The last movie you saw-- in a theater?

I remember my parents and their friends once trying to get all us kids out of their hair for a bit, so they treated us all to a movie. We wanted to see the latest James Bond flick but that was way too racey, so we were forced to watch "That's Entertainment".
We gave our parents a hard time about that for decades. Told them it was basically child abuse to do that to young teens.
 
The new Avitar movie, last Summer.

Before that? I can't remember. I saw "Apocalypto" and Mel Gibson's "The Pasion of Christ." But I can't remember "when" I saw "The Passion". I also can't remember anything else I've seen in an actual movie theater. I just wait a few years until those first run movies in theaters finally make it to over-the-air broadcasts on television.
 
The last movie I saw in theater was Titanic, and was one those ‘super max’? style theaters. I have seen maybe 6 or 7 movies in theaters in my whole life.

As a yute in high school we had a Pussycat Theater in our town (Buena Park, CA.) that was all porno. We used to drive by as folks were leaving and yell "How did it end!!??" Pretty childish but hey, we were kids.

 
I still remember the first theater movie we ever saw. back in 1957 my mother loaded my sister and I on a city bus and headed to downtown Louisville Ky to see Gunfight at the OK Coral. this was going to be the highpoint of my existence. got to 4th street where several theaters were close together. there on the big billboard was Wyatt and his revolver and a woman with 3yards of cleavage hanging out of her blouse. that was all it took for mom to drag us into the next theater to see Moby Dick. I was so pissed I was hoping the whale killed everybody!

I've lived about 2miles from where that old theater was for 55years... I believe the building is now an AT&T building... If the walls could only talk... Or maybe... Never mind. :rolleyes: .....

... looked on Google Earth. That whole block is now a Ford dealership. But across the street where the big Schwinn bike store was is still there.

Wow, truly a frightening tale to be sure! Can you even begin to imagine how your life likely would have descended into a bottomless pit of despair and depravity had you actually seen that cleavage! :eek:

Your Mon deserves praise a having saved you from that obscene spectacle and instead chose to let you watch Moby Dick:

>>>... the story is a deep exploration of vengeance, madness, obsession, and humanity's fight against the forces of nature.

ps-- out respective Moms had a lot in common. :rolleyes:;)

my life would up that way without it. that billboard sure beat the woman's under ware section of the old Sears&Robucks that was in the outhouse.

I was thinking it was on Artesia, not Commonwealth... Of course never entering that establishment, I wasn't that familiar with it. :giggle: ...
