I was taken with my parents to see Poltergeist in the theater so I must have been 7 as well. That did affect me quite a bit. Scared the hell out of me for quite a while (I too had a big tree right outside my second story bedroom window). However, it was also the last time I was scared watching a movie. So I don't know if the impact was positive or negative.
Strangely, we were not allowed to watch A-Team.

Did they also take you to a really hilarious movie and thus you've never laughed again? Did they wear smilie face shirts all the time, thus your dislike for emoticons? Were you forced onto a roller coaster at the ripe age of 5, thus taking the thrill taken out of thrill rides forever? Suddenly the stoicism of Alex Stroup is explained.
Strangely, I was allowed to watch the A-team. Yet Scooby Doo, Smurfs, and I Dream of Genie were off limits.
My dad snuck in James Bond movies every time my mom left the house. I loved them when I was 8.
