The earliest drive-in film I remember clearly is DEATH RACE 2000 (1975), but I certainly hit any number of drive-ins with my folks before that, perhaps even to films where I was actually meant to be watching. Though most of the films I was meant to see up till then were in theaters, instead…earliest indoor film that comes to mind is the Rex Harrison (and rather worse) DR. DOLITTLE…and, hey, now I remember…we did all go see the Disney live-action MILLION-DOLLAR DUCK in ’71 or thereabouts. (My folks actually preferred drive-ins, finding the car seats more comfortable…and clearly not too worried about soundtracks nor mosquitoes.)

The cuddle cafe–I suspect anyone bold enough (or desperate enough) to go hire a full-on pro won’t be taking in the half-measure of the cuddle/butt-pillowing (shred-wear or not)…but, then, who knows. Perhaps it’s a change of pace for the eclectic john.

Also, the movie Casper with Christina Ricci. But I think the Flintstones was first. My taste was pretty high brow…

I loved that movie, and it engendered in me a lifelong love of Greek mythology. The funniest thing about the movie is that, going back and looking at it now, I don’t know how well I would have enjoyed it knowing what I later learned about the myth used in the movie (most notably, the origin of Pegasus). It’s a weird catch-22: Would I have enjoyed it as much if I knew then what I knew now about the Greek myths, or would I have even become interested in Greek mythology without the movie? A conundrum, to be sure.
