My Take on the Blu-Ray

Talk about a complete series. As a fan of this series, I was so impressed to find not only all of the episodes (as there were so many), but also the additional bonus features that were on it made it unique and special too! That being said, my daughters’ and my favorite episode by far has to be James Baxter The Horse. I cannot pinpoint why we like it as much as we do, we just do(It probably has to do something with how ridiculous the episode was!). Best of all was the value of this. For as many episodes that were on this, the true collector will be able to get this without breaking the bank. Get ready to hold your sides laughing in many of these episodes!

Maya the Bee is A Fun Family Movie

May 4, 2015 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

Maya the Bee
 photo disclaimer_zpsflpjm0lf.jpg

About the Movie

Maya is a little bee with a big heart. She dreams of an exciting life of freedom, fun and adventure – the world is simply far too interesting to stay inside a hive! Her funny attempts to fit in bring her into trouble with the Queen’s narrow-minded royal advisor, Buzzlina. With her best friend Willy, Maya buzzes out into the meadow on an exhilarating adventure of self-discovery.

 

While most bees believe that other insects should be feared, Maya can’t help but make friends with Flip the charismatic and eccentric grasshopper, Kurt the dung beetle and even Sting, a young hornet. But when the Queen’s royal jelly is stolen, it will take Maya and all of her bug buddies to figure out who did it and how to save the day!

 

One of the best-known and beloved children’s brands of all-time, the stories of Maya The Bee have been passed down among generations of families for years. Originally a German children’s novel by Waldemar Bonsels, The Adventures of Maya the Bee was published over a hundred years ago in 1912. Since the original publishing, the book has been translated into many other languages and enjoyed by children all over the world. In addition to the book, Maya The Bee is also a comic book series, appeared in various iterations as animated series and now a major animated feature film.



My Take on the Movie

Maya emerges from her little cubicle eager for life and very curious. She is not the typical bee. It seems the only other insects that appreciate her are her young bee friend, a violin playing grasshopper and a hornet, named Sting.

Maya wants to know where she can fly to encounter adventure and danger. With the help of other insects, Maya saves the queen by locating the missing Royal Jelly and the bees and the hornets become friends.

This movie is a wonderful family movie. There are so many good values to learn. Characters are caught in dishonesty and must pay the consequences of their actions. Truth prevails in many of the movie situations. Perseverance and the courage to follow your heart help Maya to continue her quest to save the queen.

I believe your family will enjoy seeing the movie and you will probably want to watch it more than once.

Inside Out – New Trailer #Insideout

March 13, 2015 by dadofdivas Leave a Comment

inside-out

From an adventurous balloon ride above the clouds to a monster-filled metropolis, Academy Award®-winning director Pete Docter (“Monsters, Inc.,” “Up”) has taken audiences to unique and imaginative places. In Disney•Pixar’s original movie “ Inside Out,” he will take us to the most extraordinary location of all—inside the mind.

 

Growing up can be a bumpy road, and it’s no exception for Riley, who is uprooted from her Midwest life when her father starts a new job in San Francisco. Like all of us, Riley is guided by her emotions – Joy (Amy Poehler), Fear (Bill Hader), Anger (Lewis Black), Disgust (Mindy Kaling) and Sadness (Phyllis Smith). The emotions live in Headquarters, the control center inside Riley’s mind, where they help advise her through everyday life. As Riley and her emotions struggle to adjust to a new life in San Francisco, turmoil ensues in Headquarters. Although Joy, Riley’s main and most important emotion, tries to keep things positive, the emotions conflict on how best to navigate a new city, house and school.

Notes:

  • Director Pete Docter is the Academy Award®-winning director of “Up.” He made his directorial debut with Disney•Pixar‘s smash hit “Monsters, Inc.,” which was nominated for an Academy Award for best animated feature film. Along with John Lasseter and Andrew Stanton, Docter developed the story and characters for “Toy Story,” Pixar‘s first full-length feature film, for which he also served as supervising animator. He served as a storyboard artist on “A Bug’s Life” and wrote the initial story treatment for “Toy Story 2.” As one of Pixar Animation Studios’ key creative contributors, Docter garnered an Academy Award nomination for his original story credit on Disney•Pixar’s Golden Globe®- and Oscar®-winning “WALL•E.”
  • Jonas Rivera produced the Academy Award®-winning “Up,” for which he was nominated for best picture. Prior to “Up,” he had worked on nearly every Pixar film since joining Pixar Animation Studios in 1994, beginning with “Toy Story” for which he served as production office assistant. His subsequent credits include “A Bug’s Life” (as art department coordinator), “Toy Story 2” (as a marketing and creative resources coordinator), “Monsters, Inc.” (as art department manager) and the Golden Globe®-winning “Cars” (as production manager).

My Take on the Movie

As someone that grew up with the Flintstones it was great to see new content tied into the WWE! I had no clue what to expect in this movie, but my kids and I had a ton of fun watching this. The story was strong and for me as a past fan, I loved being able to share the Flintstones with my girls alongside WWE characters that they were already aware of. The girls that the humor in the show was great and they were laughing like crazy throughout the movie. So get ready to laugh during a fun movie that will fly by faster than you could even imagine.
