Five Movies you loved as a child...

Not in any order...

The Incredible Mr. Limpet
HG Wells Time Machine(1960)
Freak Friday(1976)
The Great Escape
Dirty Harry

I realize many of us were born in different decades. HG Wells Time Machine came out before I was born, but I loved it as child.

My mom would let me stay up late on weekends to watch movies. There was no cable TV in my early years so it was mostly old movies on after 11PM.

 

Not in order:

A Christmas Story. And TBS play's it for 24 hours on Christmas and I still watch one. Family member actually had a Leg Lamp.
It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World
Mr. Limpit for me too
Those stupid beach movies with Frankie Avalon and Annette F........
Those stupid scary movies with Vincent Price

 

Define childhood, I'm still living mine..........
Jason and the Argonauts
Mr. Limpet
the original Godzilla
Goldfinger
The Sandpebbles

 

All good ones. I forgot about Jason .... and The Sandpebbles. I dug McQueen in it.

 

We were in Taiwan when they were filming that.

 

Longest Day
Devil at 4 O'clock
The Alamo (with John Wayne, Lawrence Harvey, Richard Widmark)
Original Frankenstein, Wolfman and Dracula
The Russians are Coming

 

Hard to believe Star Wars hasn’t been mentioned

 

Star Wars, of course.

Tron

Mr. Limpet

Godzilla vs. Megalon

The Dark Crystal

 

American Beauty
Lost in Translation
Monster
Mystic River
Borat

 

The first movie I remember seeing was Star Wars. I was in 3rd grade and that movie became the whole world.


I remember Kiss Meets the Phantom of the Park. I really got into KISS after that. Which made me really want to play guitar.


One summer the twin theater near me had .99 double features during the week. My friends and I watched The Dark Crystal probably a dozen times that summer.


Clash of the Titans is another movie I watched seemingly on repeat as a kid.


I remember when I lived with my grandparents for a short while and my grandmother watched Blazing Saddles with me. She kept threatening to turn it off because of the language, but she was also laughing as much as I was. Somewhere in Junior high by then.

 

So many Limpet fans.

I loved the Don Knotts' movies.

 

11 and under.

Goldfinger. Nice. Sean Connery was the best Bond.
