The first ones I really remember were Star Wars and The Rescuers (both in 1977 when I was 6).

Others included:
Superman in '78
The Muppet Movie in '79
My Bodyguard, Empire Strikes Back, Flash Gordon in '80
Raiders and Chariots of Fire in '81

First R rated movie (in the theater) was Rambo in '85.

Remember going to see Flash Gordon in the theater and coming down with Chicken Pox immediately afterwards.


FYI - this site has a good list of the top ten movies by year. So it may help spark some memories:
