Howard The Duck - Because I'm a fan of irreverent 80's movies, and Lea Thompson.

Harry and the Hendersons - I'm a fan of Rick Baker's makeup effects work.

Wallace and Gromit: The Complete Collection - It never occurred to me to look on the kid's shelf for them. (But now I have two Matter of Loaf and Death discs. (Oh, well))

The Spongebob Squarepants Movie - Because I like things that live in pie-napples.

Charlie and the Chocolate Factory: 2-Disc Special Edition - I'm a sucker for behind the scenes bonus features.

The Emperor's New Groove - I'm running out of reasons.

Mars Attacks - Tim Burton! I say no more!

Man since it's actually been awhile since I post ANYTHING on this fourm, sadly. I've bought a ton of DVDs. But here's the list, as it were...

My Neighbor Totoro- To be honest, I'm a newer fan of Hayao Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli's work, but I've enjoyed and totally LOVED anything I've seen so far. This is one I've been waiting for a little while now and it was on my "must have" list when I saw Disney was rereleasing it.

Monsters vs Aliens-Because it's a pretty darn entertaining animated movie and lord knows this is coming from a big Disney fan. So big ups to Dreamworks, though my favorite movie from Dreamworks is still Kung Fu Panda.

Horton Hears A Who!- This would be the original 2D animated one and not the CGI one starring Jim Carry. Reason I bought it, it was only 3 bucks, :smile:. I've actually never seen it before, but thought it looked like something I would enjoy. And I was right.

The Powerpuff Girls Movie- Because since I'm a happy owner of the complete series, I figure this was the last piece of the total history that was needed for PPG. My favorite is still Bubbles.

Disney's The Princess and the Frog-Because I totally LOVED this movie. I bought the Blu-Ray, DVD, Digital copy 3 disc set. I bought it at Target, which also come with this little coin purse thing, which I'll never use since I'm a dude. But anyway I bought this the day it come out. I LOVED LOVED LOVED this movie.

Ponyo-2 disc DVD set. I bought the one that come with a collectable plush...because I'm a sucker for that kind of stuff. Interesting note though, when I got it, it actually said on a sticker that it comes with a Blu ray of the movie as well as a DVD. But it was actually just a two disc DVD. Which is cool.

Alvin and the Chipmunks- This would be the CGI movie. I bought it used as a gift for my three year old nephew, whom just turned three, as a late B-Day gift. Since it was used though, and therefore already opened, I did check out a feature in there titled "Chip-Chip-Hooray" which about the history of the Chipmunks, and I really enjoyed that special feature, though it was a bit shorter than I would of liked. Anyhow, my nephew really liked it, which I figured he would since I also had to give him my copy of the animated classic "The Chipmunk Adventure," now I'm on the lookout for a replacement copy for myself of that one, :wink:.

Fraggle Rock: The Animated Series- Pretty much for the same reason, everyone else that mention buying this on the fourm did. I own the complete original series, so like the Powerpuff Girls, I figured might as well owned the rest of that show's history. Great cartoon, with GREAT voice acting, like Rob Paulsen and Townsend Colemen.

I have recently gotten:

Chicken Run - I like Aardman Animations and the stuff they do and I'd been looking for it for quite a while, plus Meijer only had two copies on the shelf and the disc had come loose in one of them.

Anastasia: 2-Disc Family Fun Edition - It's a fun movie (I think Rasputin is one of the greatest animated villains EVER!) and I just can't say no to a 2-disc edition!

Monty Python: The Other British Invasion - 2 very good documentaries in one set, I love Monty Python. Case closed.

Robin Williams: Weapons of Self Destruction

I watched this one on HBO when it originally aired, back when we had our 3 month free trial. It was a bit of a problem getting this one at my local Bestbuy, though.
