I see the multi-generational appeal of the Shrek movies, but I especially like the Puss in Boots character. When I found out that Antonio Banderas would be lending his voice to the 3-D full length movie spin-off, I knew that we would be taking the boys to see it. I would look silly going by myself. Unlike the rest of the...

It’s a proven fact that anything can be made better by tacking “of the dead” on the end of it (corollaries of this include “in bed” and “in my pants”). Maybe that’s just because I dig me some zombies? Just add walking corpses, and your favorite clichés become newer and awesomer. ...

For the last several years, I have been under a self-imposed exile from movie theaters. I had banned movies because the experience was more annoying than entertaining in most cases.

Chrissy and I are very involved parents, so we don’t normally get to go out by ourselves very often. Every night, it’s dinner, bath, books and then bed for the kids. Not to complain, but it’s nice to get a “Date Night” every once in a while. Cassie agreed to babysit for us while we did the...

Aiden was so good when we took him to see Toy Story 3 that was it was an easy decision to take him to another movie. Aiden and I went to see a matinee showing of Tangled in 3D. And like last time, he was very good during the entire movie. He didn’t make barely a sound, and even shushed me once or twice. I guess I was...
