And there are more. Without these movies its just not the same.
This movie is always the first Christmas movie we watch each year. It isn’t the holidays without this flick. Chevy Chase is epic in this classic family movie. Johnny Galecki from “The Big Bang Theory” plays Rusty in this seasonal favorite.
This is a great flick that shows us what goes on inside us all and in particular Riley a young girl who has her life turned upside down due to a family move. Amy Poehler, Bill Hader, Mindy Kaling, Lewis Black and Phyllis Smith provide voices for this Pixar presentation.
Today is the day that the DeLorean time machine built by Dr. Emmett L. Brown was programmed to travel into the future in the movie “Back To The Future”.
We actually visit this date in the movie “Back To the Future Part II”. The 1980’s vision of the future is very different than the reality we face here in 2015. There are a few things that are close to what the movie predicted. Today is a celebration of this great movie trilogy and how it helped us imagine the future in a different way.
Today was about old and new attractions at Universal Studios and Island of Adventure. We were hot most of the day and we walked and walked. We ate well too. It’s been a great time here in Orlando. We come home on Thursday.
