To be honest, when I saw the previews for Avatar on TV, I wasn’t that impressed. I thought the Avatars looked cheesy – and that the special effects looked alright. My husband and I decided to take our two boys to see it on Christmas Eve in 3D – which was my first 3D movie experience!  Any ounce of skepticism quickly disappeared as the movie began. Avatar is quite possibly the most spectacular movie I’ve ever seen. It’s absolutely breathtaking.  James Cameron is pure genius, plain and simple. The story itself was interesting, the writing was so-so, but the special affects absolutely steal the show. In my opinion, Avatar is the most visually stunning movie ever made. I took my 7 & 9 year old boys to see it, and they loved it. I think it’s appropriate for 7+.

Bottom Line: LOVED, LOVED, LOVED IT! Don’t see it in 2D, I can’t imagine it’s very good that way. If you’re going to see it – you have to see it in 3D – there are no words to describe how amazing it is.

I was a bit nervous to see Sherlock Holmes, not gonna lie. Not because of Robert Downey Jr. and Jude Law - whome I LOVE… but because of Guy Ritchie directing it. Guy doesn’t have the greatest track record with movies as of late.

But I should never doubt Robert Downey Jr., who has been making brilliant career moves for the last several years! Sherlock Holmes was awesome! I loved it! I thought RBJ and Jude Law made an awesome team! They really had amazing chemistry, and it made the movie a ton of fun to watch.

Of course Rachel McAdams was lovely as always. I thought Guy Ritchie did a really great job with the movie, I can’t imagine it being any better than it was!

BOTTOM LINE: If you liked Iron Man, you’ll love this movie. It’s classic Robert Downey Jr., and Jude Law really shined as his BFF. I like seeing more of Jude, it’s been a while since he had a successful movie!

I’m taking the rest of the day off to be with my family, and I hope you’re doing the same! I’m thankful for each of you, and I appreciate you spending another year with me!

Cheers and hope each of you have a great Christmas!!

Love,
Jocelyn

I was invited to a screening of Chris Rock’s new documentary Good Hair this afternoon. It’s been a helluva week, so I decided to take the afternoon off, and go see a movie. I’ll write my review soon (but I loved it!).

I’m in the process of making some changes to ICYDK.  Call it housekeeping if you will. I am making some changes – some you guys might not even notice.  But I wanted to open it up to you – for suggestions.  What would you like to see on ICYDK?  What are your favorite/least favorite features? I’d love your feedback, but please be nice. 

How do you feel about the look? Layout?

I’d love constructive feedback, but don’t be too hard on me.
