I totally was in love with a lot of the Disney movies, Brave Little Toaster, Lady and the Tramp, Little Mermaid. But I also enjoyed a lot of random horror movies too. I just can't remember all the movies I used to love so much, but I do have a long list of Disney movies I plan on getting eventually, lol

Did you see a live show? Or did you watch the movie in a not public place?
If yes to the latter, you were spared...

That is too cute, Jul!a! Dunno why he laughed though... I know I would've done the same
I think I still have the VHS... don't think I have a working VHS player anymore though, lol.
If only Netflix had it on instant! *sigh*

He laughed because he thought it was too cute too, lol. I'm hoping for a DVD of it, because I think that would be sooooo freaking awesome!

Omg, I can't believe I'm just remembering about The Nightmare Before Christmas. One of my absolute favorites, one of the only movies I can watch over and over again, and the only movie (besides Fantasia) I've ever considered getting a tattoo of, and if I do, it will be a whole sleeve.

I forgot about Princess Bride, that is an all time favorite of mine as well. I also watched the Monty Python movies all the time.

JR, I believe "amazingawesomefu lexcellent" is the perfect word to describe watching movies on Netflix via Wii

Unfortunately, my Wii didn't follow me to college

LOL, I saw Rocky Horror for the first time when I was 10 (very liberal parents) and have loved it ever since. I didn't think anyone but me would consider that a movie from their childhood
