“Intro to Shere
Khan” clip
Directed by Jon
Favreau (“Iron Man”), based on Rudyard Kipling’s timeless stories and inspired
by Disney’s classic animated film, “The Jungle Book” is an all-new live-action
epic adventure about Mowgli (newcomer Neel Sethi), a man-cub who’s been raised
by a family of wolves. But Mowgli finds he is no longer welcome in the jungle
when fearsome tiger Shere Khan (voice of Idris Elba), who bears the scars of
Man, promises to eliminate what he sees as a threat. Urged to abandon the only
home he’s ever known, Mowgli embarks on a captivating journey of self-discovery,
guided by panther-turned-stern mentor Bagheera (voice of Ben Kingsley), and the
free-spirited bear Baloo (voice of Bill Murray).
Along the way, Mowgli
encounters jungle creatures who don’t exactly have his best interests at heart,
including Kaa (voice of Scarlett Johansson), a python whose seductive voice and
gaze hypnotizes the man-cub, and the smooth-talking King Louie (voice of
Christopher Walken), who tries to coerce Mowgli into giving up the secret to
the elusive and deadly red flower: fire. The all-star cast also includes
Lupita Nyong'o as the voice of the fiercely protective mother wolf Raksha, and
Giancarlo Esposito as the voice of wolf pack’s alpha male Akela. “The Jungle
Book” seamlessly blends live-action with photorealistic CGI animals and environments,
using up-to-the-minute technology and storytelling techniques to immerse
audiences in an enchanting and lush world. The wild adventure swings into
theaters in 3D on April 15, 2016.

Colds are going around... Are you ready if sick just got real? #SickJustGotReal
Labels:
Giveaway
I learned something quickly when I became a mother years ago, kids get sick and usually not at convenient times. As a baby my daughter was relatively cold free, she had sniffles and things like that but nothing really awful. I wasn’t prepared for what came next when she actually got to school and was around other germ incubators, kids are full of germs and no matter how many times you say don’t touch that….or that….and stay away from that!
They love to spread the wealth around! You learn quickly what works well and what the kids will actually take without putting up a fight because medicine is yucky! Kids….they don’t realize that the “yucky” medicine is better now than when their parents were their age, and that you’d really rather have a cold than take a spoonful of medicine? I always try to be one step ahead of an illness, sometimes your caught unprepared and so we jet off to the nearest Target to grab something to help get the kid back on her feet because sometimes life can’t be interrupted by a cold.
