I sit here and have family night with my kids and I get to watch lots of movies that the kids like and I have to say that I love mostly all the Disney moviesbut I have to say that my favorite so far has to be Beauty and the Beast .. I love that movie and I love the songs that they have in the movie.

i love beauty and the beast too =) i also like the incredibles and meet the robinsons, i find those movies both entertaining and inspiring. i've watched them both twice. [magicslate]
I loved those movies also!!! they were great [bellaofchaos]
Puff, the magic dragon, Mary popins, The Big bird movie. ET, was one of our favorites. My kids are grown and they still watch the wizard of Oz. My hubby still watches the Wizard of Oz. My son is grown and he watches all the super heroe movies lol He has 4 kids now so I know they are all watching them together! [eaforeman6]
E.T., Mary Poppins, Puff the magic dragon are some staples I would never think of not having with my five kids along with Pippy long stalking.. Remember that one. [bellaofchaos]
Hi there bella. I love almost all of Disney Movies as well and i must agree that Beauty and the Beast is one of my favorites ( my girlfriend really reassembles Belle in so many ways that if i were to compare her with a Disney princess, i know who that would be). I also love most of the classics, but also like some of the new productions (not all) like: Enchanted and Wall_E. [elitess]
After I saw Enchanted I called my sister and told her she had to rent it for her and her husband. They don't even have kids, but neither do I! lol [AmbiePam]
Well I don't have any kids to share kids movies with, but I LOVE watching kiddie movies...just about any Disney movie I love, but also other kid-geared movies, like The Last Mimzy, Harry Potter, Chronicles of Narnia, Spirit: Stallion of the Cimmeron, ..mmmm...to list them all would be a book. Must be the kid in me that enjoys them. Did you ever see the 2002 version of Peter Pan? Fantastic [pyewacket]
Ooh, I loved The Last Mimzy :) [slanted]
Can I cheat? I don't have my own children to watch movies with, but I do love Home Alone, preferably the first two with MacCauley Culkin in, they are so funny, and great entertainment and ideal Christmas movies too. When I worked with children and we put Thomas The Tank Engine on for them I used to enjoy it just as much as they did! As a child I used to love the Disney movies and Chittychittybangbang was one of my favourites! [wolfie34]
Thank you slanted, glad I am not the only "BIG" kid LOL! Oh and a very warm welcome to Mylot to you ;0) [wolfie34]
Bellaofchaos I am very fond of Cinderella and also Wind in the Willows which is also my favourite children's book. It is a long time since I sat down with any children an watched a movie together. But when I did, any Disney cartoon seemed to hit the spot. P1ke [p1kef1sh]
My Neighbor Totoro would be my favourite. It's an absolutely wonderful movie, sweet, charming and funny. I think the closest thing to it in western cinema would be Wall-e which - although the style of animation and story is entirely different - has the same heart-warming quality. Both are superb movies :) [slanted]
OH wow there have been some really good ones lately....My kids are both teens now but we still love watching some of the family movies plus with me babysitting a 2 yr old a couple times a week I get to see plenty of htem LOL some of my long time favs would be Ferngully, Aladdin, Jungle Book to name a couple....Some of my newer favs would be Cars, Madagascar, Over the Hedge and the always hilarious Finding Nemo...some of the ones I want to see are Wall-E, Kung Fu Panda and thats all I can think of at the moment.. [Ravenladyj]
My favorite movies to watch with the kids is The Santa Clause movies. I like them best because then it means it is close to christmas and we all curl up together and laugh alot. [lisa0502]
I love Beauty and the Beast too! I think it's the best Disney fairytale of all time. I adore Belle.. she's very lovely, isn't she? I love her singing voice, her innocence, and her brunette hair. She has the prettiest gown too! Celine Dion and Peabo Bryson's singing the OST always gives me goosebumps. It's also my favorite Disney song of all time. I'm sad coz there are not much 2D animated films now because of the popularity of 3D animations. But I love Finding Nemo and Shrek... so cute and funny. [amira_milka]
i like so many kids movies that it's hard to pick just one. my all time favorite kids movie is "monsters inc.". i think it's so cute and i like how even though the monsters are supposed to stay away from humans, 2 of them decide to help a human. it was a very funny, cute, and touching movie [princessmel]
Never ending Story, would have to be up there with the best. Wizard of OZ, (with garland), Hidden Garden, (The old one starts in B/W) Willie Wonker, (Wilde and Depp's) HICCUP/ [hiccup]
i like cartoon series very much when i was a child. until now, the West Jounrney is my favorite TV playy. but movie, i like Ten Brothers. everytime i watch it, i can't bear lunghing.lol [wiseshopping1]
i do not have kids either but one of my all-time favorites is THE PARENT TRAP. The movie stars Dennis Quaid (i think) and a young Lindsay Lohan who portrayed 2 characters--twin sisters. The twins were separated when they were babies, one lived with the mommy and the other with the daddy. they did not know they have a twin until they met at a summer camp. the movie is really endearing, i watch it when i can :-) [Rainegurl]
First off let me say me and my fiance do not have kids,but we are planning on having kids in the future,but we both love watching cartoons,and cartoon movies such as the Disney movies,and I know when we do have kids we will be watching them with our kids all the time,my favorite kids movies which comes to a tie between two,but I am sure our kids when we have them will like both to,are The Lion King,and The Lion King 2 Simba's Pride because they both have some wonderful music,and teach several things such as a families love. [hellcowboy]
