A Muppet Treasure...on an Island ;-)
Take the time for a family movie night with this great adaptation of the Robert Louis Stevenson classic as told through the eyes of a Gonzo/Rizzo/Jim Hawkins team. This movie is great for those who love good, clean, lighthearted entertainment--a must-see for children and adults alike. Meet old and new friends during this story like Kermit (Captain Smollet), Fozzie Bear (the semi-idiotic sponsor of the voyage), and not forgetting the illustrious Mr. Bimbo, whose love affair with the "big blue wet thing" is unprecedented and whose value as comic relief is beyond words.

The world of Princess Bride
Goldman's classic "abridgement" of a "S. Morgenstern classic" is light, humorous, and most of all entertaining. Anyone familiar with the movie has already experienced a taste of Goldman's writing style (he wrote the screenplay also). While the book does have differences from the movie, there is wonderful overlap, and the book provides deeper insight into the story behind the story--that of how Goldman "discovered" this wonderful story. The light satire of Goldman's style is evident throughout the book, and the 25th anniversary introduction and 1st chapter of the "long-lost sequel" are also a great addition to the book which has, in my mind, the ability to transcend age groups, generation gaps, and fads. Yes, it is possible to be a PB fanatic...but even non-fanatics can appreciate the story Goldman has *cough* edited. (For those of you confused by all of the quotation marks littering my review, check out the wikipedia article here:http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Princess_Bride.)
