Dh & I took the kids - DS8 & DD4 - to see Piglets Big Movie today. It was cute and we all liked it. I thought it dragged a bit and wasn't one of the best, but we did enjoy it. Great to see little Piglet get the recognition he deserves. 
The theatre was filled with young children - in the under 6 range - and that really made the movie. They laughed and cheered along. At one point the characters are calling Piglet and many of the kids started calling along! They also liked clapping when the good things happened. DD sat and watched the entire movie but DS was a little antsy. Altho he still likes Pooh and friends, he was a bit too old for it.
On a side note....when we bought the popcorn and drinks, the women at the concession stand gave us a $1 off coupon that was just laying around - thought that was nice. And while I was walking away with a drink and the popcorn, DS was behind me with the other drink. Well, it slipped out of his hands and spilled all over the floor. He was so upset! The same woman gave us a refill for free! There was another woman in line who helped me pick up the ice - even after I told her it was ok and I would do it. She then helped me keep people from slipping on it until someone came over with a mop. Those two nice ladies made my day!
We love the trailers for Finding Nemo, but the kids are TERRIFIED of the ones for Pirates of the Carribean! (DD even hides her head)
