Why Pixar Is Every Parent's Saving Grace

Soon I'll be sitting in a theatre with a bunch of five year olds watching "Alvin and the Chipmunks". It's times like these my thoughts turn to Pixar.

Pixar is every parent's saving grace when it's time to take the kids to the movies. Every Pixar film is as enjoyable for adults as it is for kids. They're perfect, but there's only one a year. Sometimes you can find salvation in a Dreamworks production, a "Shrek" or a "Happy Feet", but usually you're stuck with "Alvin and the Chipmunks".

At least I'm going in with low expectations. Maybe I'll be pleasantly surprised? Ya, right...
