Horton has already made over $125,000 in theaters and the DVD sales are yet to come.

My kids are hooked on all those Disney programs that are always on tv from Mickey Mouse to Life with Derek or Suite Life of Zach and Cody. They’d love it if they could watch it all day, every day but they can’t. But now Disney has a movie club. I had no clue they were doing this until someone asked me if I was a member. So far, I’m not a member, but only because I need to sort out my bills first. I think this is a great program, kind of like NetFlix or Blockbuster but for kids.

Right now you can get in on the Disney deal and get 4 movies for $1.99 each plus free shipping and handling. Can’t beat that right? Movies such as Ratatouille, Meet the Robinsons, Cars, Fox and Hound or even Mary Poppins 40th Anniversary Edition.

Will you be joining? Let me know how you like it if you do. This sounds like a great plan. Think back to when you were a kid, what types of movies did you like? Was there a favorite Disney show/movie you liked? If so maybe they have it listed. I know I’ve looked for a ton of movies at movie rentals and either they were scratched or didn’t have them. Disney Movie club has a ton to go through though. Soar through the air with Aladin and then take a hop on a floating log with Davy Crocket, but don’t forget to use your imagination just like in Winnie the Pooh.

Horton Hears a Who! comes out in theater today! This is definitely one I want to see, but it won’t be happening this week, but I’d love to hear your take on it.

Horton Hears a Who! is from the old story from Dr.Seuss, Horton the elephant finds a a small flower with a speck of dust on it. Luckily for the people of Whoville he doesn’t just blow it off, instead of just being a speck of dust it is an entire community of little people living on it. Horton develops a friendship with the Who people and realizes he must keep the flower safe in order to save them.

Jim Carrey plays the voice of Horton.

“There is a man that has 96 daughters and 1 son and all share a bathroom. EEEKkkk!”
