yeah friends is kinda easy. well for me cartoons where the first type of shows that introduced me to the english television :)

i'm thinking about scrubs, but i guess the language gets really hard to understand from time to time, especially when they're talking about "surgical problems" and stuff ^^

I wrote it also in the other topic - I recommend a film called The Interpreter the most. I did understand almost everything of what Nicole Kidman was saying in it. Being the interpreter she have to speak slowly and clearly. It is Sydney Pollack' s film, I liked it very much.

I would have said Brokeback Mountain but since you wanna watch an easy-to-understand movie I'd recommend The Family Stone. It's hilarious. Or even Napoleon Dynamite.
But sometime you should definitely watch Brokeback Mountain. It is my favorite movie. Whatever.

Hey, what about Garfield?

It's a quite funny movie and I have also chosen this movie to improve my english-understanding.
It wasn't too difficult.

Try it! I can recommend it

Hey,

I watched "The Incredibles" in English and it was very easy to understand!!! And the English voices are much funnier and they fit better to the charakters than the German voices!

A tip for you: For me it is much easier to understand movies, when you have the English subtitles.... Because then you can understand everything, also when they speak very unclearly!!!
