Interviews with the Cast and Filmmakers of The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part out in theaters 2/8
A group of bloggers had a chance to meet the cast and filmmakers of The LEGO Movie 2: The Second Part starring Chris Pratt, Elizabeth Banks, Will Arnett, Tiffany Haddish, Stephanie Beatriz, Phil Lord, Christopher Miller (Producers/ Screenwriters) Mike Mitchell and Trisha Gum (Directors) last week at the W Hotel in Beverly Hills. They were such a fun group of people and you could tell how much care went into making this movie – from the actors who love what they do, to the producers who are big kids themselves and super talented (they just finished Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse), it was my pleasure to sit down with all of them…

Curiosity May Be the Single Most Important Trait for Success in School
This week I came across an article that really hit home with me and confirmed my thoughts on the importance of creativity and why parents and educators should encourage this trait. New research published in the journal Pediatric Research in April suggests there may be one simple trait that can help kids learn and succeed in school, regardless of their socioeconomic background.

The results were consistent for both boys and girls, too. The…

Interview with the cast and filmmakers of Tully
I’ve been a big fan of Charlize Theron for quite some time now so when I was asked to be part of the press junket for Tully of course I was thrilled I’d be in the same room as this talented actress.

Kidding aside, I really enjoyed interviewing the cast and filmmakers of this rather touching movie. If you are a mom – you can’t help but be touched by the humanness of the story. Diablo Cody and…
