Julieta and I went to this movie and we both had an awesome time. It's a 3D movie and well worth the extra $2.00 or so you pay for the glasses. I hope there will be more 3D movies like this made in the future. The Dark Knight would have rocked the house in 3D.

Friends and family, I have created this blog as a place to post stuff that happens in everyday life. Such items may include reviews of places I take my family like movies and restaurants. And even other events that happen in the Collins family's lives. I will only send posts to this blog to my closest friends and family. And like my other blogs, if you'd rather not receive updates, please let me know!
