The Darkest Hour in 3D

The Darkest Hour in 3D

In Moscow, five young people lead the charge against an alien race who have attached Earth to claim our planet and drain its power resources and its energy.

Simple right?  Let's fight back!  But what if we can't see what we are fighting and another thing they have shields that make them so formidable.  The movie starts slow, with the cast venturing into a business that was supposed to make them rich and famous, but things turned out not the way they wanted.  Then without warning, tragedy struck and the aliens devoured all of Earth's power resources, and with the heat and energy that humans emit, making them the next target by the aliens.

The movie shown in 3D is action packed, though a little ambitious, is capable of bringing excitement and fear, and is definitely worth your buck.  Special effects are amazing and the storyline is as good as it gets.  Catch it in your favorite movie houses.  Now showing in amazing 3D, brought to us by 20th Century Fox.

Apple brings out iBooks 2 and iBooks Author


Apple has announced iBooks 2, which is designed with education in mind, and Apple is looking to replace education text books with interactive digital books for the iPad.

Apple is hoping that iBooks 2 will change the way that students access education material, with interactive books which feature videos, animations and interactive graphics, instead of using text books.

Something Apple is coming


An Apple event at the Big Apple

Apple will be hosting an event on Jan. 19 at The Big Apple, New York.  Details are still mushy, be on the look out for more, and watch it unfold over the net.  As the drawing suggests, an Ipad for every student maybe?  We will see.

We Bought a Zoo - a movie review


We Bought a Zoo is a comedy-drama film based on a memoir by Benjamin Mee. The film is directed by Cameron Crowe, and it stars actor Matt Damon as the lead character Benjamin Mee. We Bought a Zoo tells the story of Benjamin Mee and his family who just moved into a dilapidated zoo. They took on the challenge of preparing the zoo for its reopening to the public.

I love how this movie was made.  It gives inspiration to people and makes them better.  A feel good movie about the up and downs of life.  How we can cope up with everyday stress and worries, about being a single parent, and how we in our small ways can indeed make change happen.

Based on a true story, We bought a zoo, not only brings joy and hope, but a renewed faith in what is human in all of us.    The movie also stars Scarlett Johansson and Thomas Haden Church with Elle Fanning.  Catch We bought a zoo, now showing at your favorite theaters.
