Wow, that was some marathon sleeping we did last night! Phew!
Happy Easter to everyone out there. Hope the ever-elusive bunny brought you loads of goodies. We got some Easter bunny marshmallows and gummy bears, very tasty!
Yesterday we went to see Clash of the Titans in 3D, bright & early to beat the crowd (and also to avoid the crazy new prices for 3D shows!). The movie is pretty good and is a nice action flick but not worth it to see it in 3D at all. There are only a handful of scenes that are actually in 3D, and none of them are as impressive as Avatar, not even close. Bottom line: Save a few extra dollars and see the regular 2D version. You won't be missing anything.
