Meet Me on Monday #54

Monday, October 24, 2011

Another week rolls around! Only a few more of them until we hit the Mayan-prophesied catastrophe, right??? (Nothing like a bit o’ sarcasm to start off the Monday, eh? Can be a better jolt than coffee, sometimes). OK OK I’ll get started. Here are this week’s questions. 1. My favorite kind of animal is _______? [...]

Friday Fragments: Why?

I was never one of those children who always asked “Why?” as a kid. I do remember thinking it ALL THE TIME but I wasn’t very vocally inquisitive as a very young child. I’ve since made up for it. *** Why are “historical” movies so unhistorical and riddled with errors, even when it’s a very [...]

It’s with incredible joy that I read this news report about another up and coming movie from the Sherwood Films dudes. If you have never seen “Facing the Giants” or “Fireproof,” GO SEE THEM. Good, good movies. The same folks are making a new movie, “Courageous.” My kids have been talking about it for a [...]

New Animated Film: The Jesus Movie

Wow! This looks stellar! It’s a spanking new, animated movie The Jesus Movie. Not much has changed in the world in 2,000 years. Governments STILL quake in fear over Christianity, because Christians devote supreme loyalty to God, not a group of tyrants or bureaucrats. Did you know this is the main reason why Christians are [...]

It’s continuing! Yay! Let’s cut to the quick: Questions: 1. What are you wearing right now? My usual: knit pants, a t-shirt, and a flannel shirt on top. My hair is loose (almost waist-long). I’m still wearing my makeup from this morning. 2. Do you have freckles? Nope. Never wanted them after reading “Freckle [...]

I saw the Pixar film “Up” recently. What a cute, cute movie!!! I love Pixar– my favorite film is “The Incredibles” (I even shelled out $20 to buy the DVD), but I also LOVE “Finding Nemo” and “Monsters,” and “Toy Story.” Those guys (and gals) at Pixar are just hilarious!! But I love “The Incredibles” [...]

I cannot believe how fast Walmart and P&G have been rolling out the movies. When they heard that moms were clamoring for wholesome, family-friendly movies for their families, Walmart and P&G released “Secrets of the Mountain.” It is an excellent movie, and we own the DVD– we watch it all the time! Shortly after the [...]

My Netflix Movie Recruitment: The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry

Thursday, December 9, 2010

Netflix kept “recommending” this movie called The Secrets of Jonathan Sperry, based on other movies I liked. The cover of the DVD didn’t catch my eye at first. It has a photo of a smiling old guy (Gavin McLeod) with a bunch of boys. Maybe it was a movie about fishing or skateboarding. *yawn* I [...]
