Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory (1971)

Great for kids, and the dry sarcastic humor is great for adults. All around great movie.

I amar prestar aen.

The world is changed.

Han matho ne nen.

I feel it in the water.

Han mathon ned cae.

I feel it in the earth.

A han noston ned gwilith.

I smell it in the air.

Much that once was is lost, for none now live who remember it.

Monty Python's Life of Brian.
Whoever doesn't like it can leave.

[โ€“] [email protected] 15 points 1 year ago (1 children)

I prefer the holy grail but life of Brian is also a top movie

Horrible Bosses.

Red Lights or Leaves of Grass.

The Incredibles or Megamind

Got Superheros? Check.

Got Supervillain? Check.

For kids? Check.

Fun for adult as well? Check.

Non-marvel/DC? Check.

It's perfect.

[โ€“] [email protected] 16 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Megamind. Just Megamind. The Incredibles is good, but Megamind is first class.

Evolution.

Haven't met anyone yet who hasn't loved that film.

[โ€“] [email protected] 6 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

That's the one with the aliens with the circular writing characters right?

edit: Oops nevermind, it's the dandruff shampoo commercial. Despite that its a decent movie, I agree.

Schindler's List. If they don't like it they're a Nazi. Eliminate. Cry because the movie is sad. Just vibes.

Put a webcam on TV and streaming it to TV

That sounds like the start of a horror movie

Rocky Horror Picture Show โ€” If they've seen it before they'll still love it, if they hate it they can leave

[โ€“] [email protected] 13 points 1 year ago (2 children)

I finally watched it. I left. Was probably best watched in its day.

[โ€“] [email protected] 10 points 1 year ago (2 children)

Best watched with a shadow cast and props.

Watched recently with my 8 year old and while it's certainly still a justifiable classic, there's still some things that are pretty problematic in this movie that made it a challenging watch with a kid...

[โ€“] [email protected] 47 points 1 year ago (3 children)

Like incest, sexual assault, voyeurism, terrorism, and time paradoxes?

[โ€“] [email protected] -5 points 1 year ago (1 children)

Right BTTF is well known for glorifying all of these things

I'll be damned, nobody mentioned Lord of the Rings.

Lock the doors and show them the Extended edition, followed by The Hobbit extended edition.

It's only 20 hours and 18 minutes.

Dead Leaves

Hot Tub Time Machine

[โ€“] [email protected] 11 points 1 year ago (7 children)

Its a really long movie but it's got everything. RRR

Its got bromances, romances, comedy and tragedy. It's got plenty of over the top action and musical dance numbers. 10/10 movie.

[โ€“] [email protected] 8 points 1 year ago

I randomly stumbled on that movie recently and I agree. What a fucking film. It does 100 things I would hate in an American movie but somehow they pull it all off in a priceless and charming way

[โ€“] [email protected] 2 points 1 year ago
