    Love the Goonies now, but was much older when I saw it for the first time. Others that I'd include would be The Lion King, Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles and He-Man (I should probably put in an embarrassed smiley, but I'm not really).

    God yeah the Herbie movies were class.

    I also loved The Muppet Show Movie, Back to the Future, Crocodile Dundee and my dad and I used to watch Blazing Saddles.

    My eldest son loved Cat Ballou. Every day when he was about 4 years old he watched it and War Wagon. Over and over and over and over. I can still hear the line from Cat Ballou "I'm as drunk as a skunk" as slurred by my then 4yr old.

    Santa brought them War Wagon on dvd last year. Maybe Cat Ballou will make an appearance this year!

    ...and anything with Ursula Andress or Raquel Welch.
    Forget about the performance or entertainment. It's only the result that matters.

    If you're in the penalty area and don't know what to do with the ball, put it in the net and we'll discuss the options later

    Die Hard was the dog b0llox when I was a kid.
    I think I should the parachute, because I'm great.

    In fact, I think I should get both parachutes, in case one doesn't work.

    Jungle Book came out when I was a kid......it's 40th Anniversary edition is on DVD this year!
    I also loved the Bugs Bunny and Roadrunner movie which was basically just an extended version of the TV shows with loads of individual episodes.
