1. Troop Beverly Hills -- Fun and good times!! Diva-mode Beverly Hills girls who generally hate the outdoors compete in cookie sales and fashion shows, then eventually brave the "Wilderness Jamboree" - good times! "It's missing a bead!" "We're the girls from Beverly Hills! 1-2-3-4. Shopping is our greatest skill! 5-6-7-8!" "I am the log; I am the ravine!" "A box of them would be so nice - buy some! Cheap at even twice the price - try some! Cookie time, cookie time, cookie time!!"
2. It Takes Two -- Girls from different families who just happen to be identical pull a parent trap style prank to get two adults together. Gosh, I loved this movie, and it was terribly cheesy! "Little Betty Butkiss!" "Are you asking me equestrian?" "I've got spurs that jingle, jingle, jangle!"
3. Big Business -- Bette and Lily play twins mixed up at birth who randomly meet much later in life... so many hilarious things about this movie! I must see it again soon, but it's not exactly out to rent at Redbox. :( "Got on my Tuesday panties, but I bet you know that, too!"
4. The Money Pit -- Young couple buys a fixer-upper house that turns out to be a complete disaster. Tom Hanks laughing uncontrollably when their bathtub falls through the second floor = hilarious! "Two weeks!" "I'd love to help you out, but somebody stepped-ed on my fingers!"
5. Honey, I Shrunk The Kids -- Scientist dad accidentally shrinks his kids (and the neighbor kids), then they have to survive the wild backyard. Good times!
6. What About Bob? -- Guy who has an OCD disorder and a million irrational fears becomes attached to his psychiatrist and joins their family vacation. "I sail! I'm a sailor now. AHOY!" "Baby steps get on the bus." "Hi. I'm Bob. Will you knock me out!?" "Doctor!! Leo!! Marvin!!!" "It was a disaster, Faye!"
7. The Mighty Ducks -- Gordon Bombay coaches kids in hockey, and they learn that fun is more important than winning. And the whole flying V thing. "Quack, quack, quack, quack, Mr. Ducksworth!"
8. Free Willy -- Orphan boy and orphan whale become friends, and boy helps whale escape ridiculous people and find his family again! "Shalana, I-oom, I-asis!" lol
9. Angels in the Outfield -- Tiny precious Joseph Gordon Levitt sees angels helping the team, which includes Matthew McConaughey and Adrien Brody! #random I heart the scene at the end when the whole crowd stands up and flaps their wings. lol Good old fashioned cheesiness!
10. Yours, Mine, & Ours (the 1968 version with Lucille Ball) -- Such a fun movie about a widow and widower who both have several kids getting together and having one that's both of theirs. Fun movie - it used to seem like a great, fun idea to have so many people living all together - now, it sounds kind of awful. I do remember laughing really hard at the scene where his boys purposely get her drunk to make her look stupid at dinner.
There are several childhood favorites that I still love and watch semi-regularly... like Father of the Bride, While You Were Sleeping, Big, Speed, Clueless, Sister Act 1 & 2, etc. Then there are other cheesy movies that I don't really miss, like A Very Brady Christmas where Mike gets trapped underground then Carol and fam sing Christmas carols. lol Rach loved to rent that one back in the day! Anyway, we're still waiting on a verdict, and I'm not at all happy about that but can't post any details here. I'm off to talk to Laura again for a while!
Hope you're having a happier Thursday! =)
