OH! Remember this movie!?

Well, I don't know about you, but when I find things that I used to love in my childhood I become ecstatic. Today, Troy and I were shopping around in HMV, and what I was really looking for was not there (The Brave Little Toaster. The little bugger is so hard to find!), but what I did find was the next best thing. The Land Before Time. Now, to some of you, this may not be too exciting, considering there are what, like 15 of them? I will always have a special place in my heart for this movie, because it is the first movie I have ever seen. Of course this was back when I was a year old, if that. But your first movie is still, and will always be, your first movie. And it was only $15. Had to have it!

After finding that movie, I started looking for the next hidden gem. The Rescuers Down Under!? Yes please! Then Troy held up another, "What about this one?". The Last Unicorn!! BINGO! (I watched that one every time I went to visit my Grandma). And last but not least, Fern Gully. Yes, that would be the one that Avatar ripped off. When I was at the till paying for my bundle of childhood faves, the clerk suckered me into buying Jurassic Park for $5. They sure know one way to my heart.

There are SO many more that I could find, but I had to stop before I went mental over all the good movies. And yes, I did find them all in the family movie section. It's a good place to look if you want to go down memory lane! But of course there are other movies that could bring me way back (but that most people probably didn't watch as a kid..), like Predator, Aliens, or Terminator 2, to name a few. You could blame that on the fact that I have an older brother, but I like to think that movies like that helped shape me into the person I am today. No romantic comedies for me, thank you very much! Monsters and destruction? Bring it on!
