YES!!!!!!!


"Cool Runnings" and "Coming to America"!


2 films that me and one of my best mates ca pretty much quote word for word!


All the Shreks, and Finding Nemo.


BN5, brave man saying Dirty Dancing, but it is classic, and the soundtrack is brill (with the odd exception).

Hey guys, I think we're getting a little outside the remit with some of these selections. Although I like "Shawshank" its probably only a feel-good when you watch it a second or third time when you know he gets out. "Schindler's" na, only watched it once but way too serious. Out and out screwball comedies surely can't make the list. There are too many victims. Laughing at the misfortune of others might be funny but it doesn't make you smile warmly.


I didn't want to include kiddies films in the list but "Ratatouille" and "Kung Fu Panda" make me smile throughout.

Juno

Once

Love Actually/Bridget/Dirty Dancing/Harry & Sally/Sleepless in Seattle/Notting Hill

Shawshank

Jack & Sarah

Enchanted (if you haven't seen it, do, it's lovely)

The Wedding Singer

Cool Runnings!

My Big Fat Greek Wedding

50 First Dates (it's the sea lion)

The Goonies!

"Feel good is too subjective to be a clear genre surely?"


I'd say "feel good" can be a genre or a purely personal thing


I like "The Commitments" which I guess is a "feel good" genre film


"Where Eagles Dare" isn't, but it's a feel good film for me because of the nostalgia factor - before the arrival of DVDs, Sky movie channel etc., a classic 60s war film on TV on a Saturday afternoon was a treat - and because the Richard Burton/Clint Eastwood combo is an absolute winner.

I don't think I could quite go along with any HK kung fu film... but there are certain ones I can watch again and again.

    • It was my understanding that Jeremy Corbyn was embarrassed by his brother and had distanced himself from his brother's views. I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong. Why on earth should "the overall view of that family inform Jeremy's response to the pandemic"? What exactly are you basing that assumption on?
    • I guess it's best to do what most Brits do these days, keep your head down and say nothing! although that's probably why this country is in the mess it is today!  😞
    • @Dulwichway Absolutely - I'm in no way trying to say that what happened was life-changing. I've encountered way worse situations and think of myself as pretty tough, which is why I took them on and got pelted. I suppose I'm just taken aback because the park always seemed so safe. But the stats I've just posted contradict that.   I suppose the one of the points of this thread is to point out that they weren't just numpty youths - I'd bet money on some of them being involved in more serious criminality. And to tell others to be vigilant. 
    • Still, I guess it could be a lot worse than water being thrown at you by these numpty youths during these warmer times? thankfully it wasn't the more dangerous mugging type youths that crossed your path waving knifes and guns in your face!  just a thought? hopefully these muppets will get sorted by plod soon, but don't hold your breath.
