Here we are, the list of 100 fantastic films for families. I know, as soon as some of you read the list, you’re going to say, “You included this? What were you thinking?” Or “You left out that? What were you thinking?”
Yeah, yeah. Whatever. It’s my list. I didn’t say these were “the best” movies, just that they were “fantastic.”
Except for The Wizard of Oz. That is the best movie ever. Period.
So, here’s the list. If I can figure out how to put in on here in PDF format I will, but until then, in alphabetical order...

Ok, I cheated. There are more than 100 movies, as some of them deserved to have their sequels included. ** cough ** “Star Wars” ** cough **
I hope that you enjoy the list. I may update it next summer if any movies come out worthy of The List (6 movies on The List came out this year...you can never tell)
Happy watching!!
Laura :-)
