Favourite Kids Movies

[Maxximus 353]

My mistake, still loved it though.

 

I can also add a big list of other horror movies I watched and loved when I was pre teen.

Flight of The Navigator :D

Probably Toy Story 1 and 2, when talking about animated kids films. Although, I see Pixar films as "family" films more then I see them as "kids" films anyway.

 

As for non-animated kids films, I'm not sure. If Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (the original 1970's one) counts, then that.

 

As much as I hate to give Anime any credit at all, considering that most of it is horrific, Spirited Away is pretty great. So is My Neighbor Totoro.

 

What the heck are you on about? :?

I thought that was obvious; he thinks (as do I) that most Anime is of poor standard and a chore to watch. He is allowed to think that.

[Guest Inno]

I actually agree. I don't get the whole anime movement at all. It's just not for me.

Theres some good stuff in there, but it can be hard to find. Guyver is about the best in my eyes.

Which Guyver? The original or the remake?

[Paul 584]

I didnt know they remade the anime. I know they did sequals.

 

edit: in other words, the first ones. :lol

Well the one I saw was the 12 part series, that was made in the early 90's.

 

I've also seen the Guyver: Dark Hero live action film.

[Paul 584]

Yeah, Dark Hero was the sequal to the first Guyver film (that had Mark Hamill in it).

Yeah, I haven't seen the first live action film, only Dark Hero.

 

And I haven't seen the anime remake either, only the original. :)

Vaguely pedophilic set-pieces. That's what happens in it.

 

Huh?

 

Karate Kid was my favourite as a kid along with Alladin. Now just about anything by either Studio Ghibli or Pixar is a great watch even as an adult.

[Guest John Hancock]

About 60% of that film is just shots of naked children, or up-skirt shots of kids panties. Seriously, it's weird.

I also would like to point out that Transformers is as good as, if not slightly better than it was when I was a kid.

 

I swear down my one friend still wells up when Optimus Prime dies. The big wuss. :lol

 

Okay, I've taken a look back through my box of VHS tapes, and this is what I found from when I was a kid:

 

Both Bill & Ted films

Jurasssic Park

Action Force: The Movie

Willow

The Goonies (how has no-one mentioned THE F*CKING GOONIES!!?)

Short Circuit 1 & 2

Basil The Great Mouse Detective

 

and for some reason Stop! Or My Mom Will Shoot. Yeesh.

[Guest Inno]

oooo! FX! The Deadly Art Of Illusion! That was awesome!

[Paul 584]

What a great film!

 

Was that a kids film?

[Guest Inno]

Dunno, but I remember it from when I was a kid! Came out in 86 so I would have been 11... sounds about right :D

[Paul 584]

Yeah, I remember watching it with my dad. The clown suit was just brilliant.

[Guest Inno]

That's what I remember... I so wanted one. Still do!

[Guest Anime Otaku]

F/X has a guy getting shot repeatedly in the face near the beginning IIRC so I wouldn't call it a kids movie. Then again people let little kids watch stuff like Halloween.
