Goodness me, just reading about a Green Day friend, Val, who lives in the US. Her son was very badly injured in a car accident on (I think) the 23rd. He's got a fractured vertebrae, fractured skull and brain injuries but is expected in time to make a full recovery...however, he doesn't have health insurance Well, he does but it's a new policy which doesn't start until January so for now he has no insurance.

I dread to think what the hospital bill will be like, especially as he's been in intensive care

That's all I had time to watch Kaz....amazingly touching with not even real people!

I was never a huge fan of the traditional Disney cartoon movies but I really love the Disney Pixar films. I watched Finding Dory on the flight to LA last year, looked over to see what Joe was watching and he had it on too

Disney films weren't the 'thing' they are now when my lads were little.

They certainly are now....I need granddaughters!

I think we discovered them with Toy Story 2, that was the first film we took Tom to see at the pictures.

I was more of a Hanna Barbera and WB cartoons fan as a child. Give me Wile E Coyote over Bambi any day

We've never been a family for watching films at home.

I took the lads to watch all the Star Wars films when they had that revival thing...which I loved...never having watched the original in 1977.

I've never seen any of the Star Wars movies.

John and Joe love watching movies but I hate sitting still for that long, there's always something else I think I should be doing. That's probably why I mainly watch US sitcoms - 22 minutes and they're over and I can get on with doing something
