Bonus point if it's not Disney

I just finished watching The Parent Trap 1998 version. So no bonus points for me.

It's good and definitely enjoyable, but man it's sad to see Lindsay Lohan today when you look at stuff like this.

I watched this movie almost every day growing up. Excellent kids movie. It also has talking dogs and michael j fox in it.

Jack and the Beanstalk with Abbott and Costello. Excellent movie and vaguely Wizard of Oz'ish.

 

[Chuckl3s]

Watched this with my family the other night. Awesome movie. Very funny.

 

[VGChampion]

No bonus points but almost all the Disney Channel Original Movies. Those were great.

 

[Ultima_5]

Watched this with my family the other night. Awesome movie. Very funny.

[FloppyDelux]

first movies that came to mind

 

[daviyoung]

Cool Runnings
Muppet's Christmas Carol

Tenacious D's Pick of Destiny is like a family film, but it's peppered with non-kid-friendly stuff.

 

[echoshifting]

Watched Akeelah and the Bee last night with my 5-year old and found it just as engaging as I remembered it. My daughter loved it.

edit: Not Disney, +points!

 

[The Lamonster]

Elf.

 

[Espresso]

Any old Disney movie, really. The '40s - '60s were their golden years.

 

[LiK]

Anything with Fred Astaire or Gene Kelly.

Tenacious D's Pick of Destiny is like a family film, but it's peppered with non-kid-friendly parts.

Yeah...my ideal of a "family" movie doesn't involve cock push-ups.

 

[injurai]

Cool Runnings

YES!!!

 

[Bucket Mouse]

E.T
Home Alone
Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory
Mrs. Doubtfire
Back to the Future
Whistle Down the Wind

Best baseball movie ever.

[Boss Doggie]

Superior to the first film in many ways.

 

[Data West]

If Bad News Bears counts as a family film then

National Lampoon's Vacation

Representing the 1980's finest:

 

[Hilbert]

I am going with Milo and Otis!

 

[jett]

charming and endearing family fun! with eye-melting visuals.

 

[JohnTinker]

I am going with Milo and Otis!

when you discover how many cats & dogs died during filming, it isn't enjoyable at all

 

[ronito]

baseball movie of for-ev-uh

 

[daviyoung]

I remember this being quite fun, but it's probably terrible.

 

[ReturnOfTheRAT]

Millions

 

[Canis lupus]

The Godfather.

YES! YES! Love these three movies to death.

A modern Family friendly movie, that's very underrated, is Speed Racer.

See I'm not the only one.

 

[smothpocket]

Secondhand Lions for sure.

 

[Cat Party]

 

[AdventureMike]

Completely agree on Speed Racer.

It was a terrifically done movie that was completely underrated. I only wish I could have seen it in theatres. The visuals are just beyond anything I've seen in recent years.

 

[Hilbert]

I am aware of that, and I still enjoy it!

 

[Sylver]

Not sure if can be considered "family movie" but well it's on the same category the Goonies is.

 

[Boss Doggie]

Ah yes Speed Racer!

Need more 90s-present day though, since everyone's just picking up old stuff.

 

[Qasiel]

Uncle Buck

 

[Ultima_5]

Thought of some more.

 

[fallagin]

Mrs Doubtfire of course.

 

[bengraven]

Forever and ever.

 

[TEJ]

I thought the new muppets movie was utterly fantastic.

 

[Darklord]

I remember this being quite fun, but it's probably terrible.

It's a great movie. I loved it as a kid.

 

[To Far Away Times]

It's been mentioned a few times but Homeward Bound is a great one.

 

[JetBlackPanda]

 

[bjork]

Any of the old Pippi Longstocking movies. The real ones, not that 1988 disasterfuck of a movie.
