You've got quite a few in there I'm a fan of too...Mighty Ducks, Homeward Bound, Hocus Pocus, Lion Witch and the Wardobe (a fave book of mine), ANY Muppet movie (though I know they're not all Disney), both Princess Diaries movies, The Santa Clause movies, Holes, Witch Mountain movies...elizabethswann wrote:This is going to be a loooooong list for me. Bear with me on this.
Return to Oz, Flight of the Navigator, Escape to Witch Mountain/Return from Witch Mountain, Honey, I Shrunk the Kids, The Mighty Ducks trilogy (my all-time favorite), The Santa Clause, Hocus Pocus, Heavyweights, Homeward Bound: The Incredible Journey The Muppet Christmas Carol, Muppet Treasure Island, 101 Dalmatians, George of the Jungle, Inspector Gadget, The Princess Diaries 1-2, Holes, Pirates of the Caribbean (though I'm more into the first two), The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.... and that's it.
I mentioned these movies earlier too...and that we recently found Something Wicked on DVD and had to buy it!mindflipper wrote:Arete: no one ever brings up the Watcher in the Woods or Something Wicked This Way Comes! Of the old films, SWTWC was one of my favorites. Pryce was creepy and frightening as Mr. Dark, and yet so comical when he showed up in my other newer, favorite live-action film, POTC: the Black Pearl.
Watcher in the Woods was a good attempt, just didn't make it all the way. Like so many Disney films, good story and good stars - just couldn't make a good film with all that. Shame.
No biggie...there's been so many movies I like, they kind of all mush together I suppose...mindflipper wrote:Ouch! You're right, MmeLeota! I wasn't paying attention!
I got it on DVD too (as well as own the LD to show you how old I am!) - and just recently got the James Horner soundtrack that was released on CD just a few months ago.
It probably helped me that my brother and I are only a year apart. We generally watched together all the Disney movies we could get our hands on at the rental place. He loved The Black Hole as well as TRON; I was definitely more partial to TRON. Even now Maximilian from TBH gives me the willies.MmeLeota wrote:Oh yes...TRON! I have to admit, I liked it better the older I got...As a kid, it was more of a "boys" movie to me.
I liked them as a kid because they were spooky. I'd lie in our basement family room with the lights off right in front of the tv. I saw SWTWC on DVD last year and had to buy it right then.mindflipper wrote:Arete: no one ever brings up the Watcher in the Woods or Something Wicked This Way Comes!
