DVDs for kids and adults

205.142.197.15

I have 5 and 6 year old boys. I've enjoyed watching DVDs that I like with them. Watching my 6 year old struggle with the idea of sacrifice in Armageddon was very special. ("Dad, if you were on that asteroid, you'd tell them that you have boys at home and you can't draw a straw, wouldn't you?" The next time we watched: "If it's to save everyone in the world, you might have to draw a straw, Dad.")

I was a big fan of treating the kids like adults until they decide that shirt, darn, and Christmas (the orginal words, not the ones put here for the censors) were OK because Harry says them. I have so far failed to keep the language up to my wife's standards. Violence is a problem as well. For a while we need to watch DVDs more designed for kids.

Iron Giant is great, Dark Crystal is great, Bug's Life and Antz are OK.

What suggestions do you have?

Thanks in advance,

Alan
