I don't know about you, but I think for the most part the genre of movie I tend to watch the most are those that are animal related....and I might add, and I don't mind admitting...the ones I cry over the most... Are you like that as well? A real softie, push-over with animal movies and cry your guts out over them? If so, name the movie or movies that get to you the most:MIne are:1. Fluke 2. The Journey Of Natty Gann 3. White Fang 4. The Bear 5. Two Brothers 6. Seabiscuit--yup even cry over this one 7. Fly Away Home 8, Greyfrier's Bobby (this is an oldie) 9. Turner and Hooch--that had to be the ugliest dog going but when it died--forget it I was a basket case 10. My dog skip There are probably some more--just cant' thing right now of them And even thought technically speaking this wasn't an "animal" movie...I think I'll include it on the list...the number one all time crying movie for me, even after all these years.......goes to ......E.T.

Lord yes! I love any kind of movies about animals. I like all the stupid dog movies like Beethoven, Benji, Ole Yeller. I enjoyed "Free Willy", "That Darn Cat", "Flica", "Black Beauty", "The Yearling", "So Dear to My Heart". (That's a real old one about harness racing.) I always watched Lassie and Rin Tin Tin on TV. Give me any kind of animal movie and I'm entranced!

Absolutely. Thomasina was a good one. There aren't too many movies about cats. Too hard to train them I guess.

I love animal related movies. One of my favorites is "Homeward Bound". That one makes me laugh and then cry and laugh again. It's great. Some others I love are: Paulie Zues and Roxanne Flipper K-9 Top Dog 101 Dalmations Cat from Outer Space That Darn Cat (the original. didn't like the remake) Oh Heavenly Dog! And I know there are so many more but there are a few that I know I love.
