I prefer Japanese and other animation as they are colorful and one can usually dinf a good selection of light hearted movies many with amazing soundtracks for those out of touch moments.
Lately I have rather enjoyed the series Tripping the Rift, a CGI series made by SciFi, its exceedingly colorful and full of odd humor (akin to South Park, Family Guy and other edgey comedy anims).
I don't advocate having anything on the TV every time you trip but if visual entertainment is in your itenerary, great.

There's always too much going on visually anyway for me to be bothered with watching a film while tripping - TV in general annoys me. Plants, artbooks, the view of trees from my living room window - now you're talking.
I once watched all of 2001, but I kept doing things other than watching the screen a lot of the time, what I did watch was pretty cool.
I often enjoy something in the last hour or so, to relax me down to baseline. Bill Hicks: Sane Mane, The Big Lebowski, O Brother Where Art Thou have all had me chuckling as the effects wear off.

I watched V for Vendetta while tripping and that was just awesome. I'd like to watch "Spirited Away" while on a trip one of these days. That would be too cool.

I never could watch tv while tripping, just fucks with my mind way to much. I've always been the one to go wondering off into the woods and disappearing for hours. I remember a time while taking some LSD my friends had some movie on and I was completely not paying attention and next thing I know I could have sworn I was wearing a care bear outfit and then I almost talked myself into thinking I was one, then I just went kinda nutty and I stopped tripping for awhile after that and TV is off my list of things to do while tripping.

The only thing I've ever tried to watch whilst tripping was The Simpsons, and I hated it (it's my second favourite TV show whilst sober, the first being Futurama).
If I were to try watching something whilst tripping, I think I'd try something like:
- Futurama - Random music TV (I don't watch music TV normally, but a bit of randomness might be interesting) - The Labyrinth - Some random kids TV stuff maybe
I can't really think of anything else at the moment.
I like a lot of anime, especially the far out cutesy type stuff, but I don't think I could watch it whilst tripping. Apart from being unable to read the subtitles, I just have a strong feeling I would get incredibly bored with it.
Maybe something a bit more fantasy-based like Spirited Away, Castle In The Sky or Mononoke Hime would work well.
Having said that, I don't plan on watching TV during a trip anytime soon. Maybe in the future, but I have too many higher priority ideas at the moment.

Akira is awesome on shrooms. The animation is stellar (especially for 1988), and the plot is intrigueing. There are a few really trippy scenes. I recommend it. (I also second the nomination for Princess Mononoke. That one's a little less trippy--for the most part, but it's epic and has grade-A voice work from well-known actors.)

I actually loath watching TV/movies when tripping. I seem to get a lot more out of it focusing on the inner experience.

Dr_Thunda, why do you feel the need to post in a topic that you have no interest in?

The only movies Ive watched were all Japanese anime movies. The colors in those just gets to me when I can focus enough on it. I do prefer to go outside and enjoy it instead.

I dont like watching movies @ home while tripping. There have been a few times I've done Mush and gone to the theater ( Robots, Harry Potter, and one or two others), but thats on the imax with good picture/sound, my home system is too crappy to get 'asorbed' into the movie and find trying to follow anything while tripping to simply be annoying.
I rather enjoy looking at artwork while tripping however - the picture shows I can get from a nice peice of art + a good dose of LSD = far more interesting than a cartoon.
