It's movie night. You don't know who's coming but you have to pick a movie everyone vibes with. What do you choose?

If kids are around, probably Howl’s Moving Castle or another Studio Ghibli movie.
If I am gearing for adults, a comedy like Chef where the premise is lighthearted but not a total snooze fest.
another Studio Ghibli
Grave of the Fireflies it is!

Those movies are so great. Probably stick with the G and PG options if there's a young kid in the mix (thinking of Princess Mononoke, which is PG-13, IIRC). The PG ones often have just the right amount of "safe-scary" elements that it absolutely grabs their attention. Great movies for grown-up/kid conversation-starters to boot, just due to the deep, rich, human themes they explore.
My two year old daughter loves My Neighbor Totoro, we even got her a giant Totoro stuffy for Christmas.
Chef actually made me want to go to culinary school, and what drove me to pursue food service work in general.
