Formats of the Future/Ice Age Continental Drift

The Extraordinary Family Adventure Floats to Blu-ray™ 3D, Blu-ray™ and DVD on December 11

Ice Age: Continental Drift will be releasing on special 3D and Digital Download formats, and this feature will aim to be an informative guide for parents on the advantages of utilizing these new formats with their families. We'll discuss benefits such as the stunning visuals on the 3D version, and easy viewing access on any iPad or tablet.

Sub-zero heroes Manny, Diego, and Sid embark upon a high-seas adventure after their continent is set adrift. Using an iceberg as a ship, they encounter sea creatures and battle pirates as they try to reunite with their herd. In the wake of these upheavals, Sid reunites with his cantankerous Granny, and the herd encounters a ragtag menagerie of seafaring pirates determined to stop them from returning home.

Highest Quality Images

 

The special 3D format for Blu-ray provides the highest quality images out of any other 3D format on the market. It comes in the specific format known as “format packing” in which the original content does not lose resolution when viewed in 3D. This means that you are watching the clearest image possible every single time you watch the movie.

Home Theater Experience

 

 

 

You don’t need a fancy home theater built into your home to get an incredible home theater experience. The special formats allow you to simply watch the movie in your living room and have it look just as it would on the big screen. This is great for quiet family movie nights as well as large gatherings and slumber parties.

Mobile Viewing

 

 

A convenient feature of the special formats is that they make your viewing experience mobile. It is now possible to watch Ice Age: Continental Drift anywhere you go! This is perfect to take in the car for long family road trips. Also, parents can watch the movie while they wait for their child during a dentist’s appointment or soccer practice.

 

De-clutter Your Home

 

A small yet important benefit to the Digital Download format is that it allows you to de-clutter your home by not having a physical DVD or Blu-ray copy to store. Once the movie is on your computer, you may watch it on multiple platforms if you have a gaming console such as the Play Station 3 or a media streamers box such as Apple TV. Additionally, you can contribute to living a green lifestyle by “going digital” which the Ice Age gang would fully appreciate.

Lotto Lucy (A James Bay Novel #3) by Kathleen Irene Paterka (ebook review)

Winning the lottery: $70 million
Mending family relationships: Priceless


When James Bay journalist Lucy Carter wins the lottery, good fortune seems guaranteed. But even $70 million in cold hard cash can’t help Lucy when it comes to dealing with some cold hard facts. No amount of money will buy back Grandma's mind nor buy Lucy a reprieve from a strained mother/daughter relationship.

After a twenty year absence, Lila’s suddenly back in town. Lila says she’s moved to James Bay to keep an eye out for her daughter Lucy… or is it Lucy's money that Lila has her eye on instead? When an auto accident forces mother and daughter together to live under one roof, even a luxurious 4,000 square foot condo seems like a tiny bungalow, and Lucy suddenly has her hands full with a whole new set of problems she never expected.

MY REVIEW

I have now read all 3 books in this series and I have to say it is one of the best series of books I have had the chance to review. This book is very well written and will have to hooked from the very beginning. I am sure I will be reading this book again in the near future and if there are any other books in this series I will be reading them.  I highly recommend this book (and this book series).

I give this 5 out of 5

Baby, It’s Cold Outside: Indoor Camping Tricks

Relive your summer this December 18^th with Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days on Blu-ray, DVD and Digital Copy

Everybody’s favorite wimp, Greg Heffley (Zachary Gordon), is back for three times the fun in the latest film based on the super-popular book series! When Greg’s dad (Steve Zahn) threatens to send him to military school if he doesn’t stay out of trouble, Greg finds all-new ways to land himself in the doghouse! For starters, Greg’s in over his head when he pretends to work at the swanky country club where Rowley’s family has a membership. Things don’t go much better on a father-son camping trip with the Wilderness Explorers, and then there’s the Heffley’s new dog, Sweetie, who fetches even more trouble for Greg in this hilarious family film!

Greg has to learn how to camp with his dad as a summer activity, and for this feature, we will give kids and families tips on how to bring the fun of camping indoors for wintertime. These will include, how to make s’mores in the oven and the best way to build a tent inside.

