Name a movie you loved when

[low-key]

you were under the age of 12


Fantastic Voyage It was about some guy who needed an operation and only hope for him to live was to shrink a few doctors and a submarine and inject them into body where they will begin work. I don't want to see it today, its probably fake and corny but at the time I thought it was the greatest thing ever. My buddy and I would go into my basement and build a fake sub and pretend we were shrunken inside a body doing medical procedures

 

[Gumbo4x4]

The Cowboys. All the men in town get gold fever, so Wil Andersen (John Wayne) has to hire local schoolboys to drive his cattle to market.

 

[Soldier's*Sweeties]

Little Monsters

Cocktail.... Weird, I know.

But Beauty and the Beast was, and still is a favorite.

 

[Disneylover99]

The Wizard of Oz - It came on tv once a year or so back in the 70's. No VCR's or taping it back then. You had to watch it.

 

[E&Cmom]

The Sound of Music...still love it.

 

[RedAngie]

Mary Poppins

 

[MamaBelle4]

Mary Poppins

STILL my favorite, always has been.

Rainbow Brite. Is that the name of that movie? And any Disney movie.

 

[jevs]

The Wizard of Oz, and still remains one of my favourites. It was on once a year and we all had to be on our best behaviour otherwise my mother wouldn’t let us watch it.

Sure, Jan. Yep, I believe that's why you liked Fantastic Voyage.

I know the real reason you went down to your basement.

Fantastic Voyage is still a great movie. It's a sci-fi classic!

Honestly, I don't know that I have any movies that I liked then but do not like now. I tend to be able to appreciate the cheesy or childish. My favorites when I was under 12 were Traansformers The Movie, Oliver and Company, (yep, it was the 80s), The Last Starfighter, and of course Star Wars. I still enjoy all of these. You might find the visual effects in Fantastic Voyage a littel quaint today, but for the time they were brilliant.

Annie (the 1982 version). I still remember all the words to those songs!
