Tonight we took Eva and Andrew in to Boston to a press screening of The Good Dinosaur. I can’t post anything about the movie at this time but will have a full review coming on Wednesday. I can say that the kids had a great time and they were very well behaved. When we asked Andrew his favorite part he was very insightful. I am looking forward to having this movie to watch anytime. We really liked it.
Andrew and I went into Boston tonight to catch a Press Screening of the ‘Peanuts’ movie. I hadn’t given the movie much thought since many properties from my childhood have been handled so poorly. But I love ‘Peanuts’ and figured that I would give it a try to see if it held true to the source. The trailer and commercials certainly looked spot on but what about the tone. Was the movie handled well?
You’re going to have to wait for Friday for my full post about the movie and the content of it but I will say that it is something I would recommend you see.
Andrew was very good in this solo screening with me. We headed up to the theater around 5pm and ate our dinner there. Popcorn, pretzels, Junior Mints and Orange Juice. This kid has weird tastes. He would eat a Junior Mint and then take a swig of his OJ and tell me that it tasted like vanilla. Now, for anyone who has ever brushed their teeth and then forgotten and taken a sip of juice, you know how gross that is. Apparently Andrew loves it. Go Figure.
We had a fun time and lest you think I left Eva out on purpose for any reason, I did not. She had play practice for her show this weekend. So we will have our movie night this coming Monday and see ‘Peanuts’ again. It is worth seeing twice. Continue reading Sharing ‘Peanuts’ with Andrew
