Any movie suggestions for 8yo boys

[bumpertobumper]

DS has a friend over, they want to watch a film but I don't know what to show them.
They have seen and like things like star wars, hobbit etc.
I'm sure there are some old classics they would love but I can't think of any...
Suggestions please

Not Ghostbusters!!! DS saw it last year age 7 and was terrified to sleep for weeks!

I wouldn't do Jurassic park either! Terrifying

[TwoLeftSocks]

Flight of the Navigator
Back to the Future

Back to the Future is DS (6) favourite film. He has even asked about having a Back to the Future party

We went for ET. They enjoyed it and were moved.
Will work through some of the others on this thread. Thanks everyone!

Night at the Museum
The Goonies
Hook
The latest Peter Pan with the Blonde lead boy
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory
My nephew lives Starwars but depends on if you think he's a bit young

The Rocketeer

Ghostbusters contains sexual content and bad language that you may not remember with the rosy glow of nostalgia so do be aware.

I second pixels... my sons love it.

[Selenatwins]

Big Hero Six? Bit young? My 9 years old like it...

[Selenatwins]

Spiderwick chronicles...bridge to terabethia...mouse hunt...karate kid...never ending story...arthur and the invisibles...

The Mask?

[Cathpot]

Zathura- 2 brothers find an old game as as they play it things start to happen , the whole house ends up floating in space. Very fast paced, good ending.
Treasure planet ( cartoon film, very well done)
