Christmas came early this year in West Hollywood, California, on Sunset Strip for a “living billboard” became Santa Claus’s Southern California base of operations away from the North Pole for the “12 Days of Arthur Christmas.” Guests mainly kids were treated to a special snow-filled kickoff party at the base of the billboard, with activities for kids, including sledding, snow play, snowman building, writing letters to Santa, and making ornaments.
CineMovie was on hand for the festivities in West Hollywood with the Mayor of WeHo as Angelenos brought new, unwrapped toy or book to the billboard to donate to the program; the donated gifts were hoisted up to the billboard, wrapped by the elves, and earmarked for a special child. The “12 Days of Arthur Christmas” were also held in 25 cities: New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Boston, Dallas, Washington DC, Atlanta, Houston, Detroit, Tampa, Seattle, Phoenix, Minneapolis, Cleveland, Miami, Denver, Sacramento, Orlando, St. Louis, Pittsburgh, Portland, Baltimore, San Diego, and Toronto.
In New York, the Grand Central Shuttle Station became Christmas Party Central. With the support of partners New York MTA and Toys for Tots, the studio gave three subway shuttle train cars the full Christmas razzle-dazzle, wrapping them inside and out for Arthur Christmas. Next to the train cars, Santa parked his sleigh, where families can pose for pictures. The 12 days of events nationwide concludes with the release of Arthur Christmas, the new 3D CG-animated family comedy in theaters November 23, 2011.
The 3D, CG-animated family comedy Arthur Christmas, at last reveals the incredible, never-before-seen answer to every child's question: “So how does Santa deliver all those presents in one night?” The answer: Santa's exhilarating, ultra-high-tech operation hidden beneath the North Pole. But at the heart of the film is a story with the ingredients of a Christmas classic – a family in a state of comic dysfunction and an unlikely hero: Santa’s youngest son, Arthur. When this amazing operation misses one child out of hundreds of millions, Arthur, the least capable Claus, embarks on a hilarious, exciting rogue mission against the clock with his politically incorrect grandfather Grandsanta and a giftwrapping-obsessed elf named Bryony, to deliver the last present before Christmas morning dawns.

Does it seem like your life is out of control no matter what you do? That's what it's like for George Clooney's character in Alexander Payne's THE DESCENDANTS, but luckily for us, we can laugh at his misery.

Captain America comes to the rescue at the Boys and Girls club in East Los Angeles for an event promoting an Anti-Bullying campaign.
Before he was Captain America, Steve Rogers knew what it was like being bullied for being small. Captain America ventured out to East Los Angeles to meet children and educate them on bullying. Captain America was joined by the real avengers which included real heroes from the police and fire department, and a teacher among others, to teach children from 8-12 years-old different techniques to recognize, prevent and defend themselves from being bullied. The team of “Avengers” held a fun-filled lecture that taught kids how to protect themselves from verbal and physical abuse, as well as show them what to do if they face trouble, just as Captain America does!
Captain America: The First Avenger Movie Review
It wasn't all serious as the kids were encouraged to participate in a 5-step obstacle course followed by nutritional snacks and refreshements.
Captain America: The First Avenger is in theaters July 22, 2011.
