COLD!  It feels like winter this past week but without the needed rain.  Temps during the day have been about 60 which is very unseasonable cold for here!  We should be having rain and we should be a lot warmer to.  It's like we are seeing late January, early February weather now and what will that mean for next month?  Nights have not reflected the day, still high 50's to low 60's so not freezing but still chilly.  We need some stability here people!  This is not typical Southern California weather at all!

Weekly Update:
Not a lot going on this past week but I did plan for a few things in the weeks to come.  Have a small event this coming Thursday at Downtown Disney for a test and trail venue.  Not sure what it is yet but hopefully will be fun and interesting.  And then the following week another on site event for an upcoming attraction.  Again not sure what to expect but hopefully interesting.  The attraction event I have been to before for other things and quiet frankly they were pretty boring.  But, maybe this will be different, will have to wait and see.

At the movies:
Big surprise at the box office as The Curse of La Llorona takes top honors with a hefty 26.5 million to open. Screen count double than earlier expectations as well.  Word-of-mouth is fair on this one so it should double itself to finish eventually.  Slight drop to #2 is "Shazam!" with another 17.3 mil and past the 100 mil cume mark.  New at #3 is Breakthrough with 14.6 mil and not a great opening for this post Disney/Fox merger film.  Still flying around at #4 is "Captain Marvel" with 9.1 mil as it now hits 400 mil cume domestic.  Rounding off the top 5 is "Little" with another 8.5 mil.

New movies not in the top 5:
We had one movie sneak in with about 1800 runs, Disneynature Penguins comes in at #12 with 2.4 mil and this type of film will have a bigger life in the after-market.
