Thankfully, it wasn't moving too quickly. (bada-bing!)
When the little guy was younger, we all got a kick out of the Veggie-Tales and 3-2-1 Penguins videos from Big Idea Productions. My lovely bride saw the latest movie was out - "The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything" - and we saw that the other night.
Now, you've got to understand that there's certain things in the Veggie-Tales world that simply go without saying. Vegetables don't have legs - so they get along by bouncing. They don't have arms or hands... so... well, the best we can figure is that they've got limited telekinesis abilities, which are very directional and short-ranged. And after a while, you simply don't notice they don't have arms - you 'fill in the blank', so to speak, and when a character WITH arms shows up, you're kind of taken aback.
The movie was a lot of fun, with plenty of visually interesting bits and jokes that work on both an adult and kid level. (The carnivorous Cheez-Curls were hilarious - a snack food that eats YOU right back!) I'd suggest it - it was a lot of fun.
There was a poster for another movie - "Jumper". Based on (and from what I've seen from the trailer, fairly close to,,,) the book by Steven Gould, it's starting in a few weeks... and looks to be worth seeing. What would YOU do if you found you could teleport?
(There apparently was a sequel written in '04 or '05 - I'll have to see about getting it.)
I like Steven Gould's writing - Wildside was a lot of fun also, and would make a good movie.
The last movie that really caught my interest is a new one by Pixar - "WALL-E". THAT one looks like a lot of fun indeed.
So - what movies have you spotted lately that look to be worth the money?
