12 Nostalgic Movies on Netflix

A lot of the time I'm using Netflix to keep me working, which only works if I'm watching something familiar, and what better thing to watch than your favorite childhood movies. Here are some movies you might want to re-visit...

12) E.T, the Extra-Terrestrial

It's a strange movie, no doubt, but it's a classic. An alien has to get back home without being caught by the government on earth.

11) The Land Before Time

Throwing it back to the dinosaur days. Some young dinosaurs travel on their own, running from a deadly foe.

10) Spy Kids

Back in 2001, remember watching this on DVD? Everyone wanted to be a spy, if only for the cool gadgets.

9) Stitch the Movie

This little blue alien will always steal your heart, or at least you will love watching Lilo win his.

8) The Spongebob Squarepants Movie

I'm not even a huge spongebob fan and I've seen this one. I mean who would live in a pineapple under the sea? Then again, he's a sponge, so, I guess the better question is who thought up this show, because props to them.

7) Jimmy Neutron:Boy Genius

You'll laugh at what you thought was amazing as a kid, just like my roommates did.

6) Antz

I mean I still think A Bug's Life is better, but still a pretty good movie.

5) Holes

Good ol' Stanley Yelnats, that's Stanley backwards. I still remember Madame Zeroni's song, "If only, if only, the woodpecker sighs...".

4) Tarzan

This movie will always be in my heart- an all-time favorite, and it's on Netflix. It's a good thing too, because my family only has this on tape.

3) Robin Hood

Another favorite, what can I say, I'm a Disney girl. Watch the fox Robin Hood rebel against the lion Prince John, the phony king of England.

2) Batman

Speaking of Robin, watch Batman and Robin in the old Batman movie which is hilarious and fantastic. It teaches you that you should always have your Shark Repellent Bat-Spray!

1) Back to the Future

So this one isn't as early childhood as the others but no one an deny that Back to the Future is a classic that everyone should see at least once, so thank you Netflix.


What are some old favorites that you got to re-watch on Netflix?

Parks and Recreation excitedly gathered around a laptop at a table in an office setting.

The library. Club lib. The place every college student goes when they want to try and be a productive member of society. Who better to explain your experience than Parks and Rec?

Taylor Swift in orange dress playing a moss-covered piano on stage with bright lights.

A three-and-a-half-hour runtime. Nine Eras. Eleven outfit changes. Three surprise songs. Zero breaks. One unforgettable evening. In the past century, no other performer has put on an electric performance quite like Taylor Swift, surpassing her fans ‘wildest dreams’. It is the reason supporters keep coming back to her shows each year. Days later, I’m still in awe of the spectacle ‘Miss Americana’ puts on every few days in a new city. And, like one of Taylor’s exes, has me smiling as I reminisce about the memories of the night we spent together.

Today I started my third week of college at Minnesota State Moorhead. I have survived welcome week, finding my classes on the first day, and being an awkward loner in the dining hall. Even though I have yet to be here for a month, I have already experienced many thoughts and problems that only a new college student can relate to.

"Make sure to get involved when you're in college!"

We've all heard some variation of this phrase, whether it came from parents, other family members, friends, RAs, or college-related articles. And, like many clichés, it's true for the most part. Getting involved during your college years can help you make friends, build your resume, and feel connected to your campus. However, these commitments can get stressful if you're dealing with personal issues, need to work, or aren't sure how to balance classes and everything else going on during the semester.

In college, one of the essential things to have is friends. Yes, textbooks, a laptop, and other school supplies are important but friends are essential. Friends are that support system everybody needs. The more friends you have the better the support system you have. But you also have someone to share experiences with. And don’t settle for just one or two friends because 8 out of 10 times they are busy and you are studying all alone. Or they have other friend groups that do not include you. Don’t settle for just one or two friends; make as many friends as you can. After the first couple of weeks of college, most friend groups are set and you may be without friends.
