Age 10 - Jurassic Park (1993)

Age 18 - The Lord of the Rings (Fellowship) (2001)

Age 22 - Batman Begins (2005)

1976(ish) - I have a younger sister, and perhaps that's why the only ones i remember seeing in the theater are Freaky Friday and The Shaggy D.A. I'm going to cheat and go with Star Wars which I saw the following year, and which really amped up the already-emerging Sci-Fi geek in me. (I remember being around 7 or 8 and catching a Star Trek episode on TV by accident one day, and not knowing the name of the show, I kept bugging my Dad that I wanted to watch the show "with the guys with the A's on their chest.")

1984 - Terminator!

1988 - Was married by this time, and I honestly can't remember us going to see movies together. However, I'm kind of sure I saw Dangerous Liaisons in the theater. Malkovich and Close played absolutely despicable (but very interesting) characters, PLUS Michelle Pfeiffer and Uma Thurman.

Did you see King Kong or Logan's Run, or I think All the President's Men, which came out in 1976?

age 10 ('89): National Lampoons Christmas Vacation
age 18 ('97): Titanic
age 22 ('01): Fellowship of the Ring

10 - 1976 Bad News Bears

18 - 1984 The Teminator or This is Spinal Tap

22 - 1988 Bull Durham or Naked Gun

10 - Lord of the Rings or Shrek
18 - The Hangover
22 - Hunger Games: Catching Fire

10 - Planet of the Apes
18 - Animal House
22 - Blade Runner

Lotta love for LOTR.

Same age so..
Age 10 (1977) - Star Wars - nothing can touch this
Age 18 (1985) - Rambo II, Silverado, and Real Genius to add to the list
Age 22 (1989) - Batman, Lethal Weapon 2, When Harry met Sally, Little Mermaid to add to the list ( I got married that year so my taste adjusted some)

1979 - Alien, Apocalypse Now, The Deer Hunter, The Jerk, All That Jazz, The Amityville Horror, The Black Stallion, plus several others.

1987 - The Princess Bride, Lethal Weapon, Planes Trains and Automobiles, Raising Arizona, Less than Zero, Hoosiers

1991 - Silence of the Lambs, Father of the Bride, JFK, City Slickers

You enjoyed The Deer Hunter at 10? I think most kids would check out 3 min into that wedding.

So, I have a late ish birthday, which worked nice in this challenge.

10. Jurassic Park. I loved dinosaurs as a kid. I saw it three times just to watch the dinosaurs on the screen. I am not sure 10 year old me care about the plot. Favorite part was the T-Rex "saving" the day at the end.

18. Snatch. Everything about seemed amazing.

22. Revenge of Sith. Still don't know if I actually like the movie, but I was pretty amped about seeing the "last Star Wars movie ever".

True about Star Wars, but that year also produced a couple of other time-tested classics in Close Encounters of the Third Kind and Smoky and the Bandit.

The only other movie I can think to possibly add to 85 is Pale Rider.

Me too.

Less Than Zero - for small town kids, the portrayal Beverly Hills ultra-rich lifestyle was a trip. Although he was a junkie and F up, we all copied the style and mannerisms of Julian, not Clay, because he was so cool. (Right up until that whole prostitution for drugs thing).

Thinking about favorite movies at that time

10 - (1997) - Spawn, Starship Troopers close #2
18 - (2005) - Wedding Crashers
22 - (2009) - this year was pretty terrible for movies. I liked Taken the best.

'88 Big
'96 Independence Day
'00 Castaway

Age 10 1958 No Time for Sergeants

Age 18 1966 The Good, the Bad and the Ugly

Age 22 1970 MASH

Age 10 - Austin Powers Spy Who Shagged Me
Age 18 - American Gangster
Age 22 - Moneyball

Odd, not a single person shares my birth year in this thread.

10 (1991) - 1a) The Rocketeer and 1b) Nothing But Trouble

18 (1999) - 1a) The Matrix and 1b) Fight Club

22 (2003) - 1a) Love Actually and 1b) School of Rock

First Blood at 10, did you have to sneak in?

10 (1982) - Rocky III with ET a close 2nd.

22 (1994) - Pulp Fiction - Blew my mind but Gump and D&D are close.

Age 10 - Stand By Me

Age 18 - Field of Dreams

Age 22 - Braveheart

Age 10 (1993) Jurassic Park - I LOVED this movie and still do.
Age 18 (2001) The Fast and the Furious - Not everyone's thing but I still like the original group that made this.
Age 22 (2005) Batman Begins - Once again, I LOVED this movie and still do.
