I don't really remember my first movie on the wide screen...
maybe it was "Superman" which stars the late Christopher Reeve. My parents told me though that my nickname
was from the leading actor's name in the movie they were watching a few days
before I was born. Will that count?
(LOL)
But this is something I do know, my son’s first
movie... “Happy Feet Two”. It took a
while, since my wife and I were hesitant to bring him to a movie theater. We
were afraid that he might ask us to go out while the movie is going on or worst,
even before the movie starts, considering its very dark inside a movie house. But yesterday, we decided to treat him and his sister and took the risk... and guess what? He enjoyed the movie... he was quietly watching the movie from the start until it ended... maybe because it has
a colorful animation, full of action and sound effects, lovable and fluffy
penguin and other fun-to-watch animal characters and exciting music. He even asked us to watch another round which we would had gladly agreed to if not
only it was that late.
I somehow related with the theme of the movie... since it focused on the struggle of a little penguin and a krill in finding their place in this world and of what they were capable of doing and eventually knew what they do best. For I know, someday, my children would do the same... but for the meantime, we are happy to know that our little boy is confident enough to watch inside a cinema. He even is asking me right now as to when we are gonna go back to the big TV (referring to the cinema screen) since ours is very small compared to it (haha)... I thank the Lord for these small but memorable and fulfilling experiences in life. Yahweh bless.

ReplyDeleteSo cute! This chain of memories are the ones you'll cherished when he became a teenager when you'll barely see him. ( This is a fact my cutie cute cute nephew is now 13 yrs. old and he now have his own "lakad". God bless your family!
ReplyDeleteI love seeing cartoon movies when I was a kid. That desire still exists in me even when I'm already a senior citizen.

ReplyDeletemy son loves penguin and we keep on watching happy feet 1, hope we can watch this too in moviehouse.
ReplyDeleteMy friend told me that it was a good movie. I miss my nephews and nieces because this is their favorite cartoon movie. :)
ReplyDeleteI envy you for being able to log your child's first movie. Most parents weren't able to do that. I'm sure your kid will cherish knowing that info too and pass it on.

ReplyDeleteI Prefer the first one though! BUt I love Happy Feet...I am a fan of this movie
ReplyDeleteIt's good that you brought him to a movie house at a young age. My parents never brought me to a theater when I was young so my first movie house experience was when I was 3rd year in highschool. Just imagine how innocent I was that time while my friends already knew the experience.
ReplyDeleteI love to watch that movie too. BUt right now, I'd rather spend my money on food than movie theaters haha
I would love to see this movie too with the whole family! :)
ReplyDeletePenguins are so cute!
ReplyDeleteBTW, are they birds or mammals?
I haven't heard of this movie--but I'm going to check it out!! My kids are out of school for a whole week before Christmas--I will need to entertain them!
ReplyDeleteCheers, Jenn
I remember my nephew about this. He's a 5 year old smart kid and we watch together an Ice Age movie, I totally love Zed!
