Reasons to Give Thanks Hi <<First Name>>, Today is Thanksgiving Day, a holiday established to commemorate the bounty of an autumn harvest. In 1621, American colonists held a celebration of their first year in the New World. They invited the local Indian chief and 90 of his tribe to a feast of thanks. One of the foods they enjoyed was popcorn. I don’t think they watched any movies, but I’m sure they enjoyed some form of entertainment. I did a random survey of our staff and asked what they are thankful for. We all have many things for which to give thanks, but these are at the top of the list right now: - My nephew’s survival of a delicate surgery
- God’s sovereign control over the chaos of my life
- Having my marriage back
- Health
- My family, even my brothers-in-law
- God’s provision
- Going to Ohio to be with family for Christmas, and the end of biology
- God’s personal nature and very real presence in my life
- A job I love so much I stay up all night working (and a wife who understands)
- A new home and friends who encourage and support me through a significant life change
What are the people or things that cause you to stop and give thanks? I hope you have many reasons to be grateful.

The studio most identified as the home of high-testosterone action flicks aimed at young male audiences -- think "Spider-Man," "Men in Black" and most recently, James Bond -- has aggressive plans to tap into one of the few rising segments of the filmgoing public. As part of a new strategy quietly underway at the Culver City-based studio, Sony is committing substantial financial and creative resources to build what it hopes will be a lucrative business around family-friendly movies.

Releases on: Tuesday, December 2, 2008 Dove Review: This follow-up to The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe is a darker, more intense version of "The Chronicles of Narnia." There is a bit more evil to contend with in this one. As a dwarf in the film says: "You might find Narnia a more savage place then you remember." The wicked King Miraz (Sergio Castellitto) fights against his nephew, Prince Caspian (Ben Barnes), the rightful heir to the throne of Narnia. Yet there is still plenty of charm left over from the first installment, with the addition of some fascinating new characters and the return of the four rulers from the first movie, namely Peter, Edmund, Susan and Lucy. These four have all grown as characters since the first story, and it shows in the film's plot line. There are a few surprises in store for both our heroes and for the audience. This is a wonderful story filled with action and fantastic special effects. Return once more to Narnia where fantasies live and anything is possible. Don't miss this one! It's as exciting as the first time around! We gladly award this film five Doves, our highest rating. [Edited for length] |

" [ Read more... ] Buyer Review Rating:  The Genius Club - DVD by Wade Elliott "The archetypal 'thriller' film, The Genius Club is also one of the richest thinking-man works to come to the screen. Each of its characters is extraordinarily realized; each has his or her own arc, his or her own vital part to play in the film's slow progression towards its dramatic finale. Typically, most great filmmakers put the film together using an exceeding degree of artistry; each and every shot, each action sequence, is exquisitely composed; and this is true with this film. Nothing seems contrived or out-of-place within the overall 'Genius Table'. Everything is beautifully conceived and in focus, both literally and figuratively.
