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.
Grave of the Fireflies it is!
Sadness entered the chat...
Chef actually made me want to go to culinary school, and what drove me to pursue food service work in general.
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.
