The Plot
Here’s my short take on the movie… There’s a guy with a wife and teenage daughter. He’s an old hostage negotiator turned desk-bound police chief in a suburb and his family relationship is on the rocks. The suburbs are safe and not much crime happens. That is until three mischievous teenagers decide to follow a rich (and corrupt) accountant to their home way up in the hills. The kids take the family hostage but they didn’t know the accountant had to make an information drop for some rich evil guys. These bad guys see the chief on TV so they take HIS family hostage and forces the chef to either rescue the rich family or recover a disk for them. The movie was tense with some drama and the past catching up to the chief and there was some good action scenes and sup rises. A lot of the movie was predictable but I wasn’t expecting it to end the way it did.
Things I Learned From This Movie
- wealth always comes at a price
- going from an action packed negotiator to a police chef in a boring suburb will make you sad
- tell a little kid that he’s an action star in a video game and he’ll get a little too much into the role
- never do criminal activities with a strange guy you met two weeks ago
- everybody drives an SUV in the burbs, including the police
- having your wife and kid kidnapped and held at gun point will fix your ‘on the rocks’ problems and make you a tighter group
- when somebody says “wait in the car” it never happens
- Tuesday is usually low crime Tuesday
- during a hostage situation that lasts hours, nobody ever needs to drink or eat anything
- teenagers aren’t very good kidnappers
My Rating: 3 out of 5

It’s a renter for a Sunday afternoon.

I felt like sharing my horoscope today, so here it is.
Virgo August 23-September 22
Think of yourself as a visionary, someone whose thoughts are so far ahead of the game, people just stare at you in wonder. What to do now? Put those thoughts into action! Organize a group of your fellow cohorts and turn your ideas into reality. Take it to the streets — or take an invention public — and introduce the rest of the world to your full capabilities. Acting now can lead to very promising results for the future.
Have a nice day.

So I went to the drive-thru today, and ordered a six piece chicken nuggets. I finished paying, and the guy at the window said “I put a couple of things in the bag that aren’t yours. See if you can guess what they are.” This guy was an idiot, so I laughed. Repeatedly.
Note: This is an analogy, so play along.

I felt this was kind of amusing. I was on my way somewhere this morning, and there was some kind of a race along the back roads. So… I waited for the police officers to let me go, and I waited for 20 minutes. I was only the fourth car to go, so I can only imagine how long the people behind me were stuck. Ugh.

Just to state how stupid this whole evolution versus intelligent whatever is, this site has textbook disclaimers to be printed out and placed inside your student’s textbook. Then stand back, look at it and realize how stupid it is. Next, realize that there are MORE IMPORTANT THINGS TO THINK ABOUT than that crap. Again, realize that there has been more proof of evolution, and less proof for creation. I guess that because you think evolution is where it’s at, we all should.
Here it is: evolution should be taught in school, creation in church. Viola. Church and state separate. And we can go on to worry about other things. Maybe like how the sun is really a dude riding in a chariot because that is how the Greeks thought of it. Now that’s silly. To think that their religion is right. Ha!

The Plot and my thought
The Incredibles are the award-winning Pixar team’s superhero family. It starts in a time where Superheros are sought after for their abilities to save the day, however some things happen that cause all Superheros to go into hiding. Bob Parr is forced into retirement and him and his super family try to blend in during their daily activities while living in suburbia. His Superhero wife is a stay at home mom now raising three kids while Bob works for an insurance company. The tough part is they miss the crime fighting days, and they all have talents they’re not allowed to use. That is… until Bob aka Mr. Incredible takes on a secret mission by an anonymous! Hilarity and mayhem ensue!
I enjoyed the movie from start to finish. It’s truely a flick that’s fun for the entire family.
Things I Learned From This Movie
- People will sue for just about anything
- If you can lift a train easily, a smaller rock statue can be heavy, what?
- The safety of the world has a monitary value
- There are only superheros in the USA
- Superheros can get fat and out of shape
- Don’t pick on nerds, they will come back and try to kill you
- There are no mexican superheros, just black and white.

Well, I would guess that because George Bush hates black people, black people hate George Bush. But I did find some people that black people love.
