I do, and so does my husband. We like a lot of Disney movies, so this holiday season we're going to watch Enchanted , The Santa Clause 3 and the Bee movies. What about you, do you watch children's movies?

Personally, my husband and I Love some of the Classic childrens movies, and tend to buy them, and watch them over and over again. We have many favorites, but one of our all time favorites is Shrek. We want to see The Bee Movie, and Santa Clause 3, but will probably have to wait until these come to video as we do not have the time or money to go and see these in the theater.

We may have to wait for them to come out on video because the lack of time, but I would love to see them in theater - they are so much better on the big screen.

I love children movies and I would really enjoy watching them especially if it is made by Walt Disney. The good thing about children movies is that they are suitable for the whole family and we can learn lots of things from watching them.

I love watching children's movies. I still love to watch the old disney classics, I think they are the best. But I'm really looking forward to seeing Enchanted (such a cute idea) and I also want to see the Bee movie. I think childrens movies are so fun to watch because they take you back to being a kid, and besides they always have happy endings, humor, and usually if its Disney some romance throw in too. Who doesn't like that?

It depends on the movie. Disney and Touchstone have really good kids movies. I can't stand the really cheesy ones. One of my all time favorite movies is Cars. Actually any of the Pixar movies top my list of favorites. We got Rattatoille for my 5yo's birthday at the beginning of the month and it was great. I want to get them Shrek 3 for Christmas. Shrek 2 was one of my favorites.

I'm not a big fan of Cars,but I agree that Pixar is definetly on top of my movie list.

I own a ton of kids movies. Most movies are not made just for children as parents must take children to go see them so there are typically jokes in there that are over the childs head and intended for the parents to notice and laugh. I love kids movies. I'd like to get The Santa Clause 3 on DVD since I have the first two. I'll probably see the other two you mentioned eventually, but I don't go to the movies much.

Yeah, some movies have a lot of adult content that goes over the kids heads and that makes them pretty darn appealing to us. Thanks for posting.

I was pretty much raised on Disney; Aladdin, lion King, Snow White, Little Mermaid. I'll love the movies I grew up with forever.

I was raised watching, the sword in the stone, dumbo, bed knobs and broom sticks. They were all re-runs but still loved them.

I like to watch children's movies. My favorite is Anne of Green Gables. It is about an orphan, Anne who was adopted by an elderly brother and sister (Matthew and Marilla). It is full of humor,love and tenderness. This movie can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great family movie. The DVD run time is 250 minutes (over 4 hours), so it is too long for me to give a full summary here. If you want to read the entire summary, you can visit my profile for a link to the full review.

I think children's films are some of the best lol. Especially Disney films. I cant pick one fave but I love Cinderlla, Beauty and The Beast, The Little Mermaid, Aladdin, Emperors New Groove, The Tigger Movie and Toy Story. I like it when a children's film has humour in for adults to, like Shrek. Then of course there are the classics which are probably more family films really such as Wizard of Oz and Charlie and The Chocolate Factory.

Oh, I have to agree that Disney takes the gold for children's movies. They just always have that magic.

i watch them and enjoy them very much lol! actually everybody in my household enjoys the Disney movies..and all the other animated movies out in recent years. from the 12yr old girl, 33 and 84 females and even the sole 55yr old male! and like you we cant wait to see the Bee movie and Enchanted AND the Santa Clause 3 movie! lol the only problem is trying to find the time when everybody is available..not to mention the price of theater tickets..hmm perhaps we will just rent a bunch of xmas classics instead!

In our household it's just my husband, our 13 month old boy and myself and it's hard with just us to find the time to watch movies, I can only imagine how difficult it must be for you.

My hubby and I both love cartoons. I should say I love cartoons and my hubby loves animes. I believe we love watching children's movies/cartoons more than they do just kidding. But, yeah I miss watching those old time favorite of mines like the old strawberry shortcake and smurfs. That is one of the reason why I started to make a blog so that I can watch and streamline those cartoons for my kids to watch. At the same time, I also have it so even the parents can watch too. Instead of going into different sites for a whole mess of things I only have cartoons on my site. They to me are great cartoons. If you want to check it out it's on Cartoon4umaniacs.blogspot.com don't forget the http:// symbol too hehe. Enjoy...
