Bubble Guppies: Call a Clambulance! (2011)
Oona worries when her friend Avi has an accident.
Debut episode. Lots of fun. Easy for the parents and other adults to care about. The animation is excellent and easy on the eyes. The characters are all very cute and each has a distinct personality that children can relate to. The songs are catchy. It is upbeat and imaginative. Kids get up and dance to the songs. It's filled with humor. Refreshingly new in style. The kids' voices show their distinct charm. The show's creators have a hit! Oona worries about her friend Avi who has an accident and has to go to the hospital. Children learn a little bit about seeing doctors and their own bones through song and story in a fun-fulled way.
Ice Age: The Meltdown (2006)
Great family film
Most sequels bank on the success of the original film and tend to fall flat. This is not the case of Ice Age 2 - the Meltdown. This highly anticipated sequel finds the "herd" in a new traveling adventure racing against time and impending disaster. Some of the familiar creatures reappear in this movie along with some new ones. Whereas some people already remarked on the major ones, there are also several small part newcomers. My kids were enamored be Diego's Bird Girl who appears early in the movie. This character is the distinctive voice of 9-year-old actress Reyna Shaskan, newly listed in this database. The humor in the film is for all ages. There were adult jokes where you could hear the grown-ups' belly laughs echoing throughout the theater audience. The writing was topnotch. The animation superb. Note the ability of the animators to deal with hair and fire which are 2 of the most difficult items to animate well. Scrat is his usually entertaining self, continuing the major subplot and providing continuity to the entire story. The stars reprise their roles extraordinarily well. This is a must see film for all ages.
