To See or Not to See?

So here is the verdict.  We have decided that tomorrow evening, Teeter Bees, Bowbas, M, Mrs. S, and I will be going to see the Princess and The Frog.  We watch loves of Disney Movies and I ca not imagine that this particular Disney movie will have any negative effect on my girls.  I will be happy to post an update on how the movie was, but we love Disney Princesses so I am sure it will be a hit.  This will be Bowbas' first movie at a movie theater.

On the other hand we have decided that Alvin and the Chipmunks needs to be put on hold for our family. It looks so adorable, so I am a little bummed to report this.  However, I do not enjoy watching my 3 year old walking around shaking her tiny booty and saying "shake watch your mama gave ya!"  Although it sounds funny, to people at the grocery store that do not know us...it is not.  They are wondering what I am teaching my daughter.  So Alvin and the Chimpunks...I am sorry to say my babies will not be able to watch you at this young age.  Is it totally bad if I rent it when it comes out on DVD, hide in my room, and do not let the girls see it?  Hehehe.

To See or Not to See?

So the other day Tuck and I started discussing whether or not we should take the kids to see The Princess and the Frog.  The radio film critic gave it 2 out of 5 stars for family friendliness because of the "dark voo-doo magic" present in the film. 

Princess and the Frog

A witch doctor uses voo-doo magic to turn the prince into a frog. The critic said there were some positive messages in the movie, but the dark voo-doo magic brought up more then once in the movie caused him to give it 2 out of 5 stars for family friendliness. Tell us...will you be taking your kids to see this movie?



The other movie that just came up today is the Alvin & The Chipmunk Squeakwal.  I couldn't wait to take the girls to see this movie until today, and now Tuck and I are not sure if it is appropriate for younger kids.  Teeter and Bowbas were watching TV with me.  A preview for this movie came on.  It was the preview when Alvin is playing football, lands in the end zone, pops up with the ball and says "Boo-ya!  Shake what your mama gave ya!" and starts shaking his booty. 
 

Alvin & The Chipmunks

I still did not think anything of this until Teeter was yelling "Shake what your mama gave ya!"  and Bowbas was yelling "Boo-ya!"  It was really hard to not laugh since the girls' voices sound like little chipmunks.  But Tuck walked into the room and was caught off by the sound of our 3 year old saying "shake what your mama gave ya!"  He did not think it was appropriate at all.  Keep in mind we have not seen the first one, so I am not aware of the family friendliness of the original movie.  Will you be taking your kids to see this movie?
