The Goonies, Sandlot... (born '85)
As for TV, I was fortunate to be a child during the Golden Age of Nickelodeon (late 80's-mid 90's). I grew up with such classics as Salute Your Shorts, Pete and Pete, Hey Dude, Clarissa, Are You Afraid of the Dark, Doug, Rugrats, Rocko's Modern Life, Legends of the Hidden Temple, ahh... the good old days. With YouTube I can relive them.

Smarty pants... Did the question mean movies that were about the era I grew up in or movies that were popular when I grew up?

There was no such thing as watching a movie more than once when I was growing up unless it came back into the theaters again at a later date. Disney movies were the only ones that I remember where that was done.

The Wizard of Oz came on each year at Thanksgiving. That's about the only one with regular repeats until I hit college age. But we played "Hatari" for weeks after we saw that as kids. "The Sound of Music" and "It's a Mad Mad Mad Mad World" were also huge favorites.

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)
