I’m going to Skywalker Ranch and Pixar. (Don’t hate me.)
You know that thing we Cubans do on New Year's Eve? Not just the eating of the 12 grapes and throwing the bucket of water out into the street, but the one about carrying a suitcase out into the middle of the street at midnight if you want to travel in the coming year? If you are confused about any of these Cuban New Year's Eve Traditions, ...
Movie Review: Big Hero 6
A few weeks ago Eric and I had the good fortune to enjoy a pre-screening of the newest Disney Animation film, Big Hero 6. Because we live a few area codes away from Burbank, where the Walt Disney Animation Studio is located, we turned it into a Road Trip/Date Night. First of all, let me say that I had no preconception of the movie, nor ...
Big Hero 6 Press Junket at the Disney Animation Studios
Last year I had the privilege of attending an event at the Disney Animation Studio and I was overwhelmed by pretty much everything I saw and experienced. That was for Frozen.

And if you did read all about it, you know that I'm going to be completely ...

Jonathan worked on the film, Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day last summer as a featued background actor. It started almost exactly a year ago when Jonathan decided he might like to give acting a shot. He signed up with a ...
Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day Press Junket
I had the absolute pleasure to attend the press junket last week for the newest Disney release, Alexander and the Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Day. A day at the beautiful Four Seasons Hotel in Beverly Hills? Yes, please. I had already seen (and immensely enjoyed) the film, so I was really looking forward to hearing what the actors had to ...
We Did the Conga at the Hollywood Bowl. Thank you, Gloria.
Eric and I went to see Gloria Estefan perform at the Hollywood Bowl on Saturday night.Let me just tell you how beautifully our Southern California weather performed as well. It was that magical kind of summer night - Not too hot. Not too cold. A slight Summer breeze. Seriously, So Cal. You sooo won.Of course, you know how much I love the ...
