[Serrart]

I love Bad News Bears, Matthau is really wonderful in it. I imagined Akira couldn't be really for kids, with all the exploding bodies and the rest :laugh:. Ghost in the shell was great too even if a bit depressing. I also liked a lot the new movie by Otomo, Steamboy, and the new from Miyazaki Howl's moving Castle, the old lady is a hoot. :nod:

Romy

[seeker007nmss]

I just saw the Incredibles...... Well done flick!

[irishgrl]

Labyrinth
War of the Buttons (my personal fave)

[amber]

Oh, I haven't seen Howl's moving Castle! I would love to, I loved Spirited Away. I'll put Steamboy on my list, too. :thumbsup:

[AliP]

OMG!

Labrynth - love it. could do without David Bowie in tights though.

The Neverending Story - classic.

Robin Hood - the Disney cartoon. I think Robin is so cute in it and used to have a crush on him. Yes, I had a crush on a fox. Plus, the tunes in here are the best of any Disney movie evah "Robin Hood and Little John running through the forest, ooh da ladi, ooh da ladi, golly what a day." yes. i am a nerd.

The Parent Trap - the one with Hailey Mills. Especially the cake scene. Cracks me up.

And the Bad News Bears too, but not the one with Walter Matheau. The one where they go play in the Astrodome. :)

Incredible Journey - the orignal. When the old dog comes over the hill at the very end made me cry everytime!!

Private Eyes - the one with Don Knotts (is that is name) and the other guy..?? The part where the other guy (again, forgetting the name) keeps dropping the cans of peaches on Don's head. OMG!!

[StevieNicksEO17]

THE WIZARD OF OZ! You still can't pry me away from the TV when it's on. I'll rip your face off. :)

Unico was one of my favorites as a kid! I didn't think anyone else watched that!! No one ever knows what I'm talking about when I mention it. I've been trying to find it for my daughter and it's always $$$$$ on Ebay. I was a little suprised by that.

Ok...other favorties....
Care Bares, vintage Strawberry Shortcake :nod: , Finding Nemo, Shrek...can't think of any others now. Has anyone heard of an old kids movie called Caty the Caterpiller? I have been trying to find that one, too, with no results.

[thepoetinmyhear]

Labrynth is such a great movie.

:laugh:

I love it. It's so well-made that I can't stand it. When Bowie first appears in a cloud of glitter and juggles those crystal balls? I lose it. So much fun.

[all the same]

Hey, does Heathers count as a kids movie? :lol: I love that movie. I quote it pretty much daily!

[all the same]

[Dreammms]

:laugh: wow imagine :eek:

[dissention]

Oh, totally. We have a weekly screening at the elementary school.

Followed by liquid draino cocktails, viewings of sexually perverse photographs involving tennis racquets, and hippy freak discussions about suicide and the woes of cow tipping.

Yup, the kids have a blast.

[amber]

What an utterly foul movie. I wanted to take a shower after watching it because I felt so filthy.

[dissention]

Cinderella


My favorite has to be the one with Lesley Ann Warren and Stuart Damon. I adore that one. :nod: Just saw the one with Julie Andrews a few months back on PBS and thought it was superb, too. I hope it gets released on DVD.

I don't think I've seen either of those. Thanks for mentioning them, I may have to check those out. :) If I can get the television away from my daughter for awhile. :laugh:

[dissention]

*grabs throat* Corn nuts! *falls over*

BQ or plain?

[dissention]

The one with Warren is really great and it's a musical in case your daughter likes them. :) It was made for TV in the early sixties and the colors are very vibrant for back then.

[GypsySorcerer]

The absolute worst is the one with Whitney Houston as the fairy godmother. Puhleeze. :distress:

[all the same]

BQ!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Janet]

Last Unicorn!!
I was just going to put that.

I haven't seen that since I was 6 or 7. That was 20 years ago. Can you find it? I never tried but is it around?


Secret of Nimh...whatever the spelling is
Neverending Story
Mary Poppins
Little Mermaid
The Time Travelers or something like that...a little boy and lots of midgets.
Sound of Music

[Janet]

Oh Willie Wonka of course.

Popeye with Robin Williams , was my fav.
Superman...1, 2 and 3.

