My mom gave Alex the "Alvin and the Chipmunks" DVD this week and he's already obsessed with it. "SHIPMUCKS! SHIPMUCKS!" he shouts excitedly at the screen in between laughing hysterically at the little computer generated rodent's hijinks and grooving to The Witch Doctor. I'm so glad to add something new to the DVD rotation of the puppy show, the puppy show, the puppy show and for a change, the puppy show (the puppy show is 101 Dalmations) that I'm willing to lift my previous ban on live action children's movies (invoked simply because they are completely intolerable).
It's not bad, ya know, for a live action children's movie, though I'm sure I'll be hating it with the fire of a thousand suns by next week when I've seen it 507 times. There is one line in particular that I love however, Dave Seville is talking to a woman at the grocery store about kids and she says "Some days are better than others huh?" and he replies "and some days you just want to close them in a box, leave the box in a park and run away". Yea, I can totally relate to that.
