Wordless Wednesday- Mountain Creek

MC2

Last year this time we were skiing New Jersey, Mountain Creek Style.  There is still plenty of time left to hit the slopes and we are hoping to get there while the snow is falling. Fingers crossed everyone will be back to feeling great and we can get there the end of February. See you at MountainCreek New Jersey.

You’re Invited To The NYC Screening

Of black or white #LoveHasNoColor

By now I am so sure you have seen the commercials on tv for Black or White. Every time the commercial airs I love the movie a little bit more. The hashtag says it all #LoveHasNoColor. Black or White is the story of a grandfather (Academy Award winner Kevin Costner) who is suddenly left to care for his beloved granddaughter.  When her paternal grandmother (Academy Award winner Octavia Spencer) seeks custody with the help of her brother (Anthony Mackie), the little girl is torn between two families who love her deeply.  With the best intentions at heart, both families fight for what they feel is right and are soon forced to confront their true feelings about race, forgiveness, and understanding. Anchored by an all-star cast and based on real events, the movie is a look at two seemingly different worlds, in which nothing is as simple as black or white. In theaters Jan. 30. Rated PG13.

From The Mind of George Lucas Strange Magic In Theaters January 23

Love Blooms As George Lucas

Brings Us Strange Magic

In Theaters January 23rd

strangemagic23group

We all love to be loved don’t we? We all want to be in love? For me it was and is what my entire life revolves around. The love of my life, my hubby of 25 years, the love for my children, family and friends keeps a smile on my face and give me a reason to wake up every morning. When I was asked to preview Strange Magic I basically ran…not walked ot the theater. Although the characters had me a little worried that the movie might be scary for my eight year old daughter I am happy to report they were just fine and some actually became quite lovable. From the mind of George Lucas (and featuring the talents of Evan Rachel Wood, Alan Cumming, and more!) comes Strange Magic— a tale of magic, a tale of misunderstandings, and most of all, a tale of love!

 

 

Strange Magic tells the intertwining stories of several fairies, elves, goblins, and other creatures in a mystical forest divided between Darkness and Light. At the center of it are Marianne, a fairy princess who becomes jaded against love after her fiancee Roland is caught cheating, Sunny the elf, a hopeless romantic whose unrequited love for Marianne’s sister Dawn dampens his otherwise cheerful demeanor, and the Bog King, ruler of the dark half of the forest. When the Sugarplum Fairy is set free and a love potion gone wrong joins all the wrong couples together, it’s up to Marianne and Sunny to set things right (while learning a thing or two about love themselves along the way!)

Inspired by Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream and set to a rollicking soundtrack of popular songs from the last sixty years,Strange Magic is an ode to love like you’ve never seen before. From the film’s opening notes (Elvis Presley’s Can’t Help Falling in Love With You, a personal favorite) to its big finale (a well-placed sequence featuring, among others,  Wild Thing) you’ll be clapping your hands, tapping your toes and singing along as Strange Magic takes you on a wild and exciting ride!

 

You and your family will definitely love Strange Magic— we sure did! Check it out in theaters starting today, January 23. See you at the movies!

Sponge Bob: Sponge On The Run App is Awesome!

Nickelodeon and Paramount Pictures Brand New Mobile Game

Our family loves Sponge Bob. Our family loves gaming. So, putting Sponge Bob and gaming together is going to gain some major attention in our house. Recently we had the chance to check out the new Endless runner app inspired by the upcoming The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water in theaters February 6. Love that hilarious Sponge? You will definitely want this game in your hands!

Bikini Bottom fans can venture off the beaten path with the all-new SpongeBob SquarePants game, SpongeBob: Sponge on the Run, based on the upcoming The SpongeBob Movie: Sponge Out of Water, in theaters February 6.  The endless runner mobile game is available now for iOS and Android and coming soon to Amazon app stores.

In the app, SpongeBob and Plankton are racing to find the lost Krabby Patty formula through 3 seaworthy locations including Bikini Bottom, Apocalyptic Bikini Bottom and a real-world beach.  When he is not running, SpongeBob is flying past obstacles with Plankton’s jetpack, floating in a bubble through a coral forest, racing through Bikini Bottom in the Patty Wagon, or has Plankton jumping through his surreal imagination.  When the running gets tough, SpongeBob gets heroic as he transforms into Super SpongeBob.  The new upgrade allows SpongeBob to knock through any obstacle in his way without risk.

Here are some of the awesome game features:

Customize SpongeBob with unique costumes like Caveman and Pirate

Run through iconic locations including Bikini Bottom, Apocalyptic Bikini Bottom, Jelly Fish Fields and on a real-world beach

Travel between locations with Plankton’s time machine

Become Super SpongeBob and knock everything out of SpongeBob’s path

Power up with Plankton using shields and magnets

Hilarious dialog between SpongeBob and his arch-rival Plankton

Compare distance and scores after your run with other players (for iOS and Amazon only)

Custom animation and voice-overs with SpongeBob and Plankton created just for the game

SpongeBob: Sponge on the Run was developed by Playside Studios, creators of the App Store’s Worldwide Editor’s Choice game Catch the Ark.
