    HOTEL TRANSYLVANIA 2 :: Review & Giveaway

    January 4, 2016 /

    “A joy for both kids and adults alike.”                                                             – Greg Wakeman, CinemaBlend Hotel Transylvania is one of our family’s favorite movies!  We had a chance to see Hotel Transylvania 2 when it came out at the theaters and loved it as much as the first one.  The Hotel Transylvania sequel reunites ‘Drac’s Pack’ of loveable characters, led by “Vampa” Drac (Adam Sandler, Grown-Ups) as they try to put Mavis (Selena Gomez, Spring Breakers) and Johnny’s (Andy Samberg, TV’s “Brooklyn Nine-Nine”) son Dennis through a “monster-in-training” boot camp to bring out his vampire side. But little do they know that Drac’s grumpy and very old, old, old school dad Vlad (comedy legend Mel Brooks) is about…

    What if Man and Giant Dinosaurs lived side by side?

    November 30, 2015 /

      My daughter and I were super excited to see a preview of The Good Dinosaur at The TCL Chinese Theatre in Hollywood a few weeks back. I love the concept the movies asks:  What if the asteroid that forever changed life on Earth missed the planet completely and giant dinosaurs never became extinct? I am such a fan of stories that show our world differently.  And what a fun story The Good Dinosaur is for kids and big kids.   Check out some of fun clips from the movie: Pixar Animation Studios takes you on an epic journey into the world of dinosaurs where an Apatosaurus named Arlo (voice of Raymond Ochoa) makes…

    Suffragette Brings to Light Women’s Fight for Equality

    October 24, 2015 /

      Last week I was asked to attend the theatrical release for the Focus Features  movie Suffragette at The Academy of Motion Pictures Arts & Sciences in Beverly Hills.   I read the preview and it sounded like my type of movie so I asked my husband to be my date and accepted the invitation.  The movie was released today, October 23rd, in selected theaters in Los Angeles and New York with a full release  Thanksgiving week.  So if you don’t live in any of those areas be sure to check it out next month.  And be sure to bring your tween, teen, sister, mother and/or friend because this is a movie everyone young (and young-at-heart) should see!  I…
