Dressing Like Bender …

Last night Eva told us that her cinema studies class is going to watch The Breakfast Club today and I said no way, you’re not watching one of the best coming of age 80’s movies out there without me. So I rented it last night and we watched it. Andy watched for the first 20 or so minutes and then went upstairs to play video games. I had hoped that Andy would watch it all but sometimes the attention span for movies is short. Eva watched the whole thing with Allison and me. She liked it and is all ready to start watching it again in class.

Today Andy came down in pretty much every flannel/hoodie that they own. Why? Not because it was April Fools, but rather they wanted to “beat Bender”. The character had several layers of clothing in the movie. So andy decided to one up the character. I did not catch a photo of what Andy was wearing this morning so I asked Andy to recreate the look for a photo tonight.

Captain America Brave New World …

The newest Marvel movie came out today, Captain America: Brave New World. In this movie Anthony Mackie plays Sam Wilson and he is the new Captain America after Steve Rogers gave him the shield. There was a Marvel TV show called The Falcon and the Winter Soldier. In that we see Sam becoming Captain America. They did a really good job of it, too. Now, this is the first time that there has been a Black Captain America and this is the first time that Mackie has helmed a Marvel movie as the main character.

I enjoyed this movie very much. There was a good blend of action and character development throughout. We even had some good cameos in the film. I’m looking forward to seeing a Sam Wilson Captain America in more movies.
