There is always that one person who says, "I never grew up watching kiddy movies." Then there is me who knows I'll continuously be watching kiddy movies for the rest of my life. Yes, I am one of those crazies who is currently protesting the removal of The Nightmare Before Christmas on Netflix this beautiful month of October! I mean really? How could they remove this is the month of halloween people! Okay, anyway, the importance of kid movies, here you go!
1. Everyone can watch them and everyone can enjoy them.
Kid movies are (usually) purposefully made to not only entertain kids, but parents too. When you're a kid, you love these silly movies, but as you get older you can appreciate the witty humor in it all. It's pretty clever one can sneak in random sex jokes without kids noticing. That in itself should be appreciated.
2. It's good to get out of this reality by watching some good old happy endings.
I mean most kids movies have that scene that make you cry, but in the end everything turns out okay! Which then you can carry into your life, you got fired and dumped? Guess what? At the end of your story everything turns out okay! It's pretty motivational.
3. It makes you smile.
I guarantee you there is at least one kids movie that you can watch and it will make you smile whether its from the cuteness or from the witty yet adorable humor.
4. They make that cold soul of yours cry.
