    The NUT JOB 2: Nutty by Nature Out in Theaters August 11th

    August 12, 2017 /

        Today is the day when The NUT JOB 2: Nutty by Nature comes out!  You just might want to take the kids this weekend and check it out.  We really enjoyed this movie and were laughing along with the kids.  The cast in The NUT JOB 2 are amazing and I don’t think you can go wrong with Will Arnett as the lead character.  In The NUT JOB 2, Surly Squirell (Will Arnett) and the gang are back.  We are once again in Oakton where the evil mayor has decided to bulldoze Liberty Park and build a dangerous amusement park in its place.  Surly and his ragtag group of animal friends…

    HBO’s Big Little Lies Immersive Theater Event at The Victorian

    August 5, 2017 /

      This week I was invited to attend HBO Home Entertainment’s immersive theatrical experience inspired by the Emmy-nominated HBO Limited Series BIG LITTLE LIES, which is now available on Blu-ray, DVD and Digital Download.  It was hosted at The Victorian which was originally built near the Hotel Miramar in 1892 as the residence of one the neighborhood’s founding families. The two-story building was moved to its current location in 1973. Heritage Square is a prime pocket of nostalgic architecture, with the California Heritage Museum and its sprawling lawn on one side and The Victorian on the other. Completely and carefully renovated, The Victorian has had its main rooms enlarged and added…
