My oldest girls (they are 15 and 13) both had steady babysitting gigs over the summer and, well, is it wrong when your kids start earning more money than, you know, you do?
So, my 13 year-old had a couple of bucks burning a hole in her pocket and offered to take my youngest daughter (she's 8) to see Ice Age 3: Dawn of the Dinosaurs and, I have to admit, I was sort of jealous.
SPOILER ALERT!
"It was the best one yet, but the poor squirrel STILL didn't get the acorn!!!"
I love the banter between Ray Romano, Dennis Leary and have a secret little crush of John Leguizamo, ever since playing Tybalt in Romeo & Juliet.
[heavy sigh]
Sid the sloth is sort of cute, right?
Aaaanyway, now that the movie was released onto DVD on October 27th (Holy Hannah Montana, is it November, already?) especially, for those of us who didn't make it to the theater on time (stupid economy) now we get a chance to see it, too!

Honestly, I don't usually get very excited about sequels and, in my opinion, something almost always gets lost in the storyline, or the main characters become old (seriously, Harry Potter should be graduating college, by now, right) and, well, why mess with a good thing?
Except, on the very rare occasion that everyone in my family and I really, really liked the movie (that's 6 different opinions, at last count) and we simply didn't want it to end -- Ice Age 3 Dawn of the Dinosaurs is one of those movies!

MORE ABOUT THE MOVIE: Manny and the herd discover a lost world of ferociously funny dinosaurs, including a cranky T. rex who’s got a score to settle with Sid! Meanwhile, Scrat goes nuts over the beautiful Scratte (pronounced: scrat-tay) but, is she trying to win his heart – or steal his acorn?
I love, Love, LOve, LOVe, LOVE the music (Queen Latifah is a Jersey girl, YO!) and IMHO (in my humble opinion) Ice Age 3 Dawn of the Dinosaurs is absolutely the prettiest (seriously, the design folks must have worked overtime, on this one) and the funniest of the series, but really bad for people who snort, when they laugh, like me.
