The Husband and I have been fans of Toy Story since the first one came out. In fact we are fans of all the Pixar movies. When we heard that toy Story 3 was going to be made we were thrilled. We waited patiently for over a year until it finally came out June 18th. In the meantime, with all the toys, ads, and clothes popping up with Toy Story all over them, our son started to get very interested in the characters as well. So, we set plans to go see the movie together at the IMAX in 3d.
The first movie I took our son to see was "Alvin and the Chipmunks: The Squeakuel". He liked it, but towards the end he got antsy and started to run around. I didn't know what to expect this time, but I wanted to try again. (It had been about 5 months since). It was the four of us (yes, I took our new baby) and my in-laws. I figured there would be enough people to hold him and entertain him if need be.
It took three of us to get him to wear his glasses, he didn't understand the concept. Finally, my husband got them on and he sat very still the whole time, amazed by this movie. My mother-in-law and I kept checking to make sure he was awake. He was, and when the movie was over, he cried. Needless to say, he loved it.
This all happened on Wednesday, and I was feeling like going to the movies again Friday. We aimed for Shrek 4, but it wasn't playing so we went for Toy Story 3 yet again. Things were going great, my son was enjoying his popcorn (which he called popcorn chicken) and water, had on his glasses.... then.... "Ok, Mama, let's go now." Half way through, we left. Ugh! it was $25 for him and I to see it and I even used a coupon.
The next day we all went to another theater that WAS playing Shrek and we saw that together. It was good too, also in 3d.
So, three movies in a week. The baby sleeps through them and I cover her ears when it gets loud. Now, I just need to go see Sex and the City 2 and I will feel complete with movies for now :) I think I will see it on Thursday.
