I found this interesting film in a Stanley Kramer DVD collection I purchased a few years ago. The idea and story are similar to The Wizard of Oz. This time a young boy gets sucked into an interesting world he must make his way out of.
As much as I don't like remakes, Tim Burton and Johnny Depp could have a field day redoing this film for a new generation.
Still an entertaining film.

First of a series of Jigsaw
Of all of the the movies in this collection this was the best. Usually the first is because it is most original. The story of a serial killer who kidnaps his victims based in what crimes they have committed in their lives and makes them choose to live or die via playing a very ideally games which usually involves them dismembering themselves in some fashion. SOme learn some don't. The series now contains 6 sequells they should have stopped at 1

Love's Second Chance Series Box Set One

Book Rating
This collection has 4 wonderful full-length novels. Each one has a character that has appeared before and all these can be read as a standalone also. The author is truly gifted and she describes love in a beautiful clean way. Her stories are all intriguing and gripping. The characters are well developed and have appeared previously which is lovely to see and follow.
I highly recommend these to be read.
I received the box set from the novelist herself but this is my honest opinion.

Fantastic collection
I listened to this thinking I would skip anything except Boys Don't Cry, Friday I'm in Love and Lovecats. I was heavily influenced by Newman and Baddiel's cruel take-down of the Cure in the 90s, so expected it all to be gloomy and dirgey. However having listened to this on serious rotation for the last few weeks I now skip those songs in preference for the rest! Never Enough, Just Like Heaven, Pictures of You and Just Say Yes are absolute bangers.

Great App to entertain kids
This is one of my go-to apps to entertain my toddler while out and about. It has all your favorite Daniel Tiger songs and gives you suggestions on parenting and activities to do with your kids. The only downside is that it had to be connected to the internet to play the videos, so if your in a place without reliable internet be prepared for a sad toddler.

A rich old maid leaves her heirs a collection of cross word puzzles in a treasure race for their inheritance, and Cora must judge the results. However, when the bodies start appearing, things turn deadly for everyone. An inventive plot with great twists kept me racing through the pages, although I was very glad when Cora sobered up for the second half of the book.

Book Rating
Atwood is the queen of thought-provoking, witty writing.

Stone Mattress is a collection of 9 stories based on old people. There is a mixed bag of characters from an author of a fantasy series to a disembodied hand that is madly in love.

All the stories in the book feature the characters looking back on their lives.

I really enjoyed the stories which had themes of romance, horror and brilliantly executed wit.

Good morning/afternoon fellow Smashbomb peeps! I just created a new Orb called Get to know your fellow Smashbombers where you can post cool or fun videos about you and your life.

Let's find out more about one another with this fun new Orb?!?

I posted the first video of my movie collection.

Looking forward to seeing all your videos as well. If you have issue uploading large files, you can upload to Youtube and then post the link. That is what I did.
