Must See Movies to Share with the Kids

If there is one thing Mike and I know, its movies. We are excited to share many of these experiences with the kids as they mature. While the list of adult movies to share with them as teens is massive, here is a starter list of movies for the younger years (between now and about 13). This is based on our childhood favorites (so anything objectionable we feel the kids can handle, though Mike did watch much more R rated content than me). I hope to break this list up into age ranges eventually. For example, ones to watch when the kids are 6 and 4, or 10 and 8.

I've not included most popular of the Disney animated movies because the kids have already seen them.
