Showing kids "G" rated movies during lunch?

Does anyone know the policy on this for their own school. The teacher and I show movies like "toy story" and "the incredibles" during lunch time for the kids. They come in with their lunch, sit down, and watch the movie quietly. They may talk with one another while they are there. Is this wrong of us? Some other teacher and aide have complained to the department chair about this. We checked with the assistant principal and she said it was okay to show G rated movies as long as the teacher was okay of having them in class. What is your opinion on this? Why are others making a big issue?

Our school has taked about

Our school has taked about having a reading corner. When students are done eating, they can go to a designated spot and have a book read to them. We are a PreK-12 school so our reader could be a "celebrity", a high school student, someone from administration or a parent.
