Rustic, but just glowing.<BR/><BR/>I am going to get A Bug's Life on your recommendation that it's good for younger kids. <BR/><BR/>Also: we really are loving "Day of the Triffids" but the dvd went defective in the middle of episode 4, so we are going to have to wait for the replacement disc to see the whole thing. Did you know they are going to make a new one?

Ratatouille...Oh, The Incredibles is a close second. Ratatouille's pretty great too. My son was watching it the other day and my husband got completely sucked in. Later, he told me he almost teared up at the end! It's completely true about Pixar movies: they are earnest, but never cloying. That's what makes them really stand out.knoxhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13231876226573540476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7268985416439660021.post-14099581860610841202009-02-08T19:37:00.000-08:002009-02-08T19:37:00.000-08:00Toy Story is still my all-time Pixar favorite.
