This award-winning animated family film from Disney/Pixar is one of my favorite releases in recent memory. I went to see the film in theaters without having seen a single preview or knowing anything about the storyline. I left the theater knowing I had to get the film the moment it was released on digital and Blu-ray. […]
I was skeptical about the Trolls movie before I saw it the first time. I then fell in love with the whole idea (music and all) once I saw it.

I felt the need to point out a few of […]
It is an annual tradition for us to carve a pumpkin around Halloween every year. Same as many other families. My talent in this area is subpar at best. I do enjoy it though. Our kids also seem to be interested in the whole process. We’ve done this on video two years ago with our oldest […]
Star Wars is back. And in a big way. Today was Force Friday 2 and it ushered in a number of new Star Wars items related to the franchise and latest movie installment, Star Wars: The Last Jedi. I visited my local Best Buy this afternoon to get a look at some of the latest Star Wars drones and Droids™ on sale.
