We saw "Wooly Boys" the other night... it's great!

Also, "Secondhand Lions" was a good movie too... cute ending!

:blink:

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

I've not seen either of those, so I will have to check them out. Thanks!!

I looked through the movies my husband and I did NOT throw away or give away, and here are some of the ones we have remaining that we have decided are ok:

Princess Bride - an all time classic and a must see for the family!! :thumbsup:

What About Bob? - a comedy and my all time favorite movie - makes me laugh!!

Frequency - Sci Fi about what if you could change history and about family ties

Sneakers - an old movie - has some language

The Core - Sci Fi about global warming, I think, and travel to the center of earth

The Day After Tomorrow - Sci Fi about global warming and kind of political

Left Behind I & II - about the book series on End Times and the Tribulation

Outbreak - about an outbreak of a virus and government having antidote

The Forgotten - Sci Fi about Aliens testing humans to get them to forget

Volcano & Twister - both disaster movies

The Terminal - has a minor sexual reference but other than that is good

Spider-Man II is really good, I think, with lots of good morals

Rear Window - Hitchcock at his best - Jimmy Stewart and Grace Kelley

Oscar - comedy - this is really funny and clean

The Majestic - story about mistaken identity and amnesia and after war

Stephen King's Langoliers - Sci Fi that has some "left behind" scenarios

Field of Dreams - some people consider New Age, but if taken from a Christian perspective, I think it has a really good message about faith

Roman Holiday - old - Audrey Hepburn as a princess who is unhappy with life

Sense & Sensibility - Jane Austin story

While You Were Sleeping - movie about family, love, friendship, etc.

Holes - Disney movie I think about kids on a work farm for delinquents

Anastasia - cartoon depicting the story of Anastasia - missing heir to throne

Remember the Titans - Disney movie, too, I think about football and relationships

The Emporer's New Groove - cartoon with David Spade

Some of these may have language, but we have the TVGuardian for that. I don't think all of these would be for "family" viewing, but certainly adults could watch them - can't think of anything bad in them that I have not mentioned.

Thanks to all of you who have given me many good movie titles to choose from. I have written them all down so that I can try to locate them. Today is my husband's 54th birthday, so it would be nice to just sit and snuggle and watch a nice movie tonight. Again, thanks so much!!

This isn't a Disney but Don did do several Disney movies actually.  My kids have "Gus" which stars Knotts playing alongside a football playing mule.  Then there was "The Apple Dumplin' Gang" and "Apple Dumplin' Gang Rides Again" with him, Tim Conway, and Bill Bixby.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

That's the one I was thinking of. I knew he was in a disney movie that was a western of sorts.

I'm a fan of good movies, especially clean ones...

I do have a problem with hearing characters swear, or blaspheme....

That's why I go for the animations!

LOL! :thumbsup:

Purchase a TV Guardian. For any movies marked with CC, it changes the words to something more acceptable or else just blanks out the words. So, as long as you don't read lips, you are ok. :)

    • You are coming up higher in this season – above the assignments of character assassination and verbal arrows sent to manage you, contain you, and derail your purpose. Where you have had your dreams and sleep robbed, as well as your peace and clarity robbed – leaving you feeling foggy, confused, and heavy – God is, right now, bringing freedom back -- now you will clearly see the smoke and mirrors that were set to distract you and you will disengage.

      Right now God is declaring a "no access zone" around you, and your enemies will no longer have any entry point into your life. Oil is being poured over you to restore the years that the locust ate and give you back your passion. This is where you will feel a fresh roar begin to erupt from your inner being, and a call to leave the trenches behind and begin your odyssey in your Christ calling moving you to bear fruit that remains as you minister to and disciple others into their Christ identity.

      This is where you leave the trenches and scale the mountain to fight from a different place, from victory, from peace, and from rest. Now watch as God leads you up higher above all the noise, above all the chaos, and shows you where you have been seated all along with Him in heavenly places where you are UNTOUCHABLE. This is where you leave the soul fight, and the mind battle, and learn to fight differently.

      You will know how to live like an eagle and lead others to the same place of safety and protection that God led you to, which broke you out of the silent prison you were in. Put your war boots on and get ready to fight back! Refuse to lay down -- get out of bed and rebuke what is coming at you. Remember where you are seated and live from that place.

      Acts 1:8 - “But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses … to the end of the earth.”

    • George Whitten, the visionary behind Worthy Ministries and Worthy News, explores the timing of the Simchat Torah War in Israel. Is this a water-breaking moment? Does the timing of the conflict on October 7 with Hamas signify something more significant on the horizon?

    • Understanding the Enemy!

      I thought I write about the flip side of a topic, and how to recognize the attempts of the enemy to destroy lives and how you can walk in His victory!

      For the Apostle Paul taught us not to be ignorant of enemy's tactics and strategies.

      2 Corinthians 2:112  Lest Satan should get an advantage of us: for we are not ignorant of his devices. 

      So often, we can learn lessons by learning and playing "devil's" advocate.  When we read this passage,

      Mar 3:26  And if Satan rise up against himself, and be divided, he cannot stand, but hath an end. 
      Mar 3:27  No man can enter into a strong man's house, and spoil his goods, except he will first bind the strongman; and then he will spoil his house. 

      Here we learn a lesson that in order to plunder one's house you must first BIND up the strongman.  While we realize in this particular passage this is referring to God binding up the strongman (Satan) and this is how Satan's house is plundered.  But if you carefully analyze the enemy -- you realize that he uses the same tactics on us!  Your house cannot be plundered -- unless you are first bound.   And then Satan can plunder your house!

    • Abraham and Issac: Pictures of the Resurrection, Part 2
      Shalom everyone,

      As we continue this series the next obvious sign of the resurrection in the Old Testament is the sign of Isaac and Abraham.

      Gen 22:1  After these things God tested Abraham and said to him, "Abraham!" And he said, "Here I am."
      Gen 22:2  He said, "Take your son, your only son Isaac, whom you love, and go to the land of Moriah, and offer him there as a burnt offering on one of the mountains of which I shall tell you."

      So God "tests" Abraham and as a perfect picture of the coming sacrifice of God's only begotten Son (Yeshua - Jesus) God instructs Issac to go and sacrifice his son, Issac.  Where does he say to offer him?  On Moriah -- the exact location of the Temple Mount.
