Honey, I Shrunk the Kids was an Epic Win with its huge sets and props, like the huge cookie they found in the yard, or the ant that behaved like a pet horse or dog and allowed them to ride it. It also had an epicly bad soundtrack.

I used to love this movie!
Pffft, I still do love this film. It’s one of the media definitions of epic.
Awesome movie! I watched this so many times as a kid I lost count. Then going to MGM Studios (MGM and not Universal, right?) and seeing the sets and everything on the tour was just awesome!
20 years later and I still want a gigantic oatmeal cream pie so bad
YES. Me too!
That cereal commercial was awesome.
The cereal scene (which made me refer to this movie as “You Will Never Eat Cheerios Again”) is one of the few movie moments that really made me lose my s**t as a kid. And it doesn’t get any better as an adult either, thanks to the sheer Freudian Squickiness, like that Goya painting of Saturn eating his own babies.
So, who wants cereal?
Hahah, my parents took me to see Honey I Shrunk the Audience in Disney once. It was a 3-D thing and I started freaking out, but refused to take off my glasses XDD
I miss Captain Eo…
Nowadays the kids would pull out their cellphone, call their dad and let him know they where by the sprinkler and it’d all be over with. lol! I loved this movie!
But would a cell phone still work if it had shrunk? If the kids are as small as gnats (judging by how big the ant was), the cell phone would be tinier than the dots on those “i”s in “tinier”. I’m pretty sure the reception would suck.
For that matter, would a human be able to function after being shrunk?
Every time I watch Crank, I feel a little unsettled remembering that this was the first movie I ever saw Amy Smart in…
Amy Smart wasn’t in any of the “Honey, I _____ the Kids” movies…
Fail
I drove my parents nuts watching this one. Ah…good times….good times.
I totally still have this on VHS…
i remember crying in the theater when the ant died…. like crying and demanding my parents remove me because i “hated the movie” after that point. this remains the only movie which has ever made me sob! i loved that ant.
The best part about this movie for me was actually the Roger Rabbit short at the beginning. (Not that I disliked the movie, though!)
