I promised my kids I'd take them to a movie. Any ideas of what's good?
The new "Frozen 2" movie is out. I heard kids are really liking that. Interested?
Yeah. I believe I remember hearing the kids mention they want to see that movie. Anything else for kids?
The new "Mr. Rogers" film is out, with Tom Hanks.
Hmmm...I would probably enjoy that more than Frozen 2. What do you think the kids would like more?
You have 2 boys and a girl...you're probably safer with the Mr. Rogers movie. Frozen 2 is about princesses.
True. But I know my boys really did like the original Frozen movie. They walked around the house singing. They especially liked that snowman in the movie.
Oh yes, Olaf. Most kids liked Olaf. So what would you prefer.
Well, I can't imagine Mr. Rogers having a lot of action in it, since I remember watching the original Mr. Rogers, and there was not much action in those shows, especially when compared to today's movies. The kids kind of like action.
Yes, Frozen 2 would definitely have more action. So should I buy tickets for Frozen 2?
Hold on! Trying to weigh the pros and cons. Mr. Rogers would definitely be more educational for the kids. And it's a Tom Hanks movie, so you know it's going to be an outstanding movie. Maybe even make the kids cry in a good way.
Yes, Tom Hanks has a way of doing that. And all of his movies are great, so I'm sure you can't go wrong with that one.
What one do you think you would see?
I would personally choose Mr. Rogers, because I love Mr. Rogers. Also, I have boys, so they're not to crazy about princesses.
Yeah, you'd probably do better with Mr. Rogers. What kind of reviews are both movies getting?
The "Rotten Tomatoes" site gives both movies good reviews, but Mr. Rogers gets a 97% on reviews while Frozen 2 gets 78%, so Mr. Rogers scores quite a bit higher.
I figured that one would score high. You can't go wrong with Tom Hanks!
Yeah, he's a movie icon. So what do you think?
Well, both movies would probably make the kids happy. Mr. Rogers may make them cry, but heck, these days, Frozen 2 may make them cry. They'd probably get more excited from Frozen 2 because of the action, but then they'd be all wound up after the movie. I'm sure Mr. Rogers is really educational, and it's a Tom Hanks movie, so they're going to love it.
I think your kids would really like Mr. Rogers. You can always take them to Frozen 2 in a few weeks.
Yeah, let's go with Mr. Rogers. I may have to sell them on it, to get them into the theater, but I really think they'd enjoy that more than the Frozen 2 movie. Sequels are never as good as the originals, though they're probably too young to realize that. But let's go with Mr. Rogers. Get me tickets for that for tomorrow night around 7:30pm. 4 tickets please.
Okay, I'll book 4 tickets for Mr. Rogers, print them off and get them too you a little later today!
