How did you first watch The Transformers The Movie?

Cinema - I *think* - when I was a boy. Saw it heeeeeaps more often after that on video cassette, my Dad used to let me hire it from the local video store regularly.

I think the cinema I used to frequent most often was Waverley Gardens in Mulgrave, Victoria. My first definite memory of going to that cinema was seeing the Tim Burton Batman film in 1990, only 4 years after TF:TM, so while I don't have a specific memory of which cinema I went to, that's the most likely.

Other..........
On the TV. I grew up in an area with only two channels, ABC and a regional version of Nine.
We happened to be holidaying at a place called Lake Boga in Victoria over the school holidays, either summer or easter because we went there to water ski.
Lake Boga I think had the regional version of 10 (iirc) and low and behold they had the movie on!!

Was it on New Year's Day? I remember when they used to play TFTM every year on NYD.

Dvd and/or vhs rental sometime in mid 2000s, but it kept bugging out at the Quintesson execution scenes. I was huge into the G1 cartoon from about 2003 to 2007, when they played it all the time on Boomerang. I eventually gravitated a little more to Cybertron in 2005-6 and the movies thereafter, but I'd always go back to the G1 cartoon.

Quite possiby, thinking back now it was quite hot so it would have been summer school holidays. definitely pre 1990 too.
