what was your favourite film growing up?

i've got this on box set. i watched all of it in one day a few years back. it was fab, very nostalgic:D

i loved the little mermaid too, my husband bought it for me on dvd last year for my birthday, i was really happy. but now my 4 year old daughter loves it too :)
 
Mine would have to be My Girl too :o:o First time my dad took me to the cinema, it was full, so we had to watch some Star Trek film:( Thankfully we got to go again a few days later! I still love My Girl, it's my favourite film:p
 
Afraid mine are really obvious.

Star Wars, Empire and Return
Superman the Movie and Superman 2
Raiders of the Lost Ark

Had all the Star Wars toys, loaRAB of superhero toys, but when I was a kid there were no Raiders toys :(
 
Charlie & The Chocolate Factory
Annie
Swallows & Amazons
Famous Five (not technically a film I know but I had a lot of the videos).
Most Disney films
 
Oh just remembered The Aristocats.
Loved it. Knew all the worRAB to all the songs.
In fact, 30+ years on, I bet if someone played Everybody wants to be a Cat, I'd still join in and be word perfect!
Meow:D
 
'Return to Oz'

No contest at all. An absolute under-rated masterpiece. I still watch it to this day and thinks it's brilliant. Wonderfully dark and scary which i loved when i was a kid.

Followed by 'Labryinth' 'Neverending Story' 'The Goonies' 'Princess Bride' 'The Black Cauldron' 'Willow' and 'The Dark Crystal'. All amazing kiRAB films.
 
Being of the older (cough! cough!) generation, my favourites were the musicals

The King and I - I saw this about 6 times, I had a thing about Yul Brynner.
Oklahoma
Carousel
South Pacific

and all the Disney films of course.
 
Two - neither of them particularly 'kiddie'

- El Dorado - I loved John Wayne westerns growing up and watched this more times than I know annd can still quote many a line

- Blues Brothers -loved this movie

Others...

- The Great Escape
- Star Wars
- Anything with Bette Davis or Joan Crawford - I was obsessed with them both and remember practicing walking like Bette for hours - yep I was strange kid
