The Muppets have always been funny, and apparently they always will be funny. I like this trailer, not just because it’s for a movie I’m looking forward to seeing, but even more because it’s so creatively funny. It first aired during the Superbowl. Watch it to see how they spoof online comments and tweets as ifContinue reading “Funny Trailer – Muppets Most Wanted”

Monty – My Comic Discovery
I grew up on comic strips. That was back when everyone got their newspapers delivered to their doorstep every single day. My dad would always take the front page, my brother always grabbed the sports page, and I always went straight to the comics page. I guess that just goes to show how non-intellectual IContinue reading “Monty – My Comic Discovery”
Wool is Toxic Fun
Wool by Hugh Howey tells a post-apocalyptic tale like none that I’ve ever read. I give it a definite star for originality and great storytelling. The setting is planet earth, many years in the future, after the human race has destroyed 99% of itself. All that remains are the inhabitants of a huge underground silo thatContinue reading “Wool is Toxic Fun”

My Favorite Jane Austen Movies
It’s Valentines Day, so I thought I should share my expertise on romantic movies. I call myself a secondary expert on romantic movies because they are the only kind of movies my wife will watch. Over the years I’ve watched hundreds with her. So, I’m only an expert because of her. Her favorites are movies basedContinue reading “My Favorite Jane Austen Movies”

We settled on The Croods,Continue reading “Surprised by The Croods”

Plugged In says, “It’s a bright, silly and breakneck-paced good-guy-vs.-bad-guy tale that offers kids and kids at heart two big lessons: Believe in yourself, and letContinue reading “The Lego Movie”
Harry Potter
The following review was written by my daughter, Chloe, age 11. One of my favorite book series is Harry Potter. It’s clever, original, and extremely well written. I’ve read most of the books twice! There’s adventure, humor, and just a little bit of romance in the last two books. I almost cried when I watched the last movie because it was itContinue reading “Harry Potter”
