Ok, so watching cars and its sequel on repeat is killing me (3 year olds.

) and I'm now convinced that the opening sequence of Cars 2 is on par with any James Bond opening sequence.
Need cool movies for a 3yo boy.
Already have Madagascar, Finding Nemo etc.
I know this is more for the ILFers with kids, but if any of you peeps have some child hood faves, chuck em in the mix!

Aww yeah.
Do we have to have kids to give recommendations?
When I was 3 the Land Before Time was my shit.
If they like Cars, give them Speed Racer. Dat intro (and the live action one was actually not as bad as everyone said).
Sonic the Hedgehog introduced me to the chili-dog.

Haha! Gore Police.
Thanks guys, you just reminded me of some stuff I'd forgotten about.
And no, Fsailors, kids are not mandatory when recommending stuff for kids.

Been there with the "Cars" movies, dude (I've got twin boys, now seven). Definitely grab a copy of "Mater's Tall Tales", which takes Mater from "Cars" and throws him into all sorts of cool situations - "Mater the Greater" would go especially well with Decibill's avatar. They're hilarious, and "Heavy Metal Mater" just plain rocks. All the "Madagascar" movies are good, as are "Despicable Me" and "Despicable Me 2". The "Ice Age" movies are also good. For live action stuff, check out the Robert Rodriguez stuff - "Shark Boy and Lava Girl" and the "Spy Kids" movies.
Not sure if I got lucky but my kids also loved "Yellow Submarine", which is pretty damn awesome. They also loved "A Hard Day's Night", especially all the silly stuff with Paul and his grandfather.

This thread is badly needed at our place. I can't count how many times we've seen Cars. Or Mater's Tall Tales for that matter...
