The Princess Bride is a good movie to watch with kids/family... IMDB

I don't mind old effects. I don't believe in ghosts, but I suspend disbelief when I see a horror flick. You gotta kinda go with the flow on these things.

This reminds me of a great one, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea, with Kirk Douglas. The special effects aren't a big wow by today's standards, but the movie is still a really fun movie. It doesn't bug me that CGI has made everything look so much better.

Heck, I think I like the old Ray Harryhausen flicks better now than I did when people were still really wowed by them.

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!

The Prisioner is [censored] awesome.

actually I dont think shrek is a kids movie at all.

but then again Im in school for comp animation so I like that stuff.

I still stand by damn near any movie made by that "comedy pack"... murray, chevy, akroyd... think old snl with some others, and boom,

hows that for a slice of fried gold.

Bill murry movies like "groundhog day" are good. I'm not to sure how the suicide scenes would fly with 6-7 year olds, otherwise its good for all ages. The animated version of Watership down is very good, not at all a children's movie that adults like, but also not entirely an adult movie kids can watch. If you read to your kids its a great book (though it doesn't have any female chars for the first 75%, not sure how little girls react to that, my experience has more to do with rope and tape than books and movies).

I think all these teen sex comedies aren't really the greatest for 6 and 7 year old girls.

I look foward to sharing Hayao Miyazaki movies with my kids should I ever have any, especially "My Neighbor Totoro" when they are very young.

Miyazaki's stuff is great. I'm trying to bring my daughter's up to be bilingual (Japanese & English), so they watch the Japanese version. That's also another reason I'm interested in movies for adults with a lot of conversation/humour rather than action.
