Star Wars - Back in 77 at the Odeon Cinema, Leicester Square, London, UK. I must have been about 6, and fell asleep because I thought it was 'Boring' Came to my home town, and for some reason I kept watching it. By the end of it’s run I was hooked – Big time

Empire – In my home town the cinema was only 3 mins walk from my house, so my Uncle would take me all the time. Watched it - loved it. Was about 9, sort of remembered my mother letting me go to watch the film on my own on a Saturday afternoon. It was a very trusting time.

Jedi - Now this one I remember like yesterday. Again it was at the local cinema.
I think it was one of the happiest experiences of my life (after my son being born). 3 long years I’d waited to see this film, and man it was good.
I watched Jedi about 17 times in the 3 weeks it was on. The best bloody days ever!

EDIT: As we seem to be adding pictures, here was my second home for a long time
