Button Moon

When I heard they were releasing Button Moon on DVD I had to buy it for my little lad. It's funny to watch it now 30 years on but its amazing how it can still capture the imagination of a 3 year old without using CGI or special effects.

And the imagination of many older people as it brings back memories. Although I guess its just out perception of what will and will not interest young kids. After all, their imagination is still the same as ours was all those years ago.

True enough. I was just as excited about seeing it again.

I'd heard of Button Moon but never really seen it. Had to search for Trap Door as I had no idea what it was! lol

Looking at the years they were made I can see why now! lol I would've been 11 when Button Moon came out and 15 when Trap Door came out so probably not the sort of thing I'd be watching at that age!

I must have a good few years on you Darren

- either that or you've got some explaining to do!

I think you must have 8-9 years on me in that case. But that puts you at about the right age to have gone to the cinema and seen star wars the first time around!