S’mores 101

S’mores are one of the yummiest camping treats and can be easily made indoors. First, gather the classic ingredients: graham crackers, Hershey’s milk chocolate, and large, fluffy marshmallows. Place a couple pieces of chocolate on one half of the graham cracker. Next, heat the marshmallow. You may heat the marshmallow over the stovetop or in the oven as an alternative to roasting over a traditional campfire.

For stovetop: Turn flame to high heat. Place the marshmallow on a skewer and hold above the flame until toasted.

For oven: Set to broil on high. Place a plate on the oven rack in case the marshmallow falls off the skewer. Hold skewer in the oven until marshmallow is toasted.

Once toasted, place the marshmallow on top of chocolate and stack the other half of the graham cracker on top. Now eat and enjoy!

Pitching a Tent

Why sleep in a boring old bed when you can build an awesome indoor tent? There are several different ways to pitch a tent, some being simple while others a little more complicated. Here are a couple suggestions of different ways to do it!

Rope and Sheets: Tie a rope to two large, stable pieces of furniture that are a good distance apart. Make sure the rope is tight. Drape a big sheet over the rope, making certain that the ends touch the ground. Place a stack of books on the bottom of the sheet to hold the tent in place.

 

 

A-Frame: If you want to build a legitimate indoor tent, the A-Frame is a great DIY project for the family. You will need whitewood moulding, a popular dowel, a drill, measuring tape, a pencil, fabric, thread, elastic, and scissors. First, you build the frame with the wooden materials and drill. Then you make the cover by sewing the elastic on the fabric to loop it onto the frame.

See here for specific instructions: http://builtbykids.com/build-a-beautiful-indoor-a-frame-kids-tent/

Movie Marathon

 

One of the perks to camping indoors is that you can have a movie marathon of all your favorite camping films. The best way to view them is to set up a projector on a large blank wall so the movie fills the whole space. Or even better, project the movie onto the ceiling! That way, you can lay back and relax. Some camping film favorites are Stand By Me (1986), The Parent Trap (1998), Heavyweights (1995), RV (2006), and of course, Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days.

Fun & Games

Every great campout includes games and silly activities. Our top picks for games are good ol’ playing cards, Catch Phrase, and Charades. Another fun camp tradition is to tell ghost stories. Turn out the lights and set a lantern in the middle of the circle to create a spooky ambiance. Make sure everyone gets a turn to share his or her favorite urban legend. But don’t make it too scary!

MY REVIEW

Well this is not the usual kind of game I play but I figured I would try this game anyways because you just never know .

I played this game for an hour and I already got stuck in the game and  I had issues controlling the boat. I am not a big fan of games that you use the keyboard to control and  I think this game would have been better with a game controller instead of using the keyboard.

The graphics are pretty good. The sound though is pretty good with realistic sounds.

If you are into these kind of simulation games you might like it but for me it wasn't my cup of tea.

Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure (on Blu-Ray) Review

Keanu Reeves (The Matrix) and Alex Winter (The Lost Boys) star in this outrageous comedy about two ditzy dudes from San Dimas, California. Bill (Winter) and Ted (Reeves) spent so much time forming their rock band, The Wyld Stallyns, that they're flunking history. A guardian angel from the future, Rufus (Carlin) come to them with a bodacious solution: a time traveling phone booth to take them into the past to learn from history's most influential people. Their journey turns out to be a blast...but will they learn enough to pass their class?

MY REVIEW

Well Bill & Ted's Excellent Adventure is finally on Blu-ray. If you have not seen this movie yet I suggest you see this because it is such a fantastic funny movie.
I have seen this movie often since it first came out back in the late 80's and it is one of my favourite comedy movies.
I found the movie not loud enough and ended up turning up the volume a little higher than usual but other than that it is pretty good quality. The bonus features were a little boring to me but some of you might find them interesting.

 I think if you liked this movie before I think you should get this on Blu-ray.

You can purchase this movie online and in stores now.

Just Dance 4 for PS3 (review) #CleverJD4

Thank you to Ubisoft for sponsoring this post. Please click here to learn more about Ubisoft. I was selected for this opportunity as a member of Clever Girls Collective. #UbiChamps

First off I have to say that this is not the kind of game I would usually play because I am horrible at dance but dancing is fun and it is fantastic to relieve stress and I was going through the end of a long deployment so I very much needed something to help me with the stress and excitement of my husband coming home so that is why I picked this game to review and I sure am glad I picked it because this game helped get rid of some of the stress.

