Herbie Rides Again. I barely remember anything about it. My daughter and I watched The Love Bug when she was little. It was slow moving lol. I don't think I researched this one. But no doubt it was typical 1970s campy Disney kids movie fare.

I have a better memory of watching The Apple Dumpling Gang a year later. Now, Tim Conway and Don Knotts are comic geniuses, of course, but unless someone can vouch for this being some kind of cinematic masterpiece, I really don't see myself watching this one again lol.

Lady and the Tramp. Had to have been a re-release because I definitely wasn’t alive in the 50s. Don’t really think much because I don’t remember much except the spaghetti scene.

I think it was Disney's Aladdin at the cinema.

I'm not a massive fan of that movie, never was. It's an ok movie in my books. In that regard, my opinion hasn't changed. But I appreciate better the Genie as a character and Robin Williams voice acting, which at the time I was so young I didn't even notice.

Cinderella
Before anyone makes the obvious joke, it was a re-release! I’m not that old :)
It’s still a beautiful movie and I now regularly watch it with my daughter. It has beautiful art, cute animals and catchy songs. 🎶bippity boppity boo🎶
And that stepmother has one of the evilest smirks I’ve ever seen. No magic or anything and still one of the best Disney villains.
I think the only downside is the bland prince. He has about the same personality as a boiled potato.

I don’t remember how old I was when I watched it, but I was young enough to still be allowed to run through the theater.

I think the first one I really remember is the Goonies. I remember thinking the Asian kid was cool because he had gadgets. And the skeletons were scary.

I watched it with my kids. The skeletons are still scary, and the depictions of fat kids, Asians, and people with disabilities wouldn't fly now. Also the casual fighting between the brothers was weird to watch.

King Kong 1976 beat out Star Wars, which was the next year.
