I agree with those that advocate Back to the Future I and II. NOT III. (Clara?!

)

I'll think of more later.

Be careful, I was crushed when my 5 year old didn't like this holiday classic

I would never let my (future) children watch a Tom Cruise film.

Even Top Gun?

3 ninjas

Tried to watch this recently. Very annoying. They say "HIYA" every single time they do a karate move. Used to watch it all the time as a kid, but had to turn it off as an adult.

My boys (8 & 11) made fun of me relentlessly when I showed them this year. "Dad, you actually thought this was good?!?! The effects are terrible." I especially remember the 8 year old saying "Dad, you know what my favorite part was? When it was over."

That said, Independence Day, Indiana Jones, Star Wars, LOTRs are all huge hits with them. Huge.

Dark Crystal.

That movie freaked me out as a kid. So did Labyrinth.

Watched Labyrinth as a kid. Freaked me out big time.

I think poor hemmy has a hard time separating reality from entertainment. He's probably glad Heath Ledger died because he was evil and wanted to kill everybody and he hates Jerry Maguire because he's an eccentric Scientologist.

I just don't financially support people I don't like.
