What's you're favorite "non scary" movie?

I personally love Lilo & Stitch as well as Finding Nemo. Those are my kind of aliens.
I also like Kate & Leopold, & the Lake House. Austin Powers movies I like, too.

I'm a dork. I watch either Lilo & Stitch or Finding Nemo as I go to bed every night! I know those movies by heart now!


Then again I've enjoyed & watched movies like Underworld, Interview with the Vampire, Queen of the Troublemakers(I'll censor the name like that just in case)--the last two are Anne Rice novels made into movies. I want to see th new movie Blood & Chocolate....I read that book as well!

The Lost Boys, The Outsiders, any Brat Pack movie, Sybil (I guess you could say it is a "scary" movie, more of a psychological thriller, I'd say), Ghost World, Stand By Me, The Exorcist, The Shining, Mean Creek, The Woodsman.. I'm probably forgetting a few. I guess some of those are scary, but not as scary/gory as something like Saw or Hostel.

ETA: Some other favourites of mine are basically any "old" Disney movie, Finding Nemo, October Sky, D.A.R.Y.L (
), National Lampoon's Animal House, Heathers, National Lampoon's Vacation ("I think I broke my nose. I stabbed my brain. I just got my period"), Monty Python stuff.

I like pretty much any movie genre.

I do still watch a ton of Disney movies. My favorite probably being The Lion King. Baby Simba is just too cute
I also enjoyed Lilo and Stitch ans well as Finding Nemo.. i have all of them on DVD, and watch them whenever I am in the mood for them.
We actually have a book shelf stand dedicated to Disney movies. With my mum having 4 kids, going back 24 years, we have gathered up quite a few disney movies


Though my favorite movies have got to be comedy and thriller/horror.

Now I want to watch Lion King!

Oh, another movie I like is Matilda. I haven't seen it since I was little but I still get scared when I think of the part when the evil teacher puts Matilda in that closet thing with huge pointy nails in the door.

Probably Finding Nemo. That was the first movie my wife and I ever saw together after we started going out so it holds alot of memories for us, plus it's just a great movie.

Now I want to go watch it...I think I just may

I like Finding Nemo too.

I don't watch the Lion King because it is sad.

And I don't like to watch Bambi, The Fox and the Hound, and I NEVER NEVER NEVER watch Old Yeller. These are to sad to watch.

Most Disney movies - esp Aladdin and Beauty and the Beast, and the 2004 version of Phantom of the Opera (movie based on the musical).

I love musicals. I like to sing along.

I just love the movie "About a Boy". I also really like 'Love Actually' even if it's slightly schmaltzy.

My fav disney movie is Alice in Wonderland.

OMG! I watch so many movies - two of my favorite funny movies are Best In Show and Waiting for Guffman. I love all the Merchant Ivory films, most all of Cary Grant and Audrey Hepburn movies, etc. I thoult it would be fun to have a movie forum and share movies that we have just seen - good or bad.
