TraceyS/FL Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 Race to Witch Mountain this weekend? Escape to Witch Mountain was one of my all time favorite movies growing up. My kids love it too! When we saw the previews to Race to Witch Mountain i was worried - but told DD i'd figure out how to take her to see it. She ending up paying for her own ticket - an so i could swing going. Well, i'll be buying it - it was great!!!! :tongue_smilie: Not for my 4yo though, and too intense for my 9.5yo - she will need to watch it with a pause button. But, it was good!!!!!

Angel Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 This is good to hear! Dd's want to go see it. Younger one has been watching Escape to Witch Mountain and Return to Witch Mountain for the last month or two. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
momofkhm Posted March 14, 2009 Share Posted March 14, 2009 Very good movie. I don't know if we'll buy it though. I'll see if the kids ask for it when it comes out. Did you know that the kids from the original were in this movie? Tia was the waitress Tina. Tony was Sheriff Anthony. Kind of cool with their names too.

KristenS Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 So how different was it? The original movies were pretty different from the books, which I really like. The new movie looks even farther away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TraceyS/FL Posted March 15, 2009 Author Share Posted March 15, 2009 My DD walked out of the theater talking about watching it everyday when it comes out! And gee, i didn't know that about Tony & Tia - but i had hoped they were in there. HMPH. I missed it.... I didn't read the books (gee, i didn't know they were books, off to the library website) so i can't help there. I just wanted to have super powers when i was a kid.

unsinkable Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 I am planning on going. It was a childhood favorite of mine, too. Along with the books. Thanks for the reminder! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elisabeth in IL Posted March 15, 2009 Share Posted March 15, 2009 We went to see in on Friday Afternoon. I thought they did well with the special effects but that they lost the sweetness of Escape to Witch Mountain. My 9 year old loved it and my 4 year old said that it was too scary.