I was a child of the 80's:)

[Sugar]

The Time Travelers or something like that...a little boy and lots of midgets.



Time Bandits, I think, but it's been ages since I've seen it. :wavey:

[Sugar]

I don't think I've seen either of those. Thanks for mentioning them, I may have to check those out. :) If I can get the television away from my daughter for awhile. :laugh:

My daughter is four too, and GAWD I know what you mean! Thank God there are things that I like too, except it's really funny when I end up arguing with her because she wants to watch the insipid Care Bear movie for the millionth time and I'm saying, "C'mon, mommy would rather watch Finding Nemo!"

ANYWAY...

Labrynth...TOTALLY...Bowie makes the movie!
The Iron Giant...not sure if it's really a kid movie, but my daughter likes it too. The animation is killer!
Willy Wonka
Charlottes Web
Most of the Disney flicks, except Aladdin. The Genie's just too out there for my tastes

I also have the entire Muppet Show series AND (for those of you old enough to remember it) Riki Tiki Tavi! You know the mongoose and the cobra! LOVE THIS, cheesy 1970's soudtrack and all!

I also enjoy quite a bit of what's on Cartoon Network these days. Give me Edd, Ed, and Eddie, the Grim Adventures of Billy and Mandy (who knew the Grim Reaper was Jamacian?), Courage the Cowardly Dog, Foster's Home for Imaginary Friends, Static Shock, The Batman, Teen Titans, and The Justice League over 90 percent of the prime time programming anyday!

[skcin]

Willie Wonka
Goonies
Bad News Bears
The Dark Crystal
The Karate Kid (like Amber, mentioning movies I loves as a kid, though not sure it's a "kid's movie")

[ontheEdgeof17]

Goonies <3
Clue
Willy Wonka
Wizard of Oz
The Little Mermaid

[dissention]

Clue

I never considered it a kids movie, but add it to my list. Love it. Madeline Kahn is hysterical in it.

"Who are you?"
"I'm the butler."
"What do you do?"
"I butle."

[DrummerDeanna]

The Julie Andrews one is out on DVD...I saw an ad for it in a magazine...Entertainment I think.....It caught my eye because I was SO bummed out about missing it on our PBS station.....so I was like, "yea! I can buy the DVD..." :D

[ontheEdgeof17]

hehehe.


I just think the whole tone of the movie is child-like and fun. Very 13 years old.

[DrummerDeanna]

I can't believe I forgot Willy Wonka and Wizard of Oz on my list :eek:

I also love The Great Muppet Caper and A Muppet Christmas Carol :D

[ontheEdgeof17]

Adding my props to The Purple People Eater and Bejeweled with Emma Thompson....both used to be on The Disney Channel all the time. I can't find Bejeweled anywhere! Anyone have it taped? It's one of my favorite movies ever! I. miss. it.

Never heard of that one :shrug:

But for some reason that reminded me of another one of my favorites:

Something Wicked This Way Comes....

OMG, you are the only person in the world other than myself who knows of and loves those movies. :xoxo:

It's actually Emma Samms, though. ;) I had it on tape years ago, but not anymore. Such a great movie.

[wondergirl9847]

The Neverending Story
Unico and the Island of Magic (Japanese one)


I frickin' loved Unico!! Loved Neverending Story too! I had 6 hour cartoon tapes as a kid and I loved movies too. These days, I don't see magic in movies anymore. :( There are way too many to list that I loved as a kid. Lots of those being listed: Muppet Movies, Secret of NIMH (my favorite and I have the soundtrack), Robin Hood (Disney version) and OMG, yes, Clue too. I've seen it dozens of times. Love it! Have seen Wizard of Oz millions of times too.

One movie I do NOT understand (didn't see it until I was an adult and I didn't see the entire thing) was Willie Wonka and the Chocolate Factory. That is some freaky shiz right there. :shocked: Don't care for that one.

[ryan8472]

Um hello...Can I get some love for The Brave Little Toaster ?! :cool:

[wondergirl9847]

I love the Brave Little Toaster! :thumbsup: That lil electric blanket was the cutest!

Oops. You are right. When I type Emma....Thompson usually follows.

