I do, in fact I've got an old Barbie movie on YouTube in another tab, and I've watched Barbie of Swan Lake and Barbie as Thumbelina so far this week, great movies.

How about you lot?

    I don't think of them as for kids but I suppose they are ๐Ÿ˜Š๐Ÿ˜.

    I love Alvin and the Chipmunks (Alvin, Simon and Theodore) and the Chipettes, Brittany, Eleanor and Jeanette. I even have excerpts on my mobile of favourite moments including them singing 'Only You'..... SO CUTE ๐Ÿ˜.

    Favourite films I watch a lot are ET, Babe plus Babe: Pig in the City; Sound of Music; Mary Poppins.... I could go on......and on..... ha ha.

    I actually still watch them too, especially films like Hotel Transylvania and Shrek. Theyโ€™re just really fun and comforting to watch.

    I hope you aren't disappointed. I very much regretted watching Peter Jackson's Lord of the Rings efforts. As for The Hobbit, I won't even comment!

    This is my big worry. The only film I've enjoyed after reading the book is The Green Mile โ€ฆ should say, sobbed as much ๐Ÿ˜

    everything else has been a huge let down โ€ฆ

    I do now and again, but have to be in the mood for one. @PracticeWotUPreach The Hotel Transylvania's are great films โ˜บ๏ธ

    ET is a classic, 44 years later I still can't watch that bit where he "dies" on the Operating table without crying.

    Mary Poppins was also a classic, until certain people ruined the "magic" crying about the Chimney top sceneโ€ฆ.

    I love all the old Disney films, I didn't even mind the live action version of Snow White that came out just over a year ago, Beauty and the Beast was one of the best, but I just love seeing attractive ladies in Ball Gowns! Only thing with that was, as much as I adore Emma Watson, I didn't think she was quite pretty enough 9 years ago to be Belle, she looked great in the dress though.
