A few days ago, I was sent a large box full of Boneless Skaters and accessory sets. Boneless are motorized toy skateboard with poseable skaters that can go forward or backward. They are charged up using a base that runs on three AA batteries, and the skaters themselves can be posed in various ways to affect the way they move and make jumps. The box I received included three skaters (Mia, Ryan, & Luca) with boards and chargers, the Big Air Mega Ramp, and Super Street Sk8Prk. The idea behind these are pretty neat and I’m surprised there hasn’t been something similar. The execution, however, is a little lacking. The Skaters & Boards The skater charges withing a few seconds, but you must hold them down onto the charger. Otherwise they’ll go flying off as the wheels start spinning as soon as there is a slight charge. Sliding the board forward allows the skater to move forward only.

Movie Review – The Lion King
Disney’s The Lion King is the acclaimed animated film that follows young lion cub Simba as he comes of age and takes his rightful place in the King of the Pride Lands. Tricked by his Uncle Scar into believing he is responsible for the death of his father Mufasa, Simba runs away. He is found by Timon and Pumbaa, a meerkat and warthog, who raise him to adulthood. Will Simba return to Pride Rock and defeat his Uncle? I absolutely loved The Lion King as a kid. I was in middle school when it came out and I remember everyone singing Hakuna Matata for weeks and hearing Can You Feel the Love Tonight every time I turned the radio on. One of my favorite parts of the movie was Scar singing Be Prepared. Jeremy Irons did a phenomenal job with the voice acting and do this day it is still one of my favorite performances. Disney sent me a digital copy of the movie, which has been re-released as part of the Signature Collection. I haven’t watched it in a long time, and my daughter had never seen ...
