I third and forth that!!! Just because I have a dal... like Paul.

But no, the Goonies sounds like a great one to me, I know I'd go see it!

Others I can think of...
The Sandlot
The Mighty Ducks
The Never Ending Story
Toy Story
Rookie of the Year

I love kids movies... haha

All good suggestions...thanks and keep them coming.

Leaning towards The Goonies right now but who knows...? As far as rights go with Disney etc., it's a backyard show for my family so no issues there.

Now we just need the rain to stay away a couple more days.

"Skippy The Outback Kangaroo" TV episodes (loved the Roo).

Seriously, "The Incredibles" is great fun for kids and the adults.

John, I believe I was wrong, wasn't the tele show "Skippy The Bush Kangaroo"?

Sigourney Weaver (as Zoul) - "Do you want this body?"

Bill Murray - "Is this a trick question?"

How about Raiders of the Lost Ark ? (Scope/ PG) Could be a fun way to build excitement for Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Flaming Crystal Skull . (yawn)

For a scope film that should be popular downunder, I can recommend Phar Lap. I recently re-watched it for the first time since I was a kid and it really is a well-made film.

Depending on how young the youngest viewers are, something like North by Northwest might work well. There is nothing really offensive in it and it has some great visuals.
