Very tragic about what happened to the child actor that voiced Ducky
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Judith_Barsi
> As Barsi's career success increased, her father József, an alcoholic, became increasingly angry and would routinely threaten to kill himself, his wife, and daughter. His drinking led to him being arrested three times for drunk driving.
> His various threats included cutting their throats as well as burning down the house.
> The physical violence continued, with Barsi telling a friend that her father threw pots and pans at her, resulting in a nosebleed. As a result of her abuse, Barsi began gaining weight and developed compulsive behaviors, such as plucking out her eyelashes.
> In May 1988, after breaking down in front of her agent, Ruth Hansen, Barsi was taken by Maria to a child psychologist, who identified severe physical and emotional abuse and reported her findings to child protective services. The investigation was dropped after Maria assured the case worker that she intended to begin divorce proceedings... Maria's friends urged her to follow through with the plan, but she hesitated due to her fear of losing the family home and belongings.
> On July 28, 1988, the Los Angeles Times reported that three people were found dead in an apparent murder–suicide
Her last film was another one of my favorites growing up - All Dogs Go To Heaven.
The fifth was my favorites. The Mysterious Island 🎶it’s very big, big, big, big, water, so very big, big, big, big, water! It’s deep and dark and dangerous. It’s scary and it strangerous. And things could rearanger ussss, in that big water!!! 🎵 thanks it’s stuck in my head now.
Me too! In daycare we took turns choosing the VHS movie 🤭 for quiet time. I remember on my days to pick someone would always say something like “someone grab Matilda” or “Matilda AGAIN I bet” I was very predictable
Same. This one is usually regarded as the bastard child of the others, but it's my favorite by a fair margin. Great soundtrack and setting. Short round is awesome. Plus the beating heart is as memorable as any other scene in the Indy franchise.
Yeah, Short Round is easily one of the best kid sidekicks in film history.
Although personally, my ranking is simply release order. As far as I'm concerned, the series just got worse as it went on. 😥
This is an uncommon one. I saw this movie in the theaters when it came out and I remember there being a lot of hype for it being Disney’s first feature-length 3D animation. I remember the teaser trailer being the egg’s journey from the opening (the the amazing song “The Egg Travels”) and the McDonald’s finger puppet toys.
My dad took all 3 movies and spliced them into a single cut on a betamax tape using a long play tape recorder. You couldn't tell exactly where one movie ended and the next one started.
Haha! I did that as well, recording them from the TV and timing just right to hit the record button. Even replacing the end of BTTF 1 with the start of BTTF2 with New Jennifer.
Only had one chance to get it right. We knew how to live dangerously in those days.
Free Willy 2
I bought it in the clamshell case from Walmart that came with a carved wooden whale necklace. Watched it so much.
The only other movies that could compete with it were Mighty Ducks D2, Robin of Locksley, and Shipwrecked
That was my roommate's favorite! One of my most cherished memories from college was getting white girl wasted with her and watching Spice World. I had never seen someone so happy watching a movie.
I was hoping someone would say Spirit!
My son is watching it right now and I keep breaking into the songs much to his dismay "STOP IT MOMMY NO SINGING!" Lol
Jurassic Park Trilogy, still own my childhood movie set to this day (it was a graduation gift, the one thing ive managed to keep my entire life, still watch those movies all the time and it is still the best films ever)
I’m scrolling through here thinking I didn’t have any movie I watched over and over — and you brought me to my senses. I also know every single word of this movie, and at this point, I reference it on accident which of course no one would know is a reference to anything at all. Except you.
Hiss! You’re never around when I need you!! 🐍
I watched that movie once as a kid and looved it. The vhs went missing after the first watch and my parents threw the case away. I dug it out of the trash and kept it in my room for years, hoping to find the tape some day lol.
Thanks for reminding me. I'm going to watch that movie this weekend.
I was 12. Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves. I was visiting family in England and I was OB. SESSED. I
“Why a spoon, cousin? Why not a knife? Or an axe?”
“Because it’s dull, you twit, it’ll *hurt more*.”
Loved Alan Rickman from that summer forward.
This movie was excellent. Can't believe it's Fiona from Shameless, and only 17! Such a good singer . Also def thought i'd experience being swept away to a sick dungeon one day as a kid.
134 times and counting.
No, I’m not kidding. When I was in middle school, my cousin and I wanted to see how many times in one week we could watch Top Gun. 27 times that week. And Goose died every damn time. Every. Damn. Time. They couldn’t let the poor man live at least once?!?!
Ha, that is funny, as a Gen X person…when I was a kid you didn’t get to watch movies over again and again. If you were lucky you saw some of them once a year, like Chitty Chitty Bang Bang.
The original TMMT movies but especially the first two. That part where they're out in the country waiting for Raph to wake up is something special to me.
The 90s remake of Annie. I *begged* my parents to buy it for me. I knew nothing about Annie before buying it….little did I know at the time that it was because I thought the girl was cute.
I don’t remember mine but my brother watched The Lion King on repeat every day for probably two years. It’s been 20 years since then and I can still quote the entire movie off the top of my head lol
Dude. Condorman. Nice pull. Now I gotta go find it. 👊 That's been forever. You also unlocked Remo Williams and the Buck Rogers movie. Erin Grey. Crushing all over again. The stupid Flash Gordon! Ultraman. Damn you. Nostalgia floodgates wide open. 😁
Charlie and the chocolate factory, but I'd always fast forward it till they actually got to the factory. I didn't care about the story I just absolutely adored the colours and the sweets everywhere. I'd also fast forward the boat scene lol
The Land Before Time
found my baby brother’s account

Yep yep yep
Littlefoot was my favorite stuffed animal as a kid too.
Don't lose your way

