Hello MyLotters!!!
I recently started gathering unwanted items around the house to have a yard sale this summer. I need more room, as my kids are growing and if you are a parent, you know just how quickly they grow out of their clothes and do away with their old toys. Any left over items get donated to local homeless shelters.
So, I was looking through all of the old movies we have and I thought, wow, there are so many I just don't want to get rid of because they bring back memories you know?
My list of favorite movies are...
1. Now and Then (reminds me of my childhood)
2. Beetle Juice (reminds me of my silly brother)
3. Steal Magnolias (I love Julia Roberts!)
4. Pretty Woman (See, I told ya!)
5. Twister (Hey, I grew up in the south..haha)
6. Finding Nemo ( Ellen degeneres is too funny!)
7. A Walk To Remember (I support the Lukemia Foundation)
8. The Wizard Of Oz (There's no place like home!)
9. Girl Interruped (I am majoring in psychology.)
10. Where The Heart Is (Such a sad story)
Which movies make the top 10 on your list of "favorite movies" ?
Or, do you just have that one favorite movie that you watch over and over again?
Thanks for reading! I love movie night with my kiddos!

Hello Backhome21096!
A Walk To Remember is also one of my favorite movies as well. I especially love the relationship between both actors. It shows just what true love really means! I remember also watching Spaceballs as a kid but didn't really get into it. Maybe as an adult I should look that one up and see if my views have changed. In Love and War is also an awesome movie! Thanks for reminding me of a few other favorites I forgot about until now. Have a great day!

You're welcome. I also remember the words,'Love is like the wind, I can see it, but I can feel it' in A Walk to Remember. O yes, I remember the movie 'The Princess of Montpensier' is also very exciting:)

Hello luckyblue,
I like your input, because I am also an adult that loves Disney movies! My kids and I have movie night on Modays, and our favorites are Finding Nemo, Shrek 1, 2, and 3, Beauty and The Beast, Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs, 101 Dalmations, All Dogs Go To Heaven, Lilo and Stitch, Cars 1 and 2, Little Red Riding Hood, etc. We have them all! I'm serious, their are over 1200 movies, mostly all Disney.
My son, as many little boy are, is very much into super hero movies. His number one favorite has to be a tie between Spiderman and Ironman. Yet, he also loves Power Rangers as well, so there is a huge collection of movies for them too. I was never a movie fan until I had kids. Now, I cannot get enough simply because it's quality time and laughter that I get to spend with them! Yes, that's the best part of all!

Wow, this is a great list! I forgot about the movie, Fight Club. My cousins use to watch it all the time. I am also into tons of different flavors when it comes to movies. My kids recently bought the Transformers new release and we are waiting for the new Spiderman! So many movies..we need to take more time to go see some. Thanks for sharing your list of favorite movies!

Well, from the list that you have provided, I could see one on y list and tht would be.. A Walk To Remeber. I like to watch movies but from among all, " The Count of Monte Cristo" would be the top on my list. I think you have alred seen it and I do hope you like it too. If not, then I suggest you should watch it.

Hello! Yes, I also love A Walk To Remember. Their love was so pure and honest wasn't it? It's so very sweet when he builds a telescope too! I wish I knew how to create one but that woould take a lot of time and work. I will add the movie you suggested to my list. I have learned about so many movies today, and I may go to the rental store here to see if I can find some of them. Thanks for your input!

Hello ramyarsoj,
I am so happy that you have listed the movie, Wall-E! I forgot about this one, and I also agree! It's an absolutely fantistic movie! My kinds loved it so much, so i also bought the the VSmile game to go with it. You have a wonderful list and would get along well with my son, as he is also a huge fan of Spiderman! Yet, his list would have listed the series first..hehe! Thanks for sharing your favorite movies with me. Avatar is also a good one. Have a great weekend!
