Disney on Ice


Mickey and Minnie's Magical Journey had its first showing at the MTS center last night and I was there in section 218. We had fabulous seats and had a lot of fun. It was well presented and was just under 2 hours with the 15 minute intermission. The cartoon shows presented were the lion king, the little mermaid, lilo and stich and peter pan. Mickey, Minnie, Donald, Daisy and Goofy were also present but weren't on the ice long they were there more for introductions and let the other cartoons have the stage. The show really kept your attention focused on the ice and to what was going on, you definitely wont be bored at this event. Since I am a big kid I'd say that I would go see this again in a heartbeat. Its like watching your cartoons come to life :D

anyway, I took around 500 photos but decided to keep 125 of them and they are already posted on my site.

red river freeze - winnipeg roller derby


It was the Murder City Maidens vs the Red Deer Nightshades. It was held at the winnipeg convention center and I've always been kinda curious on why you walk through metal detectors and...they don't really check you. We just heard..oh ..it will beep anyway because of change, keys etc..and they just let you through. not that anything happened or ..well would ..I just find it curious.

Anyway, it was a fun event, even though I was cheering for the Murder City Maidens, the Red Deer team was very good as well and won the event.

I do have some photos and I will show the link to them now :D

tenacious D

with Jack Black, the story of his "band" ...funny but pretty dumb in parts. I have seen the movie before. Meatloaf plays his dad in the beginning of the movie.

Jack and his partner go after the magic guitar pick that was supposed to be created from a devil's tooth...
kinda goofy ending really...

3.5 out of 5

would I watch it again? I don't know...

the condemned

This movie has stone cold steve austin in it.. first time seeing this movie or even hearing of it...
seemed pretty good of what I watched of it..
I was making dinner at the same time.

the movie itself reminded me a bit of death race, another cool movie that pits prisoners against each other...
death race with a car..and condemned on foot...
pretty good scenes and premise..the prisoners were dropped off on a secluded island given weapons and well..the last one to survive got his freedom while the whole thing was taped live and streaming over the Internet.

I would definitely watch this again

4.5 out of 5 stars

mirrors

I watched Mirrors with Kiefer Sutherland, although I have seen it before. It does get quite gruesome in parts but thats ok with me.

Kiefer finds trapped spirits in a burned out store...as a night watchman and some of the things he seems is pretty gross but cool at the same time. I rather enjoyed the movie..

4 out of 5 stars

Aliens in the attic

I just finished watching Aliens in the attic and I found it pretty funny. I am happy that I watched it and I would definitely watch it again. Storyline was about some kids that went on a family vacation went to fix the satellite on the roof and found 4 aliens...in the attic..who then tried to mind control the kids. One of the aliens did put a mind control device on the teenage daughter's boyfriend and that was pretty funny..especially when the other kids got a hold of the controller.

very well done.and very funny.loved it

5 out of 5 stars..
and I would definitely watch it again :D

man on the moon

I watched Man on the Moon with Jim Carrey it was of course about the life of Andy Kaufmann..
fantastic movie. I think he played him really well and kept me interested throughout the movie.
Funny that I haven't watched the movie until yesterday. I guess I've been meaning to ..but never did..
I try to watch all of Jim's movies because I like him as an actor and comedian.


I would give it 4 out of 5 stars.
and yes I would watch it again.
