It’s Not Too Late To Give A Kindle For Christmas

I was surprised to find that I can still plan an order for a Kindle Fire and get it in time for Christmas. How cool is that?

The Kindle Fire is just that, a device which is a whole lotta fun, plain and simple. I have been enjoying the Fire for over a week now and I can honestly say I’m getting my money’s worth. The screen size and touch screen capabilities are just top notch. Someone at Amazon has definitely been doing their homework! And the apps are fantastic! Lots to choose from and quite a number of them are free. Streaming works like a charm and the price is not too shabby either. All in all, a fantastic little device that’s a bargain in these economically challenging times. A+

Movie DVDs for Christmas: Lord of the Rings Trilogy Set

For lovers of J.R.R. Tolkien’s masterwork trilogy, the release of all three extended versions of Jackson’s film adaptation on Blu-Ray, complete with a thrilling DTS soundtrack, along with 9 bonus DVDs of supplemental content, should be a perfect reason to buy a Blu-Ray player if you don’t already have one. Rightfully, I know that many of you, like myself, have spent many times the cost of the set and a player on various editions of “The Lord of the Rings” books by the ‘Shakespeare’ of the fantasy genre. The Amazon price I paid was the best available anywhere on the net, and it is even cheaper now!

A MUST HAVE item for the millions of fans.

Movie DVDs for Christmas: The Help

The #1 New York Times bestseller by Kathryn Stockett comes to vivid life through the powerful performances of a phenomenal ensemble cast. Led by Emma Stone, Academy Award®-nominated Viola Davis (Best Supporting Actress, Doubt, 2008), Octavia Spencer and Bryce Dallas Howard, The Help is an inspirational, courageous and empowering story about very different, extraordinary women in the 1960s South who build an unlikely friendship around a secret writing project — one that breaks society’s rules and puts them all at risk. Filled with poignancy, humor and hope — and complete with compelling, never-before-seen bonus features — The Help is a timeless, universal and triumphant story about the ability to create change.

I loved Viola Davis, Jessica Chastain and a lot of the acting in this film, but I did feel that it was the hundredth movie I’ve seen where if it wasn’t for a noble white person then the black characters would be doomed. I felt this way after THE BLIND SIDE as well. It’s not to say that the movie itself is racist or anything like that but maybe paternalistic? Things were terrible in the South to say nothing of Mississippi around the time of the Medgar Evers assassination, much worse than maids being disallowed from using their employers’ toilets. I think the sheer level of every day prejudice is sometimes forgotten with stories like this one.
