What movies do you understand more? And what one would you learn toreds more if you wanted to watch something that would be a good movie to understand and like at the same time for you?

The movies which I understand and enjoy the most are those that are targeted towards children and/or teenagers. I've tried watching movies that people my age and gender typically enjoy (which would be romantic comedies/dramas), but I have a lot of difficulty understanding them due to their emphasis on social things such as body language and reading between the lines.

I prefer films for adults. But generally I prefer Science Fiction, Horror, and Thrillers. There are very few Comedies I like. And being forced to sit through a 'rom-com' is painful. So I prefer genres that focus less on human relationships.

I do like quite a lot of films targeted at children, especially if they are based on a book I like, or are more of a Science Fiction or Fantasy slant e.g. The Dark Crystal, Labyrinth, Neverending Story. There are some Disney movies I love, like Finding Nemo and the Lion King.

The Dark Crystal, Labyrinth, and The Neverending Story are movies I've liked since I was a kid, but I never *completely* understood them until watching them again as an adult. I think that's part of what's so great about such movies; it's easy to like them as a kid but you appreciate them even more after you mature.
