Beverly Hills Family Robinson

Time for a Walt Disney Television movie. This is Beverly Hills Family Robinson! 

The mom is a famous TV host and she video tapes her family going on a vacation to Hawaii. Their yacht is taken by pirates and they end up on a deserted island where they build an amazing tree house with some surfer who also happens to be living there. 

The best part is Buffy is in it, and she is so young! This was definitely before her slaying days. 

Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas

Our first movie of 2016 is a sequel - Beauty and the Beast: The Enchanted Christmas. The gang is all there and they have a flashback to a Christmas they spent together when they were all still household objects. 

It was a straight-to-video film and it really wasn't the best Disney sequel, but it was nice to see it right around Christmastime. The kid didn't seem too impressed. 

I cannot wait to see the Live Action version next year! So many exciting things are happening with Disney movies in the next couple of years! 

Angels in the Endzone

This week we watched the sequel to Angels in the Outfield - Angels in the Endzone. I don't think either of my boys were really entertained, but this cast was pretty interesting! David Gallagher and Matthew Lawrence! Oh, to be a pre-teen reading those teen magazines again. 

The kid doesn't even remember watching this one. It was predictable and a bit boring, but we got through it. Definitely not comparable to the original.

We went to the local high school to see them play football. They lost, but what are you going to do? It's not like we have any angels out there helping our team. The kid had a blast since it was his first football game ever. 

Air Bud

Get ready for weeks of Air Bud movies. We start our first one with the original Air Bud. 

The first Air Bud really is sweet and reminds me of some other classic 90's sports movies, but it adds in the dog aspect, which was also pretty big in the 90's. 2 for 1 deal. The villain is pretty good as far as villains go. The kid cried and cried at the part where (SPOILER) the boy tries to abandon Buddy. It was very emotional. 

We took inspiration from the movie and decided to practice shooting hoops at the park down the street. It was a nice day outside and there are so many parks around here, might as well use them.
