Much older movie:

 

What's Up Doc?

 

Stuff I watched as a kid:

 

Muppet Movie series

Close Encounters of the third kind

 

 

Can't think of many more at the moment, they'll probably come to me while I'm trying to sleep.

Event Horizon, that should keep your kids from ever wanting to watch movies and bothering you. Unless they like it...

 

I’m familiar with this movie you sick bastard.

The Problem Child movies were great.  Dennis the Menace

The original Charlie and the chocolate factory  is a winner with our 5 years old.  Same with some of the muppet movies. 

Also, the never ending story.

I still to this day think The Muppet Family Christmas Special is the best Christmas special of all-time.  Something to keep in mind for your little ones when the holiday season rolls around this year.  Pretty sure you can watch it off YouTube.

I was going to say "A Clockwork Orange" but someone beat me to it. Swiss Family Robinson is a solid mention.

Who in their right mind would watch  A Clockwork Orange with a child?

No one I know but Swiss Family Robinson was one we watched whenever it was on... I saw it in the theatre when I was a kid for fifty cents.

I will tell you what changed my life around age 10– the original Karate Kid. Still my favorite movie to this day!! 

Elizabeth Shue in a sweater? Didn’t like that movie at all.

Woke up my 14yo the other day and said "Hey, let's watch Groundhog Day!" 

We did, and he loved it.

 

Then the next morning I woke him up and said "Hey, let's watch Groundhog Day!"

And got most vicious side-eye.

my kids really like The Sound of Music and the original Pinocchio. That said, I didn’t realize there were scenes in Pinocchio of him smoking cigars when he was being a “bad” kid. Not ideal for kids under age 8 to see, IMO.

 

BTW, we never really got into a lot of Disney and Pixar movies, except Frozen. Been watching some of them recently and shocked at how good some of them are. The movie “Inside Out” is totally genius. I can’t believe someone came up with that concept—

it’s really brilliant. Just watched “Ralph breaks the internet” last night and it was similar in the sense of being really imaginative with how the internet worked. 

Yep. Both great movies.

 

Frozen is dumb.

 

Also, I watched Pinocchio when I was a kid. Never smoked a day in my life. The fact that he's smoking when he's bad is exactly the right message, is it not?

Seeing Lampwick, in shadows, turning into a donkey is far more disturbing than seeing Pinocchio smoke.
