Movies to watch with your kids

[HoldingFolding]

I'm talking here about movies that aren't specifically for children. Examples: 'Castaway' was a disaster because of the blood & the tooth scene, but 'Four Weddings & a Funeral' was a great success, though obviously they didn't understand it all, in conversation we often refer to elements of it (i.e. deafness, weddings, love etc.). I have 2 girls aged 6 & 7. Anything spring to mind?

Rob Zombie's "The Devil's Rejects"

I figure, they are going to be desensitized to violence anyways, why not start em out early!

Well, my default for being great for everyone tend to be kid ones, but I'd suggest:

George of the Jungle
Emperor's New Groove
Iron Giant
James Bonds
King Kong (the original)


A TV show that is strictly adult in script that my kids seem to love despite this is The Prisoner!

Shrek.

How has no one said Shrek.

Also Ghostbusters the original is great and actually funny as an adult, and lots of cool stuff to see as a kid.

Also any other movie that you liked as a kid that you haven't seen in a while. It's nostalgic for you and they seem to like it.
My daughter likes the Goonies and Back to the Future

I love watching movies that I used to enjoy as a kid, and seeing whether or not they're as good now, with all the jokes and dialogue you didnt get as a kid.
