Planning a movie night tonight. Was going to introduce my brood to Goonies, but saw someone mention ET earlier and thought that may be a good idea.
What are some other ideas from you other kids of the 80s?

Kids are ages 12, 10, 4, 2.

Kellys Heroes for the 12 year old.

Something children of all ages would enjoy is Road to Rio with Bob Hope and Bing Crosby. They made a few movies in a similiar format and they are fantastic fun for kids, those two had great chemistry.

I wonder how the smart phone generation will react to what used to be common problems but now are easily solved. "Why do they keep asking that Mouth dude to translate instead of using the translation app?" "You thought the wishing well was a treasure? Don't you have a map app?"