My favorite "kids" movie would have to be Aladdin. I loved the movie because it was just so traditional and heartfelt how a guy would do so much for his girl. Plus I'm middle eastern so I am a little biased :) [redmen12]
i love ice age, madagascar, alvin and the chipmunks, flushed away, nemo and kung fu panda.. i am still kid at heart, i enjoy watching films for kiddos..=) [gracie04]
my kids love to watch different kinds of movies... and yeah, there are also a lot of Disney movies. [Nhey16]
for me, i like cinderella and snow white... these two movies never make me bored even though i had watched it so many times... and i like the flow of the story too... another one that i really like is poccahontas and hunchback of the notredame... i can't really say which one i like best because i like all cartoon movies and i can't choose... take care and have a nice day... [lingli_78]
I watch disney movies alot too for my little one. I like all of them really i am a really big fan on disney movies ever time i see a new one come out i have to see it if its intresting. I really like ratatuie and of course my favorte when i was a kid was little mermaid. My daughter really likes cinderella. So yeah disney movies rock. [artzone]
My all time favorite would be Little Mermaid and Beauty and the Beast. Disney has always been good with these kind of movies. I never outgrew watching those movies again and again. I love the singing too. I remember playing the part where Ariel sings her song because I trying to write down the lyrics. Haha. [divinegwapa]
How could I forget The Little Mermaid? I wanted to be Ariel! [AmbiePam]
I don't have kids, but it doesn't mean I don't like their movies! As a child my parents preferred me to watch older movies for kids. At the time they felt like the movies labeled for kids really didn't have much value in their content. So I grew up with Mary Poppins and Bedknobs and Broomsticks. I loved those movies, and I still do! Kid movies today that I enjoy are Shrek, A Bug's Life, and Matilda. Movies like that. [AmbiePam]
Hey buddies I just love the kids movies.they are very enter taining and very informative.They also tell about the differenrt cultures of the different nations.The science-fiction films tell about all the science to the children which makes the subject more interesting and enjoyable.And there are also fantasy movies which makes the kids to be innovative. [23uday]
Our budget has been tight lately to the point of not even being able to rend movies, so we've resorted to our old VHS movies a few times recently. My two favorites are The Fox and the Hound and The Little Princess. Much of the reason is purely sentimental. Fox and the Hound was the very first movie that we bought my daughter when she was little. We played that movie a hundred times! Shortly after, I got her the movie The Little Princess. It was a favorite of both of ours. We watched that movie before bedtime many nights. We had a nice time watching those movies again a few weeks ago. In general, I lose interest in most kids movies really quick. Especially now the my kids are "older" 12 and 16. When they were little, I got more enjoyment out of watching THEM than I got out of watching the movies. Have you noticed that a lot of those kids movies have some pretty scary themes? lol [miamilady]
oh theres too many to pick just one! i watch kids movies alla the time, even just by myself. cool [tessah]
OH MY bella sweety I really have no idea what my favourite is as I love so many of them! I think if I had to choose I would say Shrek cos no matter how many times I watch it with the kids it always makes all of us laugh all the way through! Hugs xxx [mummymo]
Oh, there are so many. Mary Poppins, Beauty and the Beast too, and the Harry Potter movies. I think the Incredibles is probably my favorite so far! I am so glad I have a kid that I can take to these movies so I get to see them too!!!!! When my son is too old, I will have to volunteer to take friends' kids to movies... just kidding. I have always loved "kids" movies as well as "adult" ones! [quinnkl]
Hubby and I were just discussing this as we walked earlier. We started singing the little tune entitled 'Pachyderm Parade' from Walt Disney's The Jungle Book. We both loved that movie. The animals had such engaging personalities and there was so much symbolism in them. My second favorite would have to be The Little Mermaid. I loved the scene where the chef was trying to catch the sea creature. The music from The Little Mermaid is awesome too! [crazynurse]
I love Disney's Alladin because the singing voice of the character back then was a Filipina - Lea Salonga whom I like so much. lol [karamellized]
Well, my kids are grown, but I'm loving watching these movies with my grandchildren. One of my favorites is Finding Nemo. It is so colorful, interesting, and heartwarming. [ReoTwo]
Hi buddies, So many kids movies were their in the market and available. Some movies like fantastic 4, harry potter parts 1,2,3,4 , finding nemo, ratautille, flased away, ice age 1,2, Mr.bean holiday, bridge to terbithia, charlie chocolate company, superman, Tom and jerry shows. Like many movies were their for kids. [23uday]
Sorry I missed this discussion Bella (I have missed you btw!)as I was away for a while....lot going on! But anyway lol I like the Harry Potter movies! and of course almost all Disney movies, as a favorite, I don't really know I would be hard pressed to pick just one. The movie doesn't matter to me as much as the time spent together! [Erilyn]
Sorry it's taking this long to say hi and respond to all my discussions I have been very busy also and not really been on the lot as of late hope all is wel with you and take care! [bellaofchaos]
My children like movies like superman, batman, herry potter etc. besides cartoon movies like tom and jerry, pokemon, popeye, looney toons etc. [suruchi86]