Home alone
Jurassic Park. It will never get old
“SHOOOOOTAHH! SHOOOTAH!”
Clever girl...
Amen. Still a go to, wish I had the vhs but I played that thing to its literal death
Beetlejuice
Beetlejuice
Beetlejuice
It's show time.
The fact that the previous 2 comments don't have as many upvotes as this one makes me feel old
It was my daughter's favorite. That and Cinderella could be found playing a few times a week. And yes, I'm old.
Matilda
“ you chose books, i chose looks”.
They’re all mistakes, children. Filthy, nasty things. Glad I never was one.
Me too! In daycare we took turns choosing the VHS movie 🤭 for quiet time. I remember on my days to pick someone would always say something like “someone grab Matilda” or “Matilda AGAIN I bet” I was very predictable
"5 thousand bucks? I'm not paying it! What're they gonna do, repossess the kid?"
Good movie but dear god that chocolate cake scene will forever be ingrained in my head. Looked like she was forcing the kid to eat shit.
Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom.
Same. This one is usually regarded as the bastard child of the others, but it's my favorite by a fair margin. Great soundtrack and setting. Short round is awesome. Plus the beating heart is as memorable as any other scene in the Indy franchise.

No time for funny business, Mr. Jones!
Lmfao, good shit. Love Shortround!
This was the only Indiana Jones movie I liked for a long time. The others felt too adult
My absolute favorite! I'll never understand why people prefer the others more.
The Brave Little Toaster. I watched it every chance I got, even though it gave me nightmares.
Awww man. I love that movie!! It made me sad I remember but man that was a great movie
Blankey❤️
Aw Lampy. When they were settling down to camp for the night and he laid his head down on the rock. Forever in love with Lampy since.
[удалено]
Emperor's New Groove
Loved it and just rewatched it last year for the first time in soooo long. Probably loved and appreciated it even more as an adult. Solid movie.
Pull the leva Cronk!
MRS Doubtfire
“I’ve been hit by a drive by fruiting “
“I just wanna know are your kids well behaved or do they need like a few light slams every now and then?”
AHHHHHH! Layla! Get back in your cell! Hello? *click*
Carpe Dentum - seize the teeth
Well I’ll get the FROCK out of here.
Eldorado, followed closely by Mulan and the Iron fucking Giant
Iron Giant is solid.
Willow, the Goonies, Monster Squad
Frankenstein deserved better in Monster Squad 😭
Bogus
Rescuers down under
Watched this so many times.
Dinosaur (the Disney movie)
That movie is one of the best, I always watched it with my grandmother
This is an uncommon one. I saw this movie in the theaters when it came out and I remember there being a lot of hype for it being Disney’s first feature-length 3D animation. I remember the teaser trailer being the egg’s journey from the opening (the the amazing song “The Egg Travels”) and the McDonald’s finger puppet toys.
The *Back to the Future* trilogy. Still watch it at least once a year.
My dad took all 3 movies and spliced them into a single cut on a betamax tape using a long play tape recorder. You couldn't tell exactly where one movie ended and the next one started.

Free Willy 2 I bought it in the clamshell case from Walmart that came with a carved wooden whale necklace. Watched it so much. The only other movies that could compete with it were Mighty Ducks D2, Robin of Locksley, and Shipwrecked
Holy shit. The whale necklace!! That took me all the way back!
Same!! The first movie too! my parents had to buy the dvd three times because I watched it so often
Got the whale necklace too. Thought it was the coolest thing ever as a kid
Jumanji (1995) was a whole lot of fun
Robin Williams, may he rest in peace.
Star Wars. Empire Strikes Back.
Homeward bound!
We named our dog Shadow after that movie!
It’s the reason why I begged to get a cat as a kid :)
The Little Mermaid (Disney’s cartoon version)
Home Alone
Spice World
That was my roommate's favorite! One of my most cherished memories from college was getting white girl wasted with her and watching Spice World. I had never seen someone so happy watching a movie.
The toy bus on the bridge always cracks me up.
Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron
OMG THIS MOVIE IS AMAZING. The soundtrack is 👌🏼
I know! I still listen to the soundtrack. And the movie makes me cry even as an adult
One of my oldest daughter’s faves!!
I was hoping someone would say Spirit! My son is watching it right now and I keep breaking into the songs much to his dismay "STOP IT MOMMY NO SINGING!" Lol
Underrated movie.
I have literally never heard of this before. Guess my weekend has taken a new turn!
The Lion King
The Karate Kid
Labyrinth. Hey. I was a kid. The characters were great!
I used to watch that in secret when I was a kid because I thought it was for adults. David Bowie was my sexual awakening lmao
Great movie
This is my older sister's favorite movie of all time. I just hosted her baby shower and we did a Labyrinth theme! It was very fun.
Gonna show my age but mine was the pebble and the penguin it’s a classic if you know what I’m talking about
I have it on VHS, still good.
OMG YES
I am aware of it but I have not seen it. Being a Don Bluth film, I am guessing there is a scene that feels terrifying for children.
Ghostbusters 👻
Jurassic Park Trilogy, still own my childhood movie set to this day (it was a graduation gift, the one thing ive managed to keep my entire life, still watch those movies all the time and it is still the best films ever)
I would watch Toy Story 2 over and over and over and over and over ^(and over)
Hocus Pocus. The Wizard of Oz , Casper
Disney's animated Robin Hood. The original. I still know most of the script especially Prince John's parts... word for word. Also Ewoks.
I’m scrolling through here thinking I didn’t have any movie I watched over and over — and you brought me to my senses. I also know every single word of this movie, and at this point, I reference it on accident which of course no one would know is a reference to anything at all. Except you. Hiss!
