10 classic 70s films I'm glad I got to see when they first opened in a theater!
1. Willy Wonka & the Chocolate Factory- 1971
2. Poseidon Adventure-1972
3. The Towering Inferno-1975
4. Jaws-1975
5. Star Wars-1977
6. Close Encounters of the Third Kind-1977
7. Superman The Movie-1978
8. Dawn of the Dead-1978
9. Star Trek The Motion Picture-1979
10. Alien-1979
I envy you. Just going into the theater not knowing what to expect at all from these movies...such a thrilling experience.
And there ws no internet to overexpose or spoil things. I didn't see the design of Alien's creature till I was in my seat and the lights went out.
I also saw "Jaws" in 1975. A year later I saw "Rocky" at the same theater. Mainly this says we're old farts, at least compared to most of the others here.
