By this, I mean the film.

I think that the first time I knew anything about it would have been when I got the Balto figure from KFC when I was little. I wanted to go and see it but my mum didn't so I couldn't go.
I saw bits of it at one point in 1995 but I can't remember where. I watched the full film on a rainy day on Sky Movies in 2000. My nan was round as she found it hilarious. She really liked Boris. Hehe. And she told me that the White Wolf was the angel wolf. At the end she still called out that we didn't find out who the white wolf was.

And then I found these forums and asked for it for my birthday. Along with the other films. 'Tis great.

I honestly cannot remember at all! :lol: I was five when it came out. For all I know I've watched and loved Balto all my life. I seriously can't remember life before it. Kinda cool in my opinion.

I don't know how old I was when Balto was released coz I never knew about it!

The first I heard of Balto was 4 years ago when I saw the WQ VHS in Tesco, I bought it and loved it, I bought WoC when it was released on VHS and B1 one year ago, I got WQ on DVD 3 years ago.

B1 is my fave film, then WoC, then WQ, I was really annoyed I never knew about Balto when it was released but my mum told me that she never saw any TV ads for it or any posters for it, if Universal had promoted it better I would have seen it years ago, :cry: .

I watched when I was little, kinda like how I got into Godzilla actually, didn't really understand and soon forgot about it afterwards. Later I watched it and cried like a little girl, to this day it's the only movie that can do that to me.

This is my story
I saw first time in 26 December 2004 ..when I was 13..The Balto1..Yeah I am delay >< As I saw it I loved it,the design of characters are very attractive for me,plus the story.
In 25 June 2005 I bought my Balto 2 DVD.I saw it..guess what I felt a strange feeling like this sucks..when it really....nevermind..it wasn't good that's all.
Then in 7th November 2005 my dad brought me ona CD Balto1 in Hungarian,then in 25 May 2006 I bought Balto1 DVD. :lol:

I actually found about about Balto very late, I only watched the movie for the first time about a year ago. I'm a huge animation fan in general, but I realised that there were a lot of 'classic' animated films that I had not seen yet, and this is when I 're-discovered' Balto, I remember hearing about the film when it first came out in cinemas, but never got around to seeing it. So, I decided to take the plunge and bought the first DVD...from the moment I stuck it in my player I was hooked and within that week I had ordered the other two films ^^

So, it took me a while to come around but I finally got there in the end.

I already posted in a topic like this long time ago but hey I'll post this again.

I first saw Balto in 1995 when it hit theaters. I didn't really start to appreciate it until 1999 however because Lion King overshadowed it. XD

.........I first learned about Balto.......er...... a loooooooong time ago......maybe when I was........four? Yeah, I was watching a LBT video, and this commercial for Balto comes on. But that's when I first heard about it............I didn't get to see it until.......two years later.........then I forgot about it, then my mom bought me the second one in Costco, I watched it, and I loved it. Then, two more years later, my mom rented Balto 3, and (I don't know why, but every time I watch Balto 3, I can't watch it just one time. Must be my obsession for Kodi.........), two MORE years later, we rented Balto and Balto 3 from our library, and, today, I might get to get them from the library again.
