix_99 Aug 01, 03:26

Pay no mind to chosenones's comment, he had nothing substantative to say. My first proper R rated film... RickandMorty Aug 01, 06:07

Yes!!!! I love those parents SOOOO much. Great story. {nm} stolberg Aug 01, 10:17

Terminator on video when I was 6 was my 1st (yes, really)... TwoMisfits Aug 01, 06:19

I'd definitely see your movie over 50 Shades of Saw. Terminator 2 was my first in theatres. Probably Aliens if we're counting VHS {nm} RogerMore Aug 01, 06:37

Maybe Stripes was my first R...but seriously...Jaws? rated PG? I was 10 when I saw that and did NOT go in the ocean for years. YEARS! {nm} Catzan Aug 01, 07:15

I know, Jaws as PG13 is ludicrous. But love that film so much. {nm} stolberg Aug 01, 10:18

I had to look it up, too: I'd thought it might have been R. Among my first would have been "Raging Bull" and "Apocalypse Now." second gary Aug 01, 10:37

cant remember exactly. i remember rambo first blood part 2 in theater at 12 yrs old without parents. w/my brother 10. the ticket guy islander Aug 01, 07:26

Yeah, those were the days - I snuck into my 1st theater R movie White Men Can't Jump at an age I'd rather not admit:) TwoMisfits Aug 01, 09:00

Ha! Yes, I skipped class with some friends and snuck into First Blood 2 on the opening day. {nm} stolberg Aug 01, 10:19

My dad took me to see Conan the Barbarian in the theater back in '82. I had just turned 6. Mom wasn't too excited about that. pnw_wildcat Aug 01, 08:20

Once again... gotta love Dads!!! {nm} stolberg Aug 01, 10:20

Another one I saw on video way too young (probably younger than I could appreciate it) TwoMisfits Aug 01, 10:21

I'm the one who's trolled! chosenone2oo5 here--seems they'd rather pick someone w/ a college piece of paper than someone who knows "Saw." chosenone2oo5 Aug 01, 12:09

Chosen - look at it as an opportunity, not a setback... TwoMisfits Aug 01, 12:22

Hey brother... stolberg Aug 01, 16:22

You're the man {nm} Moviesnob Aug 01, 18:29
