movies you loved when you were a kid, but on viewing it a second time....

Pokémon The First Movie. It's still nostalgic and makes me cry an unholy amount but it's pretty stupid.

This kind of question really brings out generational differences. When I was a kid in the 60s, they always played The Wizard of Oz around Christmas. First time I saw it, it scared the hell out of me. Had nightmares about those flying monkeys. Time passed, and I watched the movie again in my mid 20s. Boy, was I surprised when Dorothy opens the door to Oz ... and it's in color. It was like rediscovering it. I've watched in on the big screen in a restored movie palace (the Stanford Theatre in Palo Alto, CA). I've played it for my son. My nieces. Kids of my friends. They always love it ... at a certain age. Then they grow up and they're too sophisticated for it. And then they come back to it when they want to be a kid again.

Great answer, but "Pay no attention to [YOU]... "

I loved it all!

I loved Christmas Story as a kid and as I get older it only gets better.

i saw the ring (japanese version) and when i saw it for second time, i think just average horor movie...

yes, Christmas Story is a timeless classic. no offense, but that one doesn't even belong here. even the "sequal" was good, even though they changed the entire cast(except the narrator). that one was the opposite. hated it the first time i seen it, i think mainly because of the cast, but seen it recently and it's actually pretty good. oh, and how sweet is it that they are remaking The Last Dragon? and Clash of the Titans? can't wait to see that one. and even The Wizard of Oz. i don't really know how to feel about that one, but clash of the titans was definately due for a remake.

There was a movie called "The Barbarian Brothers"

Loved it as a kid...now yuck.

i re-watched who framed roger rabbit recently on HD and time has not been nice to it

really? i havn't watched it for awhile, so i can't confirm or deny, but i can almost replay the whole movie in my head, and i still like who framed roger rabbit.

A film called Warlock with Julian Sands and Richard E Grant.

Remember it being awesome then watched it a few years ago and couldn't believe
how awful it was.

Honourable mention to Super Mario Bros as well.

The Wizard is still pretty good though

Conan the Barbarian so cheesy as an adult

The Lady In White, creeped me back then saw it again and still had the same effect as did Poltergeist, the scene where the guy starts peeling off his face still gets me everytime.

"Lord of the flies" booooriiiiing,original though and a classic.
