Just a week after treating us to a block screening of Heaven is For Real, PLDT HOME DSL invited us again for another fun family movie night. We were thinking about doing a family escape room, similar to somewhere like the Great Room Escape, but the kids wanted to do this instead. Last Friday, the entire family got to watch The Amazing Spiderman 2 with the adorable li’l Diego and his mom Lara. We weren’t able to take pictures with them again but this time my sister Lala of www.foodiemomster.com got to chat with the pretty Mommy Lara. My sister says she’s as beautiful inside as she is outside – totally no airs despite their quick rise to fame. Now I know where Diego inherited his charm.

In case you haven’t met Diego yet, he’s the precocious 7-yr-old “adviser” in the now famous Facebook page “Ask Diego”. Check him out at facebook.com/AskDiego. Before you raise your eyebrows over a child being on Facebook – more so answering questions and giving advice – rest assured that Diego is properly supervised by his family. Daddy Paolo, Mommy Lara, and Ate Trisha all make sure that offensive content are deleted before Diego sees them. They also help him answer questions that range from studies, bullying to love. Aside from capturing the hearts of thousands of fans, “Ask Diego” has also kept the Ledesma family connected. With limitless and family-sized connection from PLDT HOME DSL, they are able to keep connected while being able to do various tasks online.

Like the Ledesma family, you can have limitless sharing with the strong reliable family-sized connection offered by PLDT HOME DSL. You’d have the advantage of being online crappy surfing speed. The entire family can play games together, maintain a family website, send messages and sweet notes to each other, and even plan the next family vacation. It is possible to be online and still be connected to each other through limitless family sharing.

Back to our movie night, as expected, the little boy LOVED the movie. He always has enjoyed movie nights, ever since we went to stay with some family friends who used Hulu in Canada to stream a movie every weekend. Since then, he has really enjoyed sitting and watching a film, whether it’s on the big screen or at home. He used to be a huge Batman fan but has now been asking for everything Spidey. He wants Spiderman figures, mask, costumes – even pleaded that I get him all the Spiderman toys that come with the famous kiddie meals. The Amazing Spiderman 2 has been rated PG so do expect to have a lot of explaining to do when you’re watching with preschoolers. My two kids were generally focused on the movie (except during the hundreds of restroom breaks) but had tons of questions after. Why was the blue man bad? Did Spiderman make him bad? Why was Spiderman very sad? Why did Spiderman let the girl fall? Et cetera, et cetera. Hubby, on the other hand, liked the fact that this version of Spiderman was closer to the comic book series than the previous movie versions. There were parts that were a bit too dragging but the action-filled parts with awesome special effects made up for those bleak scenes.

The Amazing Spiderman 2 would be a great movie date for the entire family. If you haven’t seen it yet (which is highly unlikely), set a family movie date this weekend.
