Is Friday night your movie night? At our house we have a movie night about twice a year, it just isn’t a regular thing. This is mostly because my husband and I don’t have the same taste in films and it’s so expensive to buy tickets and pay for a babysitter for four children. My [...]

How many of you became first time iPad owners over the weekend? In no particular order here are the most used apps on our well loved iPad.

This is an unusual storybook app and one that will appeal to fans of the movie How to Train Your Dragon. This is a story but the screen is divided into three sections. On the left side of the screen is the story’s text and on the right side of the screen you’ll see a [...]

How To Train Your Dragon is the storybook app version of the upcoming DreamWorks movie of the same name. The app features screenshots from the movie as illustrations and they’re beautifully done. From what I saw in the app the movie’s animation is going to be great. To be honest I’ve not been that interested [...]

Have you ever visited the IMDb (Internet Movie Database) website?

The app features several buttons on the bottom of the screen. The “DVDs” button provides you with a list of newly released DVDs [...]

  Netflix is pure genius. First they brought movies right to my mailbox and I no longer had to take my children to the creepy video store.  Next they brought movies to my computer and I found I was able to watch all sorts of glorious BBC literary adaptations whenever I wanted to. Finally, almost [...]

I wasn’t one of the many, many people who saw the new “Where the Wild Things Are” movie this weekend. I’ve heard good things about it but I’m a bit nervous about seeing one of my favorite children’s books on the big screen. If I go see the movie then those are the images in [...]

If you’ve read my review of Flixter then you’ve already read almost everything I’m going to say about the Fandango app. I opened it up and could have sworn I was looking at the same app. It operates along the same lines giving you a list of movies that are showing in theaters near you. [...]
