How can you not like Home Alone? The first two were great and are classics, but the others really did suck.

I watched the Home Alone movies growing up and I enjoyed them as a kid, but that doesn't necessarily make them good movies. Now they're just obnoxious.

Nightmare Before Christmas is my favorite movie on the list and I was in love with it before the goths claimed it theirs

I wouldn't really consider Tokyo Godfathers a kid flick... I'd call it a drama before I'd call it a kid flick. I don't think young kids would understand most of it. But eh whatever.
