And when Tigger’s birthday wishes get out of hand, your child will see how good behavior can get better results than all the wishes in the world. As each story unfolds, your child will be surrounded by favorite friends who show how to turn troubles around with a little respect, good behavior, and fun imaginative play. It’s just one more way Pooh makes growing up fun.

Fortunately, Jimmy always sees the errors of his meddling ways and figures out an antidote before the second Ice Age is irreversible or electricity becomes un-invented, depending on the particular jam he’s created. Jimmy brings Thomas Edison to the future to back him up in a classroom argument, shrinks his granny to an acerbic talking baby, sends his dad back in time to make good on a lost investment, sprays sunblock into the atmosphere in order to cool down on a summer’s day and invents computerized instruments so he and his pals can show off at the school talent show. He fits his pants with a computer chip so they’ll pick themselves up, tries to make himself into a boy of normal intelligence, and creates a salesman robot as well as an overly energetic, too-talented robotic brother. There’s some gross-out humor and adults come off as silly, but then so do the kids. (Ages 5 and older)

Gremlins (Special Edition) 2002

    Gremlins is a whee of a film (if you don’t mind the occasional gross-out) from producer Steven Spielberg, writer Chris Columbus, and director Joe Dante. Zach Galligan is the young man whose inventor father (Hoyt Axton) gives him an odd Christmas present: a tiny, furry creature that comes with a set of rules: don’t get him wet, don’t feed him after midnight, and keep him away from direct sunlight. But Galligan breaks the first rule and the damp little critter pops out a dozen little offspring. Then the offspring break the second rule and, overnight, turn from cute furry guys to malevolent scaly guys with world domination on their mind. The only way to stop them: rule three. But it’s an anxious (and extremely funny) battle to make it to daylight–and the bad gremlins find ways to multiply over and over. Great special effects and a gruesome sense of humor make this a wild (if occasionally dark and scary) ride.
