Remember When...?

Today I went to see Cinema Paradiso, a nostalgic look at a child's relationship with cinema. Personally I can't remember going to the cinema much as a child, but I do recall the Saturday morning video club at the Bo'ness United Social Club where there was a volatile mix of Grangepanzers, fizzy juice and martial arts movies. I can't remember seeing anything there that could be classified as a children's movie. Was there?
