Pete’s Dragon is Now in Theaters

I got Allison a Petes Dragon Funko Pop

While we have yet to see it, Pete’s Dragon has hit the movie theaters. I really want to see it soon. It has been called the most magical movie of the year, PETE’S DRAGON! It has also been said that this is one of the best family movies of the year and equally perfect for kids and adults alike! I’ve been reading posts from my friend who have attended press events for the movie and those who have seen sneak previews of the movie and they have been very favorable. I look forward to introducing my kids to this version of Pete’s Dragon. They already know the original as it is Allison’s favorite movie. I found it fitting to get her the Elliott Funko Pop as a little surprise.

Below I have two hilarious Bryce Dallas “How-To” videos where she “teaches” you how to create a dragon costume for your cat and make delicious dragon cupcakes!

A reimagining of Disney’s cherished family film, “Pete’s Dragon” is the adventure of an orphaned boy named Pete and his best friend Elliot, who just so happens to be a dragon. “Pete’s Dragon” stars Bryce Dallas Howard (“Jurassic World”), Oakes Fegley (“This is Where I Leave You”), Wes Bentley (“The Hunger Games”), Karl Urban (“Star Trek”), Oona Laurence (“Southpaw”), Isiah Whitlock, Jr. (“Cedar Rapids”) and Oscar® winner Robert Redford (“Captain America: The Winter Soldier”). The film, which is directed by David Lowery (“Ain’t Them Bodies Saints”), is written by Lowery & Toby Halbrooks based on a screenplay by Malcolm Marmorstein and produced by Jim Whitaker (“The Finest Hours,” “Friday Night Lights”), with Barrie M. Osborne (“The Lord of the Rings: The Fellowship of the Ring,” “The Great Gatsby”) serving as executive producer.

Bryce Dallas Howard and Pete

For years, old wood carver Mr. Meacham (Robert Redford) has delighted local children with his tales of the fierce dragon that resides deep in the woods of the Pacific Northwest. To his daughter, Grace (Bryce Dallas Howard), who works as a forest ranger, these stories are little more than tall tales…until she meets Pete (Oakes Fegley). Pete is a mysterious 10-year-old with no family and no home who claims to live in the woods with a giant, green dragon named Elliot. And from Pete’s descriptions, Elliot seems remarkably similar to the dragon from Mr. Meacham’s stories. With the help of Natalie (Oona Laurence), an 11-year-old girl whose father Jack (Wes Bentley) owns the local lumber mill, Grace sets out to determine where Pete came from, where he belongs, and the truth about this dragon. Disney’s “Pete’s Dragon” opens in U.S. theaters on August 12, 2016.
