Sometimes when your an adult you miss being a kid, I miss being a kid sometimes, then I see a hot guy and I want to be an adult again.
But anyway, I use to watch Alvin and The Chipmunks(not the animated) the real cartoons when I was small and seeing this reminds me of my childhood. Cute movie that you can take your kids.

I used to watch the cartoon when I was a kid, and I still have a general love of cartoons. When it comes to great family-friendly movies though, you can't beat Pixar, Disney, or Miyazaki. But these horrible Dreamworks-style post-shrek CGI kids movies-with-attitude? The very thought makes me cringe. I guess they do good business, but if I were a parent, I'd try and bring my kid up with better quality entertainment. They keeping trying to re-imagine classic characters in ways relevant to modern audiences, but that basically amounts to dropping lots of iPod and Google references, and featuring one or more novelty pop dance sequences for no reason at all. In the past kid's movies had a timeless quality, they told epic stories with morals and heroics, like Dark Crystal or Labyrinth, but now most of them are very much cheap identikit stories full with lazy pop culture references that tire almost instantly unless you're eight. They're the children's equivalent of the Insert-Thing-Here Movie series (Scary, Date, Epic, Meet the Spartans, etc.).
In my opinion. |

Well to me that's a buch of nonsense. Kid movies ere kid movies. Even though I'm getting tired of animated movies, Kids love them. Personally I don't see anything wrong with movies like these. Time has changed, kids don't ware to hear the normal old fairytales, they want creativity, something fresh out fo the box. Like my niece who is 5 once said "I don't want to see Cinderella, we all know the girl is treated bad she then finds love and gets married, the end, I want to see Garfield". Many of those movies are rated PG, as a parent if you feel PG s too much for your kids then that's just the parents way of raising their child. But that doesn't parents who let their 5 year olds watch PG movies are doing something wrong. Just make sure you are there with them to make sure nothing is wrong. Oh well back on topic please. Here's this movie that I didn;t get to see but I heard it is really sad:

my favorate film of all time is still the Lion King.. I love films of all types and all genres, but i agree with guildy... Movie makers are just getting lazy nowadays and shoving the same story down our throats from twenty different abgles.... |

Hey, for the record, I'm not against all modern kids movies, nor am I suggesting all old kids movies were better. I'm saying it's a worrying trend. Look at Wall-E last year, by far my favourite movie of the year, that was a kids movie that had a complex story, and was extremely challenging in Hollywood terms simply because the main character doesn't speak. And yet, huge success. Why? Because kids are smarter than people realise. There's room for smart stories, interesting characters, and taking a chance on an interesting idea, but those movies are few and far between.
The Lion King is a good example. It's got stunning 2D animation, and a timeless story (often cited as being Hamlet - but in fact it goes back to Egyptian mythology) retold in a colorful exciting way, with inexplicably great ORIGINAL music.
Never saw My Sister's Keeper, but I'm all for a bit of that. I think it's healthy for children to have a bit of that in amongst all the safe entertainment of Shrek and Pirates of the Caribbean. Just don't show them Grave of the Fireflies, you'll destroy their childhoods forever. |

It's very likely the saddest movie ever made. |

That trailer is full of INCREDIBLE factual errors. The Mayan's were not the earliest civilisation by anyone's reckoning, and besides that 2012 in the Mayan long count calendar is the end of the calendar's numbers, and simply resets it to 0. Happens every 394 years. It's not of the entire world at all - that's a hokey new-age myth. This trailer just looks like The Day After Tomorrow 2. |

Before 7 lbs. came out, the trailer for it was stupid. Infact, I didn't really get what the title meant. 7 I get, Everything had to do with 7, but pounds? |
