Can you imagine the joy of having your four year old wandering around the house saying, "Hello. My name is Inigo Montoya. You killed my father. Prepare to die."

Just as good as my 18 month old daughter sitting up in her bed first thing in the morning, looking at me and saying "Mike Wazowski!"

Damn, I love my kids.

Oh yea Kid & films are a great mix.

My 4 year old can sing every song from Moulin Rouge and knows most of the dialogue by heart.

She likes to read scripts of her favorite movies or transcipts of her favorite cartoon episodes and then acts them out. So I found <a href="http://www.karenmarshall.com/moulinscript.htm" target="_blank">this site</a>. She put it in her favorites and reads from it/acts it out everyday.

I have got to make a wave of her singing the Hindi Diamonds song wink

Well as long as it isn't something from Battle Royale I suppose everything is alright.

Blo, you are such an amazing guy...

My little girl (2) absolutely loves Shrek. She can recite some of the dialogue and goes crazy when the 'Dance Party' comes on. Kids are just so dang cute.

My son, too, Gracie. He's four, and it just makes me laugh like crazy when he dances around the living room singing "Bad Reputation" by Joan Jett.

Awesome! My 2 1/2 year-old daughter can't say "Wazowski", but she has me rolling when she cocks her head, looks at me dead on and says in her best Rozz voice, "I'm watching you, Wazblahblah, always watching."

Yeah, some of my fondest memories of being a kid are movies my parents introduced to me. Like my dad telling me I had to sit down and watch this great movie called Apocalypse Now, when i was about 4. yeah, good memories.

And, no i don't wonder why I am screwed up. I know.

When my son was two, he loved "The Spy who Shagged Me". He would walk around the house saying "Get in my BELLY" and "Ahm dead SEXY". Never have I been prouder. &lt;tear&gt;

My 3 year old is always quoting the bible. 'And I will strike down upon thee with great anger, and you will know my name is the LORD!' Seriously, though, my kid stopped saying that and is now just walking the earth, like Caine, trying to find himself.

I don't really have kids yet. First one is coming soon to a delivery room near me. I'm going to have to move my dvds to a higher place pretty soon.

Thanks. It's a boy, due on Valentine's Day. We're both very excited.

I didn't mean to come in here and ruin a perfectly wholesome thread. I just thought it would be funny to have a 3 year old quoting Pulp Fiction. I am really looking forward to sharing several films when my kid is ready, but I think I'll be waiting a while on any Tarantino movies.

I still haven't cracked the cellophane on the Pulp Fiction: SE DVD, but suggested watching it with my son, Jackson (6 weeks old) last Saturday, to which my wife responded "It'll be playing on Turner Classic Movies before he'll be seeing it!". She wears the pants.

Congratulations Scott, and best of luck Sammy!

And was it Blofeld's daughter who was humming Vader's theme while chasing kids at a party with a water pistol?

Nope. That wasn't my daughter. I wish it was.
Anyway, both my children have a favorite word now (from their repeated viewings of The Princess Bride). They both say, "Inconceivable" several times a day.
