Adventure Time: Up a Tree, TV Review

Sometimes, the perfect throw leads you on an adventure climbing up a giant tree, getting turned tiny, and imprisoned by tree dwelling animals. That’s basically what happened when Finn, Jake and Lady Rainicorn are on a picnic and Finn busts out their “Throwing catching disk” or a Frisbee as we know it. Finn gets Jake to back up all the way near the tree, and unleashes his “perfect throw” that…ends up sailing...

by Xopher Reed under FEATURED on Aug 4th

Being a fan of the yellowish teddy bear, I knew that I would enjoy this movie immensely, the trick was selling my oldest daughter on the premise of sitting in the theater and watching a movie featuring one of my all time favorite Disney cast of characters.
