Allison and the kids had no school today so everyone was home. They had a day planned out of the house so that I could get some rest before work. That was so nice of them, however, I didn’t do that. Instead I went to see Batman V. Superman: Dawn of Justice with my Dad. It was a very last minute decision on my part. I was at the house and the kids were having a visit with our friends and their kids. I was doing a few things around the house like pulling together all the crib and baby stuff that we no longer needed so that we could donate it to some people who needed it. I just figured that I would catch the movie before I heard the reviews from all the critics. I wanted to form my own opinion and it was pretty low going into the movie. You can see what I thought of it from the video below.
I bought the above Deadpools Assemble Minimates back in the Summer but haven’t opened them up as of yet. However, with the Deadpool movie coming out I wanted to open up the set so that I could display them, play with them and take a bunch of photos of them. The set is pretty great too, so many fun accessories. I love the accessory that looks like Thor’s hammer spinning around. That was a a nice touch.
Our surprise shipment from Disney Publishing of the Zootopia Books was great. The kids loved the books and I enjoyed reading them to the kids. I didn’t realize that the read-a-long would be the whole movie, sure there are some parts left out but I know the whole plot now. I don’t think that it would have been a major surprise otherwise but it does have some fun twists. I now think of it as a sort of Disney version of 48 Hours, the Nick Nolte/ Eddie Murphy movie in that Judy Hopps has 48 hours to solve a crime. That and she is teamed up with a less than trustworthy character in Nick Wilde. It should be a very funny movie overall. I can’t wait to take the kids to see it and also to get to play the Disney Infinity 3.0 figures of Judy Hopps and Nick Wilde. More in the vlog including what I thought of many Batman and Superman animated movies.
