An evening out!

Last night I took the grandkids to see this movie and other than having a half-gallon of iced Coke dumped in my lap during a scuffle between the boys, it went well.
Incredible what they can do today with computers, the panoramic scenes of animals thundering across the plains were incredible.
During the credits, the names of the people doing the voices were listed but not their character. The kids seemed to know who they were.
I was surprised to see that Joel and Ethan Cohen had done the script, no easy task without the benefit of obscenity.
Anyway is was an enjoyable evening and while driving home we all found ourselves singing, "I want to Move It!......Move It!......
