Movie Night

We've started to turn Friday night into movie night at our house. (We're stealing the idea from our Seattle friends, the Ashbys.) Tonight we ate leftovers, plus fresh yakisoba for the kids, and snacked on fancy cookies, and then we rented a movie with our favorite new toy, Apple TV.

We can get movies from the Tokyo American Club (it has a better selection) but Apple's list is improving. We can choose a movie, rent it for $3-4, download and start watching a minute later. With no late fees. It is so cool!

Tonight we watched Underdog - and the kids LOVED it. I vaguely remember that it got bad reviews, maybe because it appeals to 3-yr-old boys with superhero fixations and 5-yr-old girls who giggle about mild potty humor?