First dance I did was Call Me Maybe by Carly Ray Jepsen. I actually did this song twice because the first time I did it my dog got in the way so my score wasn't so great but the second time I had a good score.

Next one I tried was What Makes You Beautiful by One Direction . I only did this one once and I got a great score!

I have played this game a few times during the past 2 weeks and I have to say this game is super fun and the entire family  can play this one because there are song for young and old from Jailhouse Rock  to Call Me Maybe.

I also tried Just Sweat and I must say I did work out a sweat and it was super fun doing it so I didn't mind. I did the 10 minute one because I am out or shape but I could have done the longer ones because I found 10 minutes was all the difficult so I think next time I play it I will challenge myself a little bit.

This is a fantastic game to have out and play with family and friends  this holiday season because it will help burn off a lot of the calories from all the yummy food you will be eating.  You can play this game solo or with up to 4 players.


You can buy this game for PS3, Xbox 360, Wii and Wii U in store and online  like Amazon.com.

I highly recommend this game.

The cats at Briarswood Cottage are lucky. After being rescued from the local Cats’ Home by Ma Katz, they live out their days in luxury under the watchful eye of Buster, the mogfather. But all that’s about to change…

When the local mayor announces that the cat population is spreading a deadly disease, their lives are in mortal danger. There’s no time to paws!

It’s a Catastrophe is a hilarious hairball of a read for ages 8 to 108.

BUGS BUNNY SUPERSTAR (DVD review)

Original Theatrical Date: December 19, 1975

What was it like to work in Termite Terrace, birthplace of Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck and a veritable horde of cartoon icons? Get a taste of that crazy and creative fun factory in this loving and droll documentary, hosted by ace animator Bob Clampett. Featuring interviews with fellow Termite Terrace residents Friz Freleng and Tex Avery and narrated by Orson Welles, Bugs Bunny Superstar includes nine complete cartoons that are prime examples of the collaborative efforts of Warner cartoonists, ink-and-painters, effects artists and others. "No idea was too outrageous," Clampett says. Seeing rare home movies of the animators as they act out ideas adds to that sense of unrestrained creativity.

Available now on DVD

MY RVIEW

 I really like this DVD.. It explains how Bugs Bunny ,Daffy Duck and other characters were created. At first I thought it might be a little boring documentary but it was actually pretty interesting and it is great to see the old cartoons. I think this is a great DVD for those who absolutely love Bugs Bunny cartoons.

Orders from Berlin by Simon Tolkien (book review)

Orders from Berlin (Inspector Trave and Detective Clayton #3)

It’s September of 1940. France has fallen and London is being bombed day and night. Almost single-handedly Winston Churchill maintains the country’s morale. Britain’s fate hangs in the balance and the intelligence agencies on both sides of the Channel are desperate for anything that could give them the edge.



Albert Morrison, ex-chief of MI6, is pushed over the banister outside his London apartment. He falls to his death at the feet of his daughter, Ava, but it is too dark for her to see the attacker before he escapes. Two Scotland Yard detectives attend the crime scene: Inspector Quaid and his junior assistant, Detective Trave. Quaid is convinced that this is a simple open-and-shut case involving a family dispute. But Trave is not so sure. Following a mysterious note in the dead man’s pocket, Trave discovers that Morrison was visited by Alec Thorn, deputy head of MI6, on the day of his death. Could Thorn—who is clearly carrying a flame for Morrison's daughter—be involved in a plot to betray his country that Morrison tried to halt, and if so, can Trave stop it in time in this gripping and intelligent thriller?

MY REVIEW

This mystery/thriller novel by Simon Tolkien is the second book from this author I have read but this is the third book in this series. I was hooked from the first few pages .I lost track of time and ended up going to bed much later than i should have but it was worth every minutes of it. I can't wait to read more books Simon Tolkien. If you love suspense in novel then I highly recommend this novel.

This book will be available in book stores near you December 11th 2012

The acting was good and the story was ok but it really wasn't funny.I am very disappointed in this movie and I personally would not waste my money on this movie and I do not recommend it.
