After getting rained out last week, we did it this week.

We watched "The Princess Bride" but most of the kids wandered off half way through it. Not enough explosions, special effects and nudity I guess.

I told them next time...we'll watch "Joe Vs. The Volcano"!

Failing that "Moon Over Parador"!


I failed to gain support for my selections.

Anyway, picture attached.

KEF iQ9's and NAD C370 integrated. No sub was needed. The KEF's performed very well!

    Well, you tried. It has been ages since I watched a movie from start to finish. I guess watching the movie at one time is now the main benefit of going to a theater.

    Does the Folgers can on top of the pot do anything or is it a NJ thing?

    Kids won't enjoy the Princess Bride the way we do. You may want something a little more current or less Red bull.
    Where’s the KABOOM?!?! There’s supposed to be an Earth shattering KABOOM!!!

    Looks cool john. Maybe next time pick a more current movie. Kids like current stuff, and princess bride has alot of adult humor. I love that movie btw.