I wish someone had it. I had it years ago, too....and a friend borrowed it and never gave it back. :distress: I watched it a good three times a week.


"Georgette...you're looking lovely. 'Thank you'" :laugh: I love when that girl is talking to her doll in that weird accent.

[ontheEdgeof17]

Alrighty-

The Chipmonks Movie- I think that's what it's called. You know the one where they race around the world. :thumbsup:

The Care Bears Movie 1&2


The Chipmunk Adventure. I have the soundtrack to that one too. What? :laugh:

Care Bears movies are weird as hell, but I loved them with a passion.

[CreepingDeath]

The Chipmunk Adventure. I have the soundtrack to that one too. What? :laugh:

Adventure that's it. I love that movie. :D

[Dark Angel]

The one with Warren is really great and it's a musical in case your daughter likes them. :) It was made for TV in the early sixties and the colors are very vibrant for back then.

I'll defintely have to check that out then. She absolutely loves musicals. Her favorite at the moment is Phantom Of The Opera. :lol: She listens to the soundtrack every night while she falls asleep. She will not go to bed if I don't turn it on. :laugh:

[Dark Angel]

The absolute worst is the one with Whitney Houston as the fairy godmother. Puhleeze. :distress:

Never seen it, and never want to, but I've heard it's pretty cringeworthy. :laugh:

[Dark Angel]

My daughter is four too, and GAWD I know what you mean! Thank God there are things that I like too, except it's really funny when I end up arguing with her because she wants to watch the insipid Care Bear movie for the millionth time and I'm saying, "C'mon, mommy would rather watch Finding Nemo!"


:laugh: I loathe all of the Care Bears movies, and, of course, she had to have every single one of them. If I have to be in the room when she wants to watch any of those, I always suggest something else. :lol:

[all the same]

Um hello...Can I get some love for The Brave Little Toaster ?! :cool:

LOVE that movie! They did a sequel and it wasn't nearly as good but yeah. Totally!!! ;)

[Neal]

Last Unicorn!!

[NaiveMelody23]

I loved:

The Secret of the NIMH
Beauty and the Beast
Dunstin Checks In
and the one film that has always made me cry Fox and the Hound

[Dreammms]

I decided to watch The Never Ending Story. I am up to the part when artrez the horse gets sucked into the mud in the swamp of sadness. I hated that part when I was little and I still do :nod:

[NaiveMelody23]

omg omg omg I love The Nevernding Story. I love the book more, but that film when Atreyu tries to save the world and he thought he couldnt do it...it made me cry like a baby

[Red]

I decided to watch The Never Ending Story. I am up to the part when artrez the horse gets sucked into the mud in the swamp of sadness. I hated that part when I was little and I still do :nod:
OMG, I know!!! I still find that part so hard to watch!

Goonies is up there and I think there is still talk of a reunion. Corey Feldman is all over it!

[Miss Vicky]

I like a lot of the recent ones (and own many of them):

Finding Nemo
The Incredibles
Monsters Inc.
both Shrek movies
Brother Bear
Lilo and Stitch
Robots
Chicken Run
Sinbad (Put a shirt on, will ya? You're going to poke somebody's eye out!)

But also many of the classics

Who Framed Roger Rabbit?
The Sandlot
E.T.
The Goonies
The Secret of NIMH
Charlotte's Web (Templeton's the greatest!)

"The fair is a veritable smorgisboard orgisboard orgisboard
After the crowds have ceased
Each night when the lights go down it can be found on the ground all around
That's where a rat can glut, glut, glut glut!"

[BTFLCHLD]

a lot of those i love are already mentioned...

but id like to include lady & the tramp and those benji movies :wavey:

<img src="http://tinypic.com/4v0mqo" alt="Image hosted by TinyPic.com">

[wondergirl9847]

E.T....I remember I went to see that in the theatre with my parents. I was 6 at the time and I cried at the end. I didn't want ET to go home. :laugh:

<img src="http://tinypic.com/4v0mqo" alt="Image hosted by TinyPic.com">


Oh yeah! I loved those too.
And might I add the Herbie movies as well!

Not looking forward to the new one with Lindsay Lohan, though. Having her in a Herbie movie is just sacrilege I tell you!
