So I went and saw "How to Train your Dragon" today in 3D, and I have to admit that is was an incredibly good movie. In my opinion it is probably one of the best, if not "the best", animated movie Dreamworks has ever made. While it might not be as ambitious as most Pixar movies, it has a smart and touching story filled with some of the deepest characters you'll ever see in an animated film. The visuals are also incredible, especially when brought to life on the big screen in 3D. Both my girlfriend and myself left the theatre with huge smiles on our faces. I really think everyone should go see this movie.

Well that's enough from me for now. Now time for your regularly scheduled weekend recaps.
