I grew up watching these movies. Most of them still hold up well. I voted for First Men in the Moon--one of the reasons I wanted to be an astronaut as a kid.

Clash of the Titans was my first Harryahusen movie.
My babysitter took me and a friend.
It was also my first movie with nudity! I was 7. It was awesome!

I voted Jason and the Argonauts, but Seventh Voyage is a close second. I really love Harryhausen.

I have not seen any of them. Does "Monsters Inc" count?

I am a fan of Nemo's polls.
Even the ones that I criticize.

"Jason and the Argonauts." Apart from being a fine movie, a childhood viewing of it inspired me to start reading everything I could find on Greek mythology. And I'm glad I did, because it's significant part of our cultural heritage.

Clash of the Titans.
All those movies are great, but that one had nudity, a two-headed dog, a robotic owl and even Burgess Meredith! It was amazing to me as a little kidlet.

The "correct answer is probably Jason and the Argonauts, if only for
the skeleton fight alone. Mysterious Island has a better story and acting, and could stand on its own without the Harryhausen monsters. But the giant chicken, crab, and bees are no match for the creatures in Jason and the Argonauts.
