Hello vegweb,
I am a fan of movies that have a plot set in places like tropical islands, jungles and rainforests.
Some of the movies that are like this include:
Nim's Island (Great one! Cried at the end)
Fern Gully, The last RainForest
The Swiss Family Robinsons
Joe VS the Volcano
Since I will be living in such an environment in one month these movies are especially entertaining to me at this time!!
Can anyone recommend or suggest other movies that may be of interest?
here's a good book:
Shooting the Boh: A Woman's Voyage Down the Wildest River in Borneo, by Tracy Johnston
The Medicine Man!!
tropic thunder!
The Blue Lagoon.
Gorilla's in the Mist although very sad.
JAWS! Love the movie!
Thanks team! I'm going to watch every movie listed! Currently in the middle of Blue Lagoon, it's great!!
If you'd like a few more, how about The Emerald Forest and The Mosquito Coast?
Maybe Rain (1932)? I'm a fan of watching it during the rainy season. It's like having an incredible stereo!

Thank you! I'll make sure to check them out. How do you enjoy living on the mexican beach? Are you still looking for a dog sitter?
Apocalypse Now.
PK, I love it here. I feel luck (almost) every day.
Indeed, we are still (always?) looking for someone to help out.
foofie: that brings back fond childhood memories. It was Xmas day... Grandma bought us all a VCR and Apocalypse Now was the first movie my dad rented for the family. :>
LOST.
Not a movie, but still chock full of awesome.
