Thomas (the Tank Engine) and the Magical Railroad is the first movie I remember watching. I was a big Thomas-head as a wee kid lol and that claw train guy was terrifying to me

I did not know there was a Thomas the tank engine movie. That show was crazy
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.
Some movies I saw so young I always knew them, like Star Wars ANH (I was a month old when it first released), but the first movie I remember watching was Cheech and Chong Up In Smoke.
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.
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.
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.

Star Wars EP3
Ducktales Treasure of the Lost Lamp. And man its got powerful nostalgia, i had completely forgotten about it but rewatching it 30 years later i remembered all the dialogue.
That may very well be one of my first ones as well! Could be fun to watch it again!
