Movie, Review

Big Shots…

I love the buddy movie. The road trip movie. And the movie about finding out who you are. When I was a kid I really liked the movie Big Shots. Big Shots starred a young Darius McCrary, Eddie Winslow on Family Matters, as Scam. Amazon gives the synopsis of the movie as.

Following the death of his father, suburbanite Obie runs away from home and winds up on Chicago’s South Side. After being mugged, he befriends con artist Scam. The two then embark on a Down South adventure involving gangsters, the police, and a search for Scam’s father.

I remember the two kids driving, getting scared by a tough guy gangster who said something line, “I eat bullets and S#it Ice Cream.” As a kid I loved that line, it was so tough. I remember watching the movie more than once and it was a good little movie. Unfortunately it is not on DVD at this time. But it is on VHS.

Mad Gab

Have you been hooked on the Mad Gab Phenomenon. Well maybe it isn’t a phenomenon but the game is addictive and fun. We played it last night with my cousin Carissa and her boyfriend Chris. The game is so much fun as well as funny to play. We played with Mom, Dad, Tara, Erik Carissa, Chris and Allison and I. I forget how the teams were split up but we enjoyed it a lot. The most fun is watching the other team try and get their answers. Listening to the team trying to get their answers while knowing the answers yourself is hilarious. The game is worth buying to play with friends and family. Spend a night at home and play Mad Gab. There is even a new DVD game for Mad Gab.
