I took my daughter and two grandchildren to see Kung Fu Panda 4. Grandpa Tom and MV (our son-in-law) opted not to come.
The story was predictable. However, this movie was beautifully drawn and colored. I like cartoon drawings, but so often the artists spend more time on the characters than the surrounding view. The rendered views in this movie were gorgeous. I concentrated on the art, as I used to when I attended mass as a child. Life presents many opportunities for entertainment.
The daughter and grandkids were laughing out loud, clearly enjoying every minute of it. That was the best part of the movie for me, being with them. I was still holding this experience close to my heart when I fell asleep last night, which made for good dreams.
After the movie, we went for ice cream at the creamery across the way. This has now become part of the movie viewing tradition for the four of us.
I had burnt butter bourbon flavored ice cream. It was amazing.

You had a wonderful day. We all need to do things like that occasionally
ReplyDeleteSo true.
DeleteYou and your daughter and grandkids have inspired me to put the first Kung Fu Panda DVD on hold at our public library. I'm choosing fun, too.
ReplyDeleteBeautiful view!
I remember really enjoying the first one.
DeleteFamily and fun--easy ways to enjoy life.
ReplyDeleteI've been hanging out with my grandkids for 3 days in a row, my heart is full.
DeleteGlad you enjoyed your time out with them!
ReplyDeleteI have my grandsons coming over tonight for tacos and a movie. There are so many movies on Disney+ that they have never seen yet and it's fun to see those movies again. We give them a few choices and let them decide...
I hope you had a good time!
DeleteAfter your very enjoyable day you must have had great dreams!
ReplyDeleteI did!
DeleteEmbrace the moment, make memories. It is about experiences. And yes, the art. Oh, the art!
ReplyDeleteI like the way you think.
DeleteI took one grandson to see a live theater presentation of Daniel Tiger's neighborhood. He lasted thru the first act, about 40 minutes. Next I'm taking the other grandson to see a theater presentation of The Rainbow Fish. He'll last even less. They are both 2. I am looking forward to when they can sit thru an entire movie.
ReplyDeleteI love animation, which, as you say, has become amazingly beautiful. And after-show ice cream ain't bad either!
Fun. After show ice cream has become a necessity.
