We did this one for family movie night tonight. It has been so long since I have seen the move that I wasn’t sure if Jake would like it, but it resonated well with him. Unfortunately, I think he picked up a couple of tips that I will have to watch out for in the future.
So, this was a hit. I seem to be running out of ideas for family movie night, though. So if anyone has any ideas for me, please comment.
I’d say Breakfast Club, but perhaps that is a bit too harsh in language for Jake. Sticking w/ the 80’s theme: Adventures in Babysitting? Stand By Me?
Or a little newer: 10 things I hate about you? The Addams Family series?

Thanks. Those are some good suggestions. I’ll gauge his interest and add some of them to our blockbuster queue.

Star Trek IV:The Voyage Home (commonly referred to as the “one with the whales”) is uaually liked by Trekkie and non-Trekkies alike. Men in Black is a little newer. I remember taking my nieces and nephews to the original Ghostbusters. Apollo 13 is a very cool movie. Do you see a trend here? Maybe the Mummy movies, Journey to the Center of the Earth, and maybe the X-Men movies?
Thanks for your suggestions, too. I’ll run them past the boss.
