Starter for 10, from a quick google of films for adults and kids, haven't seen all of them but would be happy to..

Harry Potter (1st one)
Star Wars (1st original one)
Kiki's delivery service, Spirited away - or some of the other Studio Ghibli films that are more child friendly
Up
Who killed roger rabbit
The Karate Kid
Sound of Music (too long?)
Despicable me

If anyone is wondering, we have already shown Grease, Mama Mia, Back to the future and Hairspray, so they aren't really an option.

ET.

Or Howl's Moving Castle.

I second those choices.

I wondered about this (Howl ) but thought maybe a bit scary? Love those Studio Ghibli films personally!

Gill at the meeting Ant mentions suggested ET so should have included on the list - only issue here was length, is quite long. Certainly an option though.

Let's have a British film - not American Hollywood crap :)

St Trinians ?

The Titchfield Thunderbolt ?

The Railway Children

( bit of a train theme emerging here but maybe not Trainspotting  )

Oliver ! , of course

This is a fracking great British film ...

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0845046/

Seriously, a perfect film for all ages.

Don't be put off by the 7.1 score, it's so much better than that.

It's also British and good at encouraging young people to want to make 'movies' and one that many people won't have seen because it didn't have a big marketing budget behind it.

The oldies will love it because it makes you feel like your in the eighties again, which is actually quite pleasant the second time around.
