OPEN FLOOR.

I swear, I was addicted to this.

Aged 5-10 these were some of my favourites. Sadly some of them lost a bit of the magic on adult rewatching:

The Parent Trap
The Chipmunk Adventure
Labyrinth
That Darn Cat! (original film)
The Sound Of Music
NIMH (I found it scary at the time but the animation was (and still is) wonderful)
Aliens (I was forced to watch Alien at an early age by my elder brothers and it scared the **** out of me. This one was scary but fun, since it was more of an action film than horror).
Bringing Up Baby
Desk Set
One Of Our Dinosaurs Is Missing
Mickey's Christmas Carol
The Birds

And probably a lot more I don't remember. I have to thank my older sister for passing her love for Katharine Hepburn to me at an early age.

Star Wars, of course
Jaws
Bad News Bears
Close Encounters
ET
Gremlins
Poltergeist
Moonraker (not sure why...)
Enter The Dragon
Road Warrior
The Warriors
Animal House
Blues Brothers
Superman
The Omen
Conan The Barbarian
Excalibur

All of these films would constantly play on an "only for teenagers" channel, and because I was such a rebel child, I would secretly still tune in regardless Don't judge me.















(I still love The Lost Boys)









(I remember constantly balling my eyes out while watching this)
Those were the days...mhmmm.
