ALPHA & OMEGA in Theaters Friday September 17th Movie Giveaway

September 13, 2010 By 236 Comments

clip_image001We were invited to a pre-screening of the movie ALPHA & OMEGA this past weekend and were unable to attend because the kiddos were sick. I have been watching the previews and trailers on-line and in the theater for Alpha & Omega and it looks pretty cute. Alpha & Omega will be viewable in the very popular 3-D atmosphere if that’s something you are interested in but it will also be available on a normal screen too. We love movies with talking animals. The kids just enjoy it a great deal. I wish we would have been able to watch it, I guess we’ll just have to go when everyone is feeling better, or watch it when it comes out on DVD.

Trailer:

SYNOPSIS:

clip_image001[4]What makes for the ultimate road trip? Hitchhiking, truck stops, angry bears, prickly porcupines and a golfing goose with a duck caddy. Just ask Kate and Humphrey, two wolves who are trying to get home after being taken by park rangers and shipped halfway across the country. Humphrey is an Omega wolf, whose days are about quick wit, snappy one-liners and hanging with his motley crew of fun-loving wolves and video-gaming squirrels. Kate is an Alpha: duty, discipline and sleek Lara Croft eye-popping moves fuel her fire. Humphrey’s motto – make ‘em laugh. Kate’s motto – I’m the boss. And they have a thousand miles to go.

alpha Back home rival wolf packs are on the march and conflict is brewing. Only Kate and Humphrey can restore the peace. But first, they have to survive each other.

Secretariat Based on a Remarkable True Story Giveaway

September 13, 2010 By 108 Comments

I read a preview about Secretariat while I was stranded in an airport with my kids. Hah! It looks like a great movie. The actors are amazing, the line up is amazing and the story is amazing.

The story:

Based on the remarkable true story, “Secretariat” chronicles the spectacular journey of the 1973 Triple Crown winner.  Housewife and mother Penny Chenery (Diane Lane) agrees to take over her ailing father’s Virginia-based Meadow Stables, despite her lack of horse-racing knowledge.  Against all odds, Chenery—with the help of veteran trainer Lucien Laurin (John Malkovich)—manages to navigate the male-dominated business, ultimately fostering the first Triple Crown winner in 25 years and what may be the greatest racehorse of all time.

Notes:

  • In 1973, Secretariat became the first U.S. Triple Crown champion in 25 years, setting race records that still stand today in the Kentucky Derby and the Belmont Stakes.
  • Penny Chenery, now 87, is an integral resource in the making of the film.  She also appears as an extra in one of the film’s scenes. 
  • In 1973, Secretariat graced the covers of three magazines the same week:  Time, Newsweek and Sports Illustrated. 
  • Director Randall Wallace, whose directorial credits include “We Were Soldiers,” is the Oscar®- and Golden Globe®-nominated screenwriter of “Braveheart.” 
  • In 1999, the U.S. Postal Service unveiled a 33-cent postage stamp with Secretariat’s image. 

Against all odds, housewife and mother Penny Chenery (Diane Lane)—with the help of veteran trainer Lucien Laurin (John Malkovich)—navigates the male-dominated horseracing business, ultimately taking Secretariat on a spectacular journey to become the first Triple Crown winner in 25 years and perhaps the greatest racehorse of all time.

Secrets of the Mountain DVD and Soundtrack Giveaway

April 8, 2010 By 262 Comments

SOTM_poster_24x36Walmart contacted me about a movie they had made with Proctor and Gamble and at first I thought it was a joke. I even watched a few seconds of it and had to wonder, is this really a movie? In the background, you see all this product placement of “Great Value” and that is Walmart’s store brand. So I thought with it being April 1st and all someone was trying to get me. As I got to watching it further I though, this looks like a great film. The character development caught me and I mean, it looks like a family night at the movies kind of film. I want to find out what is going to happen to all of the characters.

 

Walmart sent me a teaser and a little care package with popcorn in it. You can watch it yourself here:

 

 

 

Plot Summary
Somewhere between the demands of her career, her ex’s wedding and her kids’ busy schedules, Dana James is noticing her tight-knit family starting to unravel.  An unexpected offer to purchase her family’s mountain property sets up a weekend road trip, which she hopes will bring her family back together.  But when they arrive, they quickly learn that the mountain is much more than it seems.  An ancient secret and a treacherous quest will test the family like never before.  It’s an edge-of the-seat thriller that reminds us that when times are tough, families don’t run away from problems – they run back to each other.The Mountain Photo: Philippe Bosse cell 514.932.4355

Excited about Despicable Me

April 8, 2010 By 1 Comment

Despicable Me is coming out this summer, it’s a cute children’s movie that takes place in a happy suburban neighborhood surrounded by white picket fences. Among this happy setting lies a house black as can be with a dead lawn. Unbeknownst to the neighbors, hidden deep beneath this home is a vast secret hideout. Surrounded by an army of tireless, little yellow minions, we discover Gru (Steve Carell), planning the biggest heist in the history of the world. He is going to steal the moon (Yes, the moon!) in Universal’s new 3-D CGI feature, Despicable Me.

Gru delights in all things wicked. Armed with his arsenal of shrink rays, freeze rays and battle-ready vehicles for land and air, he vanquishes all who stand in his way. Until the day he encounters the immense will of three little orphaned girls who look at him and see something that no one else has ever seen: a potential Dad. One of the world’s greatest super-villains has just met his greatest challenge: three little girls named Margo, Edith and Agnes.

Ben 10 Alien Swarm Live Action Movie From Cartoon Network #giveaway

December 11, 2009 By 169 Comments

   

I wanted the opportunity to give this movie, Ben 10 Alien Swarm, away on Mom Start because I have been so deep in Ben 10 Products this year. I felt like this is a great fit even though it looks way to scary for my kids to watch. Should be perfect as a Christmas Gift for older children though, the ones in the tween age boy category?

 

B10AS-DVD 3D sku

About Ben 10 Alien Swarm:

This is sequel to Ben 10: Race Against Time. The movie was released in November and is rated  TV-PG. This live-action movie was filmed in Atlanta, Georgia. The director of this movie is Alex Winter, Ryan Kelley as Ben, Nathan Keyes as Kevin, and Galadriel Stineman as Gwen. The script was written by the writer of Fantastic Four part 2, John Turman. The plot is that our world is threatened with an imminent invasion from a swarming alien menace. And there is only one hero brave enough, smart enough and tough enough to fight back – Ben Tennyson! But when Ben teams up with an outsider, he breaks rank with Gwen, Kevin and Max and risks losing against the toughest enemy he has ever faced. The stakes are high and the action is intense as Ben fights to protect our planet from the Alien Swarm!

New Trailer Release for Gotta Catch Santa Claus

September 22, 2009 By 1 Comment

I really want to see Gotta Catch Santa Claus and I’m not sure why. Perhaps it’s because William Shatner plays the voice of Santa Claus or perhaps it’s because it is a CGI. I’m not really sure it could also be because it’s about proving that Santa Claus is real.

Scheduled to be broadcast nationally on ABC Family during their annual "25 Days of Christmas" programming block, this funny and exciting new film is enjoyable for the entire family and features six fun new holiday songs. 

The trailer is here:
