Same deal as my tv show thread.

What were some of your favorite movies as children, and do they still hold up?

Movies I still love to this day...

The Princess Bride
E.T.
Ever After
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles 3 (it's really crappy, but I still love it)
All the Disney movies over the years (except Hercules)
Dragon Heart
The Secret Garden (1993)
Batman Returns
etc....(most of the movies I watched as a kid I still love and watch all the time now!)

Movies I enjoyes as a child that I can't stand now...

The Neverending Story films (they're the only ones I can think of at the moment)

How about you guys?
 
Movie I still love: Hook

Movie I now can't stand: Ace Ventura
 
I couldn't stand Hook when I saw it in the cinema, and I despise it even more now. Such self-indulgence from Spielberg, such trite, sickening sentimentalism. Awful film.
 
I watch The Wizard Of Oz every night when I go to bed. I just love it so much. I also still greatly enjoy the Addams Family movies and Who Framed Roger Rabbit.

Every night?

I used to watch Lois & Clark before going to sleep. So easy to watch.

Occasionally, I throw on Almost Famous (my favorite movie). But The Wizard Of Oz always make me feel calm and relaxed enough to achieve a good night sleep.
 
Heavyweights, Little Giants, Last Action Hero, The Sandlot, Ace Ventura, Bio-Dome ;), Jurassic Park, Hook, TMNT, Ghostbusters 1 and 2

Indiana Jones and Star Wars too, it was always some sort of an event when my dad would whip out the laser discs and we would watch all three in a row :)

Probably more, they'll come to me...
