Whatever happened to all of those good fun family type movies that were around in the '70's and '80's?
 
The kind where the whole family could sit around the tube without wanting to throw anyone out a window?
 
I miss those good old days and I'm sure a lot of you here do too.
 
As an example, here's a great older movie that is a personal favorite of USMers worldwide:
 
 
 
 
 
Anyone else have fond memories of those movies? 
What were your favourites?
 
Hey Larry once told me that he loved the movie "Chitty Chitty Bang Bang" so much
that in his cranky middle thirties, he was compelled to buy a  used Yugo.

Oh where is a Blockbuster Video when ya really have a hankerin' fer a good movie, Red Vines and some popcorn ... ???
  
Date: 5/19/2022 5:15:00 AM  From Authorid: 5940    I really had a great time in that movie, lot’s of fresh air and outdoor activities . Instead of a lounge chair I was provided with a hammock with which I took advantage of. The one weird thing about being on set was the strange guy living by himself in a makeshift cabin. His name was Ted and he was quite the loner. One day as Ted was riding his bike, with a package under his arm, the FBI stopped him and whisked him away to a car nearby. Never saw him after that, wonder what became of him?  
Date: 5/19/2022 5:16:00 AM  From Authorid: 5940    Yeah, turns out that Yugo was the bomb…literally. I did like Herbie The Love Bug.  
Date: 5/19/2022 12:52:00 PM  From Authorid: 21435    Hekler "The folks" tried the old family movie thing, a while back. The first one that I remember was "Bedtime For Bonzo." I got an unnatural fear of primates,
after that one. About ten, or so, years later, "they" tried again with a movie called "Andre." Yep, I've been afraid of seals, ever since. The last
"family movie night" our gang attended was "JAWS." That one "really" rocked the "home stone." My kid brother never used indoor toilets, again. (He just
knew that the shark was going to come up through the plumbing and eat him.) My "other" brother "wants" to get eaten by a shark and has been trying,
unsuccessfully, for nearly fifty years, and I, have been hearing "whales talking," in my sleep and as a result, have become "unemployable."

"L.D."---Gimme' a good old fashioned vampire movie, anytime.

kronk---Dig it, dog! I like the one about "Red Eye louie."

...HI Ginger! Just last night I thought about how long it's been since I saw you last.
Good to see you again. I'd probably see you around on a lot of other posts if not for
this continuing war of attrition between Hey Larry and myself. Never a spare moment.

If you want to rent a movie, the last Blockbuster Video store is located in Bend, Oregon

The remake has a sad story behind it. During filming, Hey Larry went out for a night on
the town, showed up the next day for work extremely hung over and promptly barfed on the
director's shoes. He was fired on the spot but Clive Larry (a cousin of some sort) saved
the day by stepping into the role. The two were almost identical in appearance by some
strange twist of fate. The title remained the same as the studio had already printed up
the posters and released a licensed line of toys.

...Hey Larry...that Ted guy...might his last name have been Kennedy?
The same guy you went on a pub crawl with? Has that part come back yet?

...Kronk...you could make a fortune if you could only devise some method of selling tickets to guided tours of your thoughts.

The old WWI newsreels still played on the TV when I was a sprout. We didn't really pay attention as kids because we were stupid
or something but managed to pick it up through osmosis. Had great dreams of trench warfare. Hey look! There goes Sam. There goes
the other half of Sam. I wonder if he had liked green eggs and ham. I'll never know for sure now.

I want to hear the background story on your brother with the dinner-for-shark obsession. You could write a script and hire the
Hey Larry players to take it all the way to Broadway. Get your toothbrush gold plated and then waste a little money on frivolous
stuff too.

  
Date: 5/19/2022 4:45:00 PM  From Authorid: 21435    Hekler Thanks, man. That comment makes me feel good. I've often thought the same thing, about peddling my swill, that is. Hey Larry and yourself, make a total of
"two," regular readers, so far. That's leaves about 7.9 billion "potential," but currently "non-committal."

"L.D."---And you wonder why?

kronk---Well, yes, I do. It's just that "the job is more complex" than people realize. I'm trying.

"L.D."---So is "Joe (blow all the money) Biden.

kronk---Ugh!
  
Date: 5/19/2022 4:59:00 PM  From Authorid: 21435    Hekler My brother's (Leonardo) fascination with "violent death by fish," requires at "at least" 6 liters of "Yarden Blanc De Blanc" ($32.75; American per, 750 ml)
to put me "in the mood" to expound on such a "family secret." I'm petitioning congress to front me the cash.

"L.D."---I'll talk to "Pelosi." She has a wonderful sense of humor.

kronk---So did the "Marquis de Sade.

"L.D."---Ugh!
  
Date: 5/19/2022 5:38:00 PM  From Authorid: 5940    LOL! War of attrition? The gloves have never came off. And Clive Larry is always happy to help when you throw in a carton of Camels.  
Date: 5/19/2022 5:42:00 PM  From Authorid: 5940    No, can’t say I was anywhere near Chappaquiddick. Ted was on his own that night, or so he says, but I wasn’t even old enough to drive At that time. That’s my story and I’m sticking to it.
