The Artist

January 25, 2012

A silent movie in 2011?  Who’d have thunk?  Not me that’s for sure, but I am certainly glad that someone did. A silent film star faces the reality that “talkies” are coming but can’t bring himself to lower to that level.  Amazing acting, although kinda cheesy in this day and age because of the “overacting’ [...]

The Muppets!

November 23, 2011

I remember the Muppets from when I was a kid.  My cousin would do a great impression of a Muppet laugh, just that simple open mouth head bobbing no actual sound coming out laugh. The Muppet show ran through my teenage years and was akin to the Smurfs in their cult following.  But for years [...]

Real Steel

October 1, 2011

Tell me I am going to see a movie about robot boxing and I will tell you “No, I’m not”. Tell me I am going to look at Hugh Jackman for two hours and incidentally there will be robots boxing, and I will reply “oh, okay, let’s go.” That was the attitude my friend Sylvia [...]

The Help

July 23, 2011

I have raved about the book, I have told you about my anticipation of the movie.  Well I can anticipate no more, I saw this last week and I have to say it totally lived up to my expectations. There were of course, parts of the book that were left out and while I noticed [...]

Cars 2

June 22, 2011

I was fortunate enough to attend an advance screening of Cars 2 tonight with Caitlyn.  Full disclosure: I have never seen Cars in it’s entirety.  Cars is one of the “in-between” movies.  My kids were too big and my grand kids were too little.  But Caitlyn had seen it and was excited for Cars 2, [...]

Prom

April 30, 2011

Do you remember your High School Prom?  Honestly I don’t remember much of it.  Obviously I didn’t go to school in a Disney film heh. I didn’t really want to see this movie, I have never seen any of the Disney High School Musical films and I am quite proud of that.  But I owed [...]

Tron Legacy – Sundtrack Review and GIVEAWAY

January 1, 2011

I think I saw the original movie back in 1982. But to be perfectly honest with you, if I did see it, well I was probably too high to remember it.  Again to be honest, it would have been the only way I would have gone to see this kind of movie anyways.  I am [...]

Tangled

November 4, 2010

A few weeks ago, I (and Megan and Caitlyn) got the chance to go to a screening of the new Disney movie Tangled. It is the story of Rapunzel, which honestly I didn’t remember too clearly. What a GREAT movie.  Megan and I laughed and cried at all of the adult innuendos that Disney is [...]
