G.I. Joe: Retaliation review, redemption for the franchise

G.I. Joe: Retaliation was supposed to be released in the summer of 2012. It was delayed; people blamed Channing Tatum, the competition it was up against or the filming of the 3D. G.I Joe: Retaliation is fast cutting action that seems like a cousin to the action films of the late 80’s. There are some laugh out loud funny one liners; the plot moves fast, there are dozens of ninjas, The Rock and Bruce Willis. Continue reading G.I. Joe: Retaliation review, redemption for the franchise

This week is a busy one. In addition to the work that must be done, I’ve got a couple of meetings and movies that I’m going to. The movie that I’m most jazzed about seeing is definitely G.I.

Oz the Great and Powerful review: perfectly entertaining

I’m not a fan of 3D movies and prequels are simply an excuse to revisit tired film franchises with new actors. I have thought both of those things in the past and sometimes they are true. Factor in that Oz is iconic material, you’re messing with arguable the most beloved movie of all time and any references will ruffle the feathers of people regardless of how well made the movie is. Rest easy denizens of Oz, the new movie is at its best- truly wonderful and at its worst an OK movie with lots of fabulous effects.

Extreme Mammals is a great addition to Fernbank for children

We do love going to the Fernbank Museum of Natural History. Having such a large and well planned out museum of natural history is a benefit to living in a big city. However, truth be told, we don’t get there more than a couple of times a year. Extreme Mammals just opened at Fernbank and is a great reason to discover-or be reminded of what a great museum it is. Continue reading Extreme Mammals is a great addition to Fernbank for children

All Through My Town is the go-to children’s book in the house now

I love to read. 3YO Mojo likes to read too. In a perfect world I’d have enough time to have a site devoted exclusively to comic and children’s books. I state that to preface the fact that our son likes books but is picky and certainly has his favorite books. Having said that; All Through My Town by Jean Reidy has been his go-to book ever since he picked it up. Continue reading All Through My Town is the go-to children’s book in the house now
