Team Superman!!

How is this match up even fair??

Superman is hot!
  

 

Ben Affleck is…

well…

not.

Superman was born with super powers.

 

Batman has a car, 

a suit 

and some really strong cords.

That's it!!

In a head to head battle, 

Superman wins. 

Every time. 

Why?

Just look at that head!!

Epic.

Today was Epic.

The movie.

It came out today.. This is the new movie put out by the same people who made Ice Age. I tell you this in case you don't have 5 kids who have been begging to see this show for the past 8 months. I do.

But the movie wasn't the only epic going on.

First there was the crew. .  Seven children and one adult to be exact..To say I was slightly outnumbered would be an understatement. I had my five along with two of my brother's kids. Pretty epic.

Then there was the concession stand. I ordered a large popcorn with the free refill already refilled...not in another bag. That would make too much sense and be far too easy. Nope, the second bag was actually put in two large trays.  I also got two large sodas with 5 extra cups.

I had to make two trips.

And as epic as that was, the distributing of said goods was epic times two. Pouring, dividing, spilling, refilling, passing, counting, positioning, spilling.

But my epic didn't start until Epic started.

As I looked down that long row of children, I saw eyes glued to the screen, smiles and giggles, whispers and laughter, enjoyment that you can only see on the face of a child. Isn't that why we do these things? To create memories; both for them and for us? 

Mission accomplished.

Epic, indeed.

So I Married a Deaf Man: Super cool specs

I love going to the movies. Especially the 3D ones.

Okay, that's a lie.

I don't love 3D movies. I'm not impressed with them at all. If I am going to pay and arm and a leg to watch a 3D movie, I want to feel the wind in my face, the water in my hair, the sand in my toes, a breath on my cheek. I want to weave and bob in the action scenes. I want to flinch at the explosions. I want to actually feel like I am there.

In my opinion, 3D movies are overrated and overpriced. But then again I am a tightwad and a cheapskate. Anyone with me on this one?

That being said, you do get to sit in a movie theatre full of people wearing interesting glasses. That's the only plus side for me.

Except, I get that no matter what movie I go to. At least I do if Hubs comes with me. You see, they now have some pretty amazing glasses for Deaf people who go to the movies.

They look like this:



What happens is the words are shown across the glasses. So instead of having to look down at the captioning device that hooks into the drink holder, he can look directly at the screen and watch the movie while reading the captioning.

Convenient, right? Plus he gets to look hot in these super cool, ever-coveted, slightly larger than life glasses. Bet you wish you had a pair of these.

Ummm....ahem....yeah...me too.

But at least I'm not interpreting movies anymore.
