1968 – Chitty Chitty Bang Bang

A kookey inventor, Caractacus Potts, invents an amazing flying car, which drives by itself. It takes him and his family to Vulgaria, where the sinister buffoon Baron Bomburst kidnaps the car. The baron has made children illegal, and Caractacus and Co. have to try and rescue the children of Vulgaria in this classic children’s story.

1971 – Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory

Twenty-five years after this merry movie charmed audiences with a colourful mix of song, humour and life lessons, the Candy Man still wields magic, especially now in a vibrant new print with a soundtrack in true stereo. From the classic Roald Dahl story comes a lip-smacking delight with jolly tunes, among them The Candy Man and Pure Imagination. With a golden ticket young Charlie Bucket (Peter Ostrum) wins a tour of the factory of wily mogul Wonka (Gene Wilder) and run by his Oompa-Loompa crew. There Charlie, his Grandpa Joe (Jack Albertson) and others discover a kind heart is a finer possession than a sweet tooth. Don’t let the tour leave without you!

1989 – The Little Mermaid

In Disney’s beguiling animated romp, rebellious 16-year-old mermaid Ariel is fascinated with life on land. On one of her visits to the surface, which are forbidden by her controlling father, King Triton, she falls for a human prince. Determined to be with her new love, Ariel makes a dangerous deal with the sea witch Ursula to become human for three days. But when plans go awry for the star-crossed lovers, the king must make the ultimate sacrifice for his daughter.

1994 – The Lion King

Lion prince Simba and his father are targeted by his bitter uncle, who wants to ascend the throne himself.

2001 – Monsters Inc

Created by the same Academy Award®-winning team responsible for Toy Story, this hilarious computer-animated feature opens the door to a world of monsters and mayhem and scares up lots of laughs in the process. Monsters, Inc. is the largest scare factory in the monster world and the top Scarer of kids is James P. Sullivan (John Goodman), a huge, intimidating monster with blue fur, large purple spots and horns, known as “Sulley” to his friends. His Scare Assistant, best friend and roommate is Mike Wazowski (Billy Crystal), a lime green, opinionated, feisty, one-eyed monster. Scaring children isn’t such an easy job — monsters believe children are toxic and that direct contact with them would be catastrophic. Then Sulley accidentally releases a tiny girl called Boo (Mary Gibbs) from the human world into his own, and she promptly turns the monster world upside down — and captures Sulley’s heart in the process.
