Academy Award-winning Best Animated Feature “Finding Nemo” returns to DVD fro the first time in thrilling Disney Digital 3D.  In this stunning underwater adventure, with memorable characters, humor and heartfelt emotion, an overly protective clownfish named Marlin (voiced by Albert Brooks) and his son Nemo (voiced by Alexander Gould), become separated in the Great Barrier Reef.  Buoyed by the companionship of Dory (voiced by Ellen DeGeneres), a friendly-but-forgetful Pacific regal blue tang, Marlin embarks on a dangerous trek and finds himself the unlikely hero of an epic effort to rescue his son.

Have you had a chance to see WRECK-IT RALPH in the theaters yet? My family and I saw it, and my daughter just loved it. She’s a HUGE video game lover (that’s what she’s planning on going to college for, video game design), and so she was completely enthralled with it. She actually said that Wreck-It Ralph usurped her favorite Disney animated movie, which up to now has been Mulan.

In case you haven’t figured it out by now, my family is a bunch of geeks, LOL! Most of our family time is spent with those ‘stylish’ 3D glasses perched on our noses, with some sort of technology or playing video games.

Oh yeah video games and our family go waaaaay back, I mean to the era of Pong (my husband is almost 50!) and Commodore 64s, you know back in 1982 when 8-bit was all the rage. Oh wait, I bet some of you weren’t even born yet (now I’m feeling old…)

We’re all about learning while incorporating fun here at the Litke Academy for Girls (that’s the name our friend gave our homeschool, LOL!).

It doesn’t get more fun then doing some science experiments with Mr. Rzykruski, from the new Disney movie FRANKENWEENIE that will debut in theaters October 5th.
