Saturday night the Yogi’s and SuperPizzaBoy’s buddy Nicholas loaded up and we went to see The Lightening Thief. I was dreading it. Kids movie, ugh. Turned out I was wrong. It was pretty decent. So it was a kids movie that is tolerable for adults.<\/p>\n

It brought back lots of memories. All the Greek Mythology brought back memories of my World Lit class in High School. One of the characters even looked a little like her.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

Hey I was one of the few dweebs who loved World Lit. Especially Greek Mythology. I have forgotten almost all of it though. Along with everyone else.<\/p>\n

The Greek Fury that in the movie reminded me of Mrs. Randall my first grade teacher in Payson, Arizona.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

Oh yeah, I can deal with mean looks. I can’t tell you how many times Mrs. Randall slapped me out of my chair. I was lucky enough to get her in the 48th year of a distinguished 56 year teaching career. She was definitely old school. Dealing with a Fury’s dirty looks would be a breeze.<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n

This is the only G rates fury image I could find. The furies are major hot!! Except Mrs. Randall, she was not!!<\/p>\n

So enough with the trip down memory lane and back to the movie. I give it three stars out of four.<\/p>\n

The movie has a web site<\/a> but it is a yawner. Not much fun there. They need to step up. Most movie web sites these days have lots of information, games, and photographs.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
