I love zootopia, the Bridge to Terabithia and Robin Hood.

I don't like star wars, but that's pretty much it....

I liked Rogue One a lot. Force Awakens, not so much. I can barely even remember the main plot points of TFA, even though I watched it back-to-back with the first three and I can remember those just fine.

I liked Zootopia, but the underlying message kind of went over my head when I first saw it. I was probably just too drunk on popcorn. 

How To Train Your Dragon is one of my favorite movie sagas ever - the third is coming out in 2018 and I'm really unreasonably excited!

I saw Sing last Sunday with my older brother. It was kind of a "meh" overall, although a lot of the songs were surprisingly well-sung. But there were Russian bears! ...who for some reason didn't get fined for the total destruction of private property.

I never liked the Harry Potter movies. I thought they were pretty bad and oftentimes didn't stay true to the books at all. The first one was decent, but after that I definitely prefer the books. 

Also, I never actually saw Norm of the North, but I watched several trailers and it looked like the worst animated film I'd seen in a few years. 0/10 would not recommend.

Super excited for the Emoji Movie too. That's not a dumb concept at all. /s

Hold up. There's going to be a third How to Train your Dragon?! Excuse me for a moment. *runs around screaming hysterically* 

Ok I'm good now. I can't believe it! I love those movies!! Here's some of my favorite movies:

Son of Batman (Probably not the best movie for younger CBers, but a great movie overall.)

The Giver (Even though Jonas looked not even close to twelve and the movie was a lot different than the book, it was still a great movie. I hope they make movies for the other books in the Giver quartet, but I doubt it.)

The newest Star Trek, Star Trek Beyond. (Again, probably not the best for younger CBers, because of some minor language-mostly Bones saying things-, but I love that movie. And the movie before that, Star Trek Into Darkness.)

National Treasure (it's a pretty good movie, although pretty predictable in my opinion.)

Tomorrowland (I've watched this movie a few times, and, although predictable in my opinion, it is a great movie.)

Ummm... Those are all I can think of right now. Here's some movies I loathe:

Frozen (I've had to watch it in three different languages multiple times, and the kids I babysit love it, so I have to hear the soundtrack constantly. Ugh.)

Zootopia (It was ok, just rather boring, and the plot was kinda confusing.)

-------------

Break of the movies!

As you can probably tell by now, I don't really like Disney movies. I never even liked the princess movies when I was a kid! Anyway, I'm almost done, don't worry.

-------------

Hachi (I love the movie, it's just I can't watch it. If I do, i will literally cry all night. And the next day. It's such a depressing ending!!!!! Ugh, no, go away tears. The feels!)

Up (WHY?? WHY DID YOU HAVE TO KILL ELLIE???-I think that was her name...- Yes, I cried at that one too...)

 

Ok, I think that's it. Oh, and my dad and I LOVE the Night at the Mueseum movies. Except for the third one... Anyway, if you have any suggestions, please let me know! I practically live on drawing, writing, reading, tv, and Cricket. Ok, I'm gonna submit this before you all kill me from taking up so much cyberspace with this long and weird post! Sorry!

Yes, there will be a third HTTYD! Also, I made a mistake - the development team said it's more likely to come out in March of 2019. Still though, that's only two years!

(I kind of agree about Frozen - the first time I saw it I liked it just fine, but after that it got really overplayed and kind of annoying.)

That is literally the best news I have heard all day. YAY!

About Frozen: Yea. It's pretty predictable as well.

1. Yes there is going to be a 3rd HTTYD. And IT IS GOING TO COME OUT IN 2018 BECAUSE I SAID SO. (And if it came out in 2019 Id be to old to go see it publically, but you know, I could just convice a whole bunch of my friends to come see it with me. ;) Oh and spoiler alert, TOOTHLESS IS GOING TO DIE! *sobs* IM GONNING TO CRY IN THE MIDDLE OF THE MOVIE WHEN THIS HAPPENS AND MY FRIENDS WILL BE JUDGING ME AND I WILL NOT CARE BECAUSE TOOTHLESS IS GOING TO DIE! *crys some more while running around in circles* And dont argue with me because if you look back to the other movies, he's telling it like a time when they did have dragons, like they dont have them anymore. And all the dragons go away and im gonna cry because Toothless is gonna die....*now balling eyes out*

2. Sorry to burst your bubble, but they cancled the emogi movie. I know, I was looking foward to it also. );  

and now here are my movies!

Lion king 1, 1/2, and 2! The first one made me cry, the second one was a beautiful love storyish. They were still really good and the highlight of my childhood.

Fox and the Hound. Made me cry! So good!

LaLa Land. I know its a new movie, but i went and saw it last night. The first part was good, got a bit board in the middle, but the end made me cry. I wont give it away, but its a go-to movie of a love story.

Brother bear. Beautiful story line.

Balto. Also another highlight of my childhood.

How to Train Your Dragon. Duh!  

I actually dont like Star wars or the Hobbit or any of those movies. I liked the Hunger Games, Maze Runner, and the Divergent movies though. Jurassic World was also great, better then the Jarassic Park movies. Paper towns was also really good. ;)

Oooh I love this thread already!!!

Favorites:

-The Road to El Dorado

-Harry Potter

-The Emperor's New Groove

-Kronk's New Groove

-Star Wars - ALL THE WAY BRO !!!

-Big Eyes (It's a true story about a woman who paints. You should watch it!)

-The Theory of Everything - the soundtrack is amazing but so sad! It's so good!

-I haven't seen La La Land yet, but from what I've heard (mostly from my 18 year old brother who's seen it three times for some reason) it sounds really good. I've already listened to the soundtrack several times, and I love it!

-The Hunger Games

-Hoodwinked (animated movie)

-Indiana Jones is pretty good

-The Debaters. Since I do debate it was really impactful. It was about African-American debaters from this really small college who basically debate REALLY well and win despite the racial sentiment at that time!

-Pirates of the Caribbean 

 

Movies I didn't love

-Angry Birds. Anyone considering watching it, honestly it was just a complete waste of time.

-I didn't really think HTTYD was super great, but it was ok I guess

-Frozen is ok, but it's just been overplayed I think

Ahh, I love Jurassic World! Running in high heels (from a t-rex), though? Not likely.

Who here is excited for Guardians of the Galaxy 2?

Oooh... I'm going to forget a bunch:

-Pirates of the Carribean (but I didn't like the 4th one)

-For some reason I was really obsessed with the Avengers movie for a little bit

-Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (my friend and I were so happy once we saw it that we were literally freaking out. Better than the HP movies in my opinion)

-Pitch Perfect 1 & 2 (the 1st one is better, the 2nd one is funnier)

My brother and I really want to see Sing, mainly because we like the gorilla. Aaand I have to go.
