I took my baby girls to the movie Meet the Robinsons. They enjoyed it, even though my seven year old appears to be scared of all things 3D, which is the version we went to see. There are two versions. The regular 3D animated version, and the TrueD 3D jump-at-ya version. Allow me to state [...]

Went to the movies for the first time in a while. Tabitha and I went and saw Eragon. First allow me to state that I’ve never read the book(s), so I had no particular expectations going into this.
Overall the movie was pretty good. Nothing to write home about, but really nice special effects, and when [...]
