Brink!

On to a Disney Channel Original Movie, Brink!

It is another rollerblading movie but is more focused on the sponsored teams and competitive sports side of it. I've always liked this one and what pre-teen didn't have a crush on the stars?! This is one I definitely enjoyed re-watching. 

Beauty and the Beast: Belle's Magical World

This week I watched Belle's Magical World. It did not do the original story any justice.

It seemed like a couple of episodes of a failed TV show put together and turned into a movie, like the Atlantis 2 we watched. I don't think it did the original story any favors and they could have done so much more with a sequel. I think this was made during that weird Disney time when they just kept throwing out random sequels to movies in an attempt to make some money. Anyway, this movie is miss-able. 

Air Bud: Golden Receiver

We watched the sequel to Air Bud, and this time it was all about football. 

Another couple of villains show up in the sequel wanting to make Buddy work in their circus and Buddy gets kidnapped again. It is the same boy in the movie, but now he is a little older and upset about his mother dating a new guy. This guy buys Josh a football and they find out that Buddy is excellent at another sport. Buddy joins the football team with Josh - because the township still hasn't made a rule against animals who don't attend the school playing for the team. 

It was a pretty good sequel, and the only other Air Bud movie that actually played in theaters. We were inspired to play football while down the shore this weekend. 

A Knight in Camelot

This week we did something completely different and watched A Knight in Camelot. 

Of course I'm being sarcastic. This movie and A Kid in King Arthur's Court, which we watched last week, were both loosely based on Mark Twain's "A Connecticut Yankee in King Arthur's Court". Also, Sandy from this movie is played by the same girl who played Katey in the previous one. She must love knights or Old English...  

Whoopi was very lucky that random things from her desk were sent back with her after her machine malfunctioned. The old laptop ended up saving her life! Thank goodness it had enough battery. 

Overall, this movie felt random. There were some good parts, and I definitely love Whoopi, but I just couldn't understand certain parts of it, like why Merlin was so shady and then becomes her BFF in the end. 

We took inspiration from the castle and decided to paint our own. It doubles as a birdhouse, just in time for Spring.

A Bug's Life

Moving on to our first Pixar movie in the challenge! 

We loved watching A Bug's Life. It was the kid's first time seeing it and it is fun to watch him fall in love with the same characters I did when I was little. My favorites were the caterpillar and lady bug - they are so funny. Other than that, bugs freak me out.   

We decided to make another dessert- this time it was Dirt! Some call it Mud. Either way, it is yummy.
