Try every film by Hayao Miyazaki. Almost all are kid-friendly and have that lovely style that makes the worlds seem so real. The easy to find good ones are; Princess Mononoke, Porco Rosso (AKA crimson pig), Kiki's Delivery Service, Laputa: Castle in the Sky, NausicaÃ¤ of the Valley of the Winds, and My Neighbor Totoro. Porco Rosso is probably my favourite, the Mediterranean scenery is beautiful from the air.
If the kids (or you) are cat lovers then The Cat Returns will probably go down well. Itâ€™s another studio Ghibli film but with no Miyazaki this time.
If the kids are still young they will probably like the One Piece movies. It might be a bit too zany for most adults but kids love the kooky pirates (Jungle wa itsumo Hare nochi Guu is another good bet if your kids are into barking mad stuff).
After the kids go to bed try Vampire Hunter D: Bloodlust and maybe work your way through the Cowboy Bebop series and movie.
