Thoughts on the Nintendo Switch & I Found Super Mario Hot Wheels

MY Super Mario Hot Wheels Finds
Photo-A-Day #4216

I know that I am way behind in talking about this but I’m excited about the Nintendo Switch. This is the next gaming system from Nintendo and is coming out in March 2017. Can March get her sooner? Please!

This looks like a really amazing system. I love the Wii U and especially the Gamepad. This has been great to play for the past five years. I bought it so that I could play Skylanders Giants and so many other games. I can play while the TV is on so I can do two things at once.

I was playing a lot tonight. I am currently playing Skylanders Imaginators and having a great time. I made a couple of new Skylanders today and also opened some of the mystery treasure chests that contain nine pieces for creating Imaginators. I am still not sure why you would buy these but I got a couple to make a video, of course, I did not have time at all to actually put the video together. We made parts of one but I didn’t complete it. I need to compile them all.

Speaking of not completing something. I only found 5 out of the 6 Super Mario Hot Wheels Character cars. I was unable to find Yoshi. I was going to show you them when I found all six but I ended up playing video games all night while watching TV with Allison. So, I made this very quick vlog today.

When I attended the Doctor Strange Press Junket last week, I was one of 25 bloggers there for Walt Disney Studios (Disclosure: All-Expenses Paid). We interviewed, probably the only person that Doctor Stephen Strange respected in the hospital, Christine Palmer, played by the delightful Rachel McAdams. Rachel entered the room all smiles and laughter which never let up through our entire interview. She was engaging and very interesting. She had some great insight into the movie, Doctor Strange. What follows are some excerpts from that terrific interview that we had with Rachel.

Rachel Entered the room with a smile from ear to ear and a big cup of coffee to get through a long day of interviews. We greeted her with loud applause and plenty of high energy.

Question : How is it joining the Marvel universe? What’s it like?

Rachel McAdams : Yeah. It was, it was everything I had hoped for and more. I assumed I would be working with you know the crème de la crème and I was. So it was just great to be in such great hands. Everything was just so well done, so beautifully thought through and well-crafted. They didn’t even make me pretend that much with green screen. I mean that’s how considerate they were. They had real things on fishing wires to actually try and scare me. They are very thoughtful people.

Question : Were you a Marvel fan prior to doing the role?

Rachel McAdams : I hadn’t read the Dr. Strange comics growing up. I was reading Judy Blume and stuff like that. I’ve since educated myself. The Doctor Strange ones are so different from the other comics which is nice. I love the movies but I hadn’t read a lot of the comics.
