Movies you enjoyed when you were a child.

I have lots of memories of movies from when I was a kid. Most of my memories are of watching westerns and war movies with my dad. Lately, I’ve been trying to think of the movies that I would like to show my kids that I enjoyed when I was a kid. There are many movies that I want to show my kids eventually, but here I’m interested in movies enjoyed as a kid. Here are a few of them with comments:

The Neverending Story: I watched this movie with my daughter about a year ago. She was 4 at the time. It was still good. It was slow in parts, but my daughter liked it.

The Dark Crystal: I fast-forwarded through most of this movie with my daughter. It was much, much darker than I remembered. It was also very slow in parts.

The Muppet Movie: A great movie with a fun kid’s soundtrack. My daughter liked it. I still like it.

D.A.R.Y.L.: A movie about a robot boy. I remember really liking it when I was a kid. I haven’t shown it too my daughter yet. I’m not sure that she would like it.

Cloak and Dagger: A boy who witnesses a murder and uncovers some kind of spy plot involving a video game cartridge. I haven’t seen it in a long, long time, but I remember enjoying it when I was a kid. Maybe it was because my parents refused to buy a video game system for the family.

E.T.: I remember seeing E.T. in the theater. My sister took off all of her clothes in the theater for some reason. Don’t ask me why. She was 3. I owned the soundtrack on one of those records with a different scene from the movie printed on each side.

That’s it for now. Do you recall any movies that you really enjoyed as a child?
