    I think Super Mario Bros movie is going to be big. It been long over due. As a fan of Nintendo, this is one movie I think will have the “ol’heads” wanting more.

    I’m a secret fan of Ladybug & Catnoir. My youngest day is a HUGE fan and I know we well be watching this movie on repeat!

    TMNT is going to be a questionable treat. Since there has been so many variations, I can’t imagine how they could make possibly change things up.

    As for the other animations to watch. I will have to get lots of popcorn and a notebook. Can’t wait for the fun to begin!
