Thanks J-Fan.
You know, as the father of small children, It's too bad VDO didn't do one of these "Faerie Tale Theatre" shows. Nearly all of his film work is R rated; the most recent stuff is really violent. You'd think he'd want to participate in a project his kids could see.
Perhaps VDO wasn't invited because he just didn't hang with the appropriate circle of (California) friends.

I love Faerie Tale Theatre! Haven't seen it in ages.
Again, I did not remember that JG starred in of the versions. Is it ever on TV? I forget which cable station used to run it. HBO?

Here is another Jeff kiddywink project. Cats & Dogs (2001)There’s a secret war being waged in the homes and neighborhoods of Earth that the humans don’t even know about; an eternal struggle between two great armies: the Cats and the Dogs. The film follows a Cat’s plan to destroy a new vaccine, that if developed, would destroy all human allergies to Dogs, and the Dogs’ efforts to stop the Cats. Specifically, it’s the story of a young pup (Tobey Maguire) whose job it is to guard the vaccine. Other dogs include a wise older dog who watches out for him (Susan Sarandon), a large friendly dog (Michael Clarke Duncan), and a small dog who serves as an electronics expert (Joe Pantoliano). Jeff Goldblum is the human scientist that invented the vaccine. foggycitymommy.com/2009/cats-dogs/

I think that's because he did and still does so much Indie stuff. Not only do they get rated tougher (*cough* or so I heard), it's usually the little bit more "critical" stuff that no studio dared to pick up.
But I'm for one second going to speculate (Patcat may keep her bat ready) and say that Leila has probably seen more than I'd be comfortable with. Acutally, all she has to do is put her Dad's name in at YouTube and she can see quite a lot...

I agree TJ that it seems that way. Nevertheless, you just have to look at Jeff's film resume and you will see indie indie indie and so on. In a recent interview I posted here Jeff stated that he has done alot of the edgier/indie filmwork. Both actors have done their share of mainstream but that's what pays the bills! And, of course, LO:CI.

Yup Jeffan, I would've put Jeff in the "indie"-Column, too!
It was rather in response to AL's comment about the movie ratings, tough.

Sorry Tjara, I misconstrued your comment!

Oh, no problem. Maybe I should've been clearer in my comment, too...
