Alright, so, today I wanna talk about some movies that are kinda like “Honey, I Shrunk the Kids”. You know, that classic from the 80s? A real hoot. I was diggin’ around for some similar flicks, and let me tell you, it was a bit of a wild goose chase.
First, I fired up my trusty old computer. You know the old model, not the new model like a computer lab in a unversity.
Then I typed in “movies like Honey, I Shrunk the Kids” into the search bar. You know what I found? I found there are almost 70 films similar to it, can you believe it? Man, that’s a lot of movies! And I saw some familiar names like Rick Moranis, Matt Frewer, and Marcia Strassman attached to this movie. I mean, who doesn’t love Rick Moranis, right?
I started clicking around, looking for anything that seemed interesting. It seems like the main idea of the movie is about this wacky scientist, Wayne Szalinski, who makes this shrinking machine. But instead of shrinking things down real small, it just blows ’em up. And then, bam! His neighbor’s kid hits a baseball, it goes through the window, and things get crazy.
I spent a good chunk of my afternoon sifting through all this. Honestly, the deeper I went, the more I realized how unique “Honey, I Shrunk the Kids” really was. I mean, sure, there are other movies with shrinking or growing, but this one just had that special something, you know? But there are still many similar movies on Netflix, iTunes, Amazon, and Disney+.
I also stumbled upon something called “Honey, I Shrunk The Audience”. Apparently, it was some kind of 4D movie experience. Sounds kinda cool, but also a little weird, right? It’s not what I want to find.
So, after all that searching, here’s what I came up with:
- “Honey, I Shrunk the Kids” is a total 80s gem.
- Rick Moranis is a legend.
- There are a bunch of movies that try to do the same thing, but they just don’t quite hit the mark.
- Finding similar movies was way harder than I thought it would be.
In the end, I realized that sometimes, the classics are classics for a reason. They just don’t make ’em like they used to. It is so hard to find the movies like it.
What a day, huh? Went down a rabbit hole looking for movies and ended up appreciating the one I started with even more. That’s the magic of movies, I guess!
