What made me happy today? Watching 'Rise of the guardians'!
It's kind of like the Avengers, but for kids. Even though adults will like it too :-)
This 2012 Dreamworks movie wasn't a big box office success, even though it got good reviews. A shame if you ask me, because I totally love it!
It's a movie about how the Guardians (Santa Claus, the Easter Bunny, the Sandman, the Toothfairy and Jack Frost) have to defend the children of the world against the Boogeyman aka 'Pitch'. The graphics are absolutely stunning. The story follows the regular path a bit, but is still very entertaining mostly because of the awesome characters! Yes, we all know them, but Dreamworks gave them a little twist.
Santa Claus: heavily tattooed, with a thick Russian accent.
The Easter Bunny: Australian accent, carries boomerangs which he can use as weapons.
The Sandman: can't speak so he communicates with images in (of course) sand above his head.
The Toothfaire: more of a manager in this movie, plus she's a fairy covered in feathers.
Jack Frost: chip on his shoulder, but loves to have fun.
The Boogeyman: pretty much as you'd expect him to be, but Jude Law's voice really adds something here.
So if you don't know what to do this weekend, I suggest you get a copy of this movie at your local video store / dvd rental place; put the kids on the couch and enjoy this one together. Of course, you don't need kids to enjoy this one :-)
Just make sure to watch the movie all the way through, as there are some extras in the credits!
(I know this is up really early; I have a driving lesson this afternoon followed by some social obligations)
