The Kids React to Back to the Future

We’ve been introducing the kids to some of our movies from childhood. My favorite one from childhood was Back to the Future. It is still one of my most favorite movies ever and I can watch it over and over and see more that I’ve missed. This time around we watched the movie with the kids. Both of the kids were into the movie. They watched attentively and Eva was having giggle fits at certain parts. She laughed every time Doc Brown was on the screen. He did steal many scenes with his mannerisms and facial expressions.

Andrew started out pretty well but quickly succumbed to the time of day, we started the movie at 7pm. The kids usually start getting ready to sleep not long after 7pm. Andrew made it up until Marty actually went back to 1955. Then he was down for the count. Eva remained awake throughout the movie and I could tell that she really enjoyed it. There was only one part that Eva didn’t like and that was when Doc Brown is shot by the Libyans. She got through it and enjoyed the rest of the movie. I wonder if she knew that he wouldn’t remain dead?

Eva also had some interesting questions about time travel and also the time space continuum. Actually, Andrew asked me about the time space continuum right before the movie. He learned that term on Alvin and the Chipmunks. Crazy. I made a little video of the kids and their questions and reactions to the movie.

An 80’s Romp Through LEGO Dimensions

80s Team Up

I received the Story Pack for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, the E.T. Fun Pack and the Gremlins Team Pack for LEGO Dimensions from Warner Interactive Entertainment to play with and review. I decided to play in the Gremlins World with as many 80’s characters as I had opened. I also played with Newt Scamander and Sonic the Hedgehog. It was a lot of fun with these characters.

I also bought the Gremlins Team Pack before I had one sent to me and so decided to do a giveaway. Entry into the giveaway was done at this video https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1AFuPS1ZgBI and the winner was Mary Jo.
