You're never too old for a fairytale

Here's the scene: it's November 23, 2010 approximately 1:00 in the afternoon. My sisters tell me that Tangled is now out in movie theaters and that I am taking them to see it. Fast forward to two hours later and we're in the movie theater along with dozens of little girls and their moms. I wonder if I am really going to like this movie, I mean it is an animated fairytale.

There was something so cute about Rapunzel's little chameleon lizard that is always there for her. Maximus the horse was quite hilarious and I have to say I thought his facial expressions were quite unique. Ah...and what girl doesn't love a guy who rescues a damsel in distress? I'll admit it-I loved it. I loved Tangled.

I thought I might be subjected to 100 minutes of a fairytale that only little girls would like but I was wrong. I didn't end up aimlessly counting popcorn kernels or wondering just how much longer I was going to have to sit through there in the theater. Certainly I know that glowing hair and magic flowers don't exist but that's all right because your never too old for a fairy tale.

Tell your little sister that you have a surprise for her. Take her to see Tangled and don't think you are too old for this. You might just discover that you still believe that dreams come true.

P.S. Don't forget the popcorn! =)
