JKS my friends little boy loves HSM .

Oh, OK, HSM it will be then

better than all that kicking fighting cr*p anyway!

No JKS many a nite I'm rolling on the floor pretending to be in some battle scene, then I have to do that with ds

No there are often reinactments(sp) of some movies in our house, transformers, spiderman, starwars

Although he did go through a stage were he was the Bandit (smokey and the bandit) he used to tell me to close my eyes and kis me on the lips and then say I had to move my head sideways
It was actually quite sweet he had the cowbot hat and I had to draw on a moustache a la Burt Reynolds

Ds also knew everyword and dance move to Bet on it (hsm)
But he does want to be an actor, and believe me I think he has the talent (hes 5 btw)
