The Rob — Thu, 07 Mar 2013 17:12:04 +0000

While racking Warner Bros. up a lofty $200,000,000+ price tag, the film made just north of $28,000,000 in its opening weekend.

The Rob's Favorite Kids Movie – A Goofy Movie

The Rob — Mon, 12 Nov 2012 21:19:46 +0000

Ever since I admitted on the air to Ryan O’Bryan a few days ago that I hadn’t really seen any kids’ movies since the turn of the millennium, I have been getting a whole lot of grief from friends, family, and listeners wondering what is wrong with me. While that answer may be somewhat lengthy, the answer to why I haven’t seen any kids’ movies is pretty simple… I don’t have any kids. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with grown-ups watching kids’ movies, but typically the ones giving me grief do have kids, so of course you’ve seen Finding Nemo. 29-year-old single dudes like me don’t rush out to buy or rent Up when it hits stores… We are first in line for Bat Man though.
