Ferngully (it's like the original, animated Avatar, 20 years before Avatar came out
I said the same thing back on page one. So glad I'm not the only dork who thought this when seeing Avatar.

I loved Ferngully, but the end was a little scary as a little kid.
The Sandlot - that might be one of my favorite movies of all time.
YOU'RE KILLING ME, SMALLS!!

Seeing the Sandlot mentioned (great movie btw) has me thinking of another movie with the kid from Malcolm in the Middle about him and his dog. His parents were Kevin Bacon and Diane Lane and it also had Luke Wilson as a neighbor kid just returning from WWII. I just can't remember the name and my connection is slow so I can't get IMDB to load.
Guess everyone is keeping an eye on the weather today. Wow, its January in VA and the forecast calls for snow. Nothing to get hyper about if you ask me. Now our corporate office in Baton Rouge has something to get hyper about this week but not us IMO.

I'm 30 years older too, your right, she's still a very pretty lady. I think we should ad " A Knights Tale" to the movie list, my kids and I like that one.

Four pages and no mention of Space Balls?
And Dr. Strangelove is pretty funny.
Guess it depends on the ages of the kids though...

Would Doctor Strangeglove and Space Balls be funny if you didn't know what they were 'mocking'? Would kids find it funny? I'm not really good at laughing at parodies of things I don't know... so the Scary Movie movies aren't particularly humorous to me. That might be why they weren't mentioned.
In the Doctor Strangeglove theme there's also Blazing Saddles but possibly not a good choice for kids.
There's always Time Bandits, but I'm not sure if that would hold the interest of young kids.
If you're Catholic (and enjoy the humorous 'problems' and 'contradictions' of your religion) you might find Dogma to be hilarious. Again, maybe NOT a kid friendly movie definitely a teenager thing.
And what about Bill and Ted's Excellent Adventure OR Wayne's World? I saw those as an adult so I'm not sure how appropriate for the 13 and under crowd they are. Caddyshack is a useless stupid movie - but when Bill Murray or Chevy Chase are on the screen it's HILARIOUS. Again not sure it's appropriate for the younger kids.

I always thought Harry and the Hendersons was a cute movie.

My husband's favorite kids movie was Escape to Witch Mountain from 1975. My daughter actually sat through it with him.
