ET
Mad Max 2: The Road Warrior
That's an incredible slate of releases within the span of a few weeks. I remember watching all of those in the theatre as a 12-year-old (except Conan, which was restricted IIRC), and being amazed.
'82 also saw the release of:
First Blood
The Dark Crystal
Tron
The best summer for movies ever?

we are the same age, but I spent that summer out of town staying with my cousins- who are up to 6 years older
so in addition to those movies (and Rocky III which I saw with my uncle) I believe I was snuck into Fast Times and Night Shift!
