My wife LOVES Sound of Music so I have been put through it's paces many times on VHS, once it hit DVD I bought it for her and we watched it that night, I actually stayed in the room and ENJOYED it. The PQ appeared to be greatly improved as well I guess I will have to buy it on BR if/when it becomes available. The music in a lossless format should be great.

Depends on what you consider Family Appropriate. My 4yr old doesn't like Lord of the Rings.
I tried to watch it with him and paying attention to it from a kids perspective, while there may not be too much gore, it certainly has its fair degree of violence. Less of a concern is the tone of the film. *So* much of it is dark and menacing. There is very little of the movie that little kids would enjoy. Bilbo's Eleventy-First birthday being a great exception.
Of course any kids coming to an open house aren't *really* going to be watching he movie... its background so maybe it would work.
I second "any Pixar Movie on loop". Toy Story 2 gets my vote.

It's actually rather strange to think that people would be hauling little ones around with them to go house shopping. Most movies of 3 hrs length will have 'something' in them that warrants exclusion where young eyes and ears are concerned.

Wall-E on a loop would be perfect.

I don't suppose you could train the Realtor to hit the play button after the movie stopped if it is less than 3 hours in lenght.

It wasn't obvious on the Sony S550 BD player how to do an A-B loop, but on my "ancient and archaic" Toshiba HD-A2 HD-DVD player, I press the "Repeat button" and get about 6 options, including "Repeat Title"... Works like a charm. I am thinking of either Toy Story 1 or 2 since they also fill my 16:9 screen. :-)

"Ice Age" or similar would also be a good one.
