So I am a horrible geek. Just starting out with that. I did not get a chance to see Solo: A Star Wars Story in theaters. I could make up all the excuses, about babysitters and children, but the bottom line is we just didn’t get to see it. My husband and I have really been looking forward to it’s home release date and last night it showed up on our doorstep, along with the Ultimate Solo Movie and Game Night kit! My girls got in on the fun, and were so excited to see lots of Chewie items. They love Chewie, but really, how could they not. 

I know the story of Freaky Friday well. I remember seeing several versions of the play when I was a young girl, so when I found out the latest Disney Original Movie was going to be a new take on it, I couldn’t wait to share it with my daughters. From the first moment they saw the previews, they were hooked! And we counted down the days until it aired on The Disney Channel in August. On September 25th, you can bring this super fun movie home to watch time and time again!

When I opened up YouTube this morning and saw an alert for the Mary Poppins Returns trailer, my first thought was – is it real? I had to check and see that it was from Disney’s official channel because I just wasn’t expecting it. When I realized that the full trailer was indeed here, I was so excited. This trailer hit me right in the feels. Way more than I expected. And I sobbed like a little baby.

Halloween is one of my favorite times of the year, especially because there are so many great movies that celebrate this holiday. The Nightmare Before Christmas is probably the number one on my list. It is a film that I have enjoyed for years – 25 years to be exact. To celebrate it’s anniversary, there is a special new blu-ray release! It includes not only the film, but also a special sing-a-long version – which my girls are obsessed with now! Get your spook on instantly via Digital, Movies Anywhere and on Blu-ray September 2.

One of my all time favorite Halloween movies is Hocus Pocus. I remember watching this when I was a little girl and I have now shared it with my young daughters. They love it just as much as I did – especially Binx. Recently I came across a “Binx Is My Spirit Animal” shirt at the Disney Store and I so need it. This is a must see Halloween movie that truly stands up against the test of time. I feel so old realizing that it first came out 25 years ago. WOW! The anniversary edition is now available on blu-ray with some amazing bonus features.
