So I really want to ask this cute boy out but I have no idea what to do for a first date... I have never been in one. Ever.

Any good ones showing right now? I don't want to do something just because, but rather something we would actually enjoy...

In my opinion, I think a problem that a lot of people have is that they over think first dates. I know some people try to do unique and extravagant things for a first date, but in my opinion, going to dinner is the perfect first date. The whole point of first dates is to get to know that person and to find out if you want to continue on with them. Going to dinner allows you to talk, get to know each other, joke around, have fun, etc. Some people might say it's "lame" or "boring," but in my opinion, you can never go wrong with just dinner.
However, I would suggest doing something after dinner as well. That way you can hang out some more. Going to the movies is a good idea. If you have places like mini golf or such around where you live, that is always fun. I would just do something simple. It doesn't need to be unique or anything crazy. Just a nice, fun night to get to know the person.
Although, from my past experiences, I would never simply go to the moves on a first date. Simply because you just don't get to know the person that way. You aren't talking, getting to know each other, or really having much of a date in my opinion. You are just sitting there watching a movie. I don't think there is anything wrong with a movie after something like dinner, but I personally never do just a movie... Unless you have been dating for quite some time, then sure, going to the movies can be a nice, quiet night out.
That is just my opinion, though. :)

Go see Sinister and then go do something after.

I'm not a fan of going to the movies when it's my first time out with someone. It doesn't really give you time to talk to each other. My favourite thing is go out to dinner and then maybe a walk or a drive, that way you get time to talk to each other an get to know each other while you have time alone. That or if the person you are out with has an interesting hobby then maybe do that, it will show them your interested in their life and they are almost guaranteed to enjoy it, that way also makes it easier to ask them out somewhere in my experience.

Talk like a walk around like a mall (but like make it playful and fun) have a Punic at like night time or go and see a scary movie (sinister is supposed tobermory very scary) and then like walk home really slowly and talk.
If you don't like any of these just ask him what he wants to do.
