There is nothing better than sitting on the couch with your son(or Daughter) and watching a movie you grew up on and maybe even watched with your dad! The Adventures of Robin Hood was definitely one I enjoyed sharing with my son.

How old are your kids again? and how did they receive it? Did they enjoy them as much as we did, or were they 'Old' movies with 'bad' graphic?

Kids are 12 and 10... They've loved every one of them (some much more than others). The graphics haven't really bothered them...though we chose not to show like early Star Trek. They still think Episodes 4, 5, and 6 are the best Star Wars movies
