Here are some of my own personal thoughts.
— Favorite Movie: “The Karate Kid.”
I can feel this entry, I mean Jaden Smith really did a great job in this role. The fact that is was Kung Fu though threw me for a loop while watching it. I mean how hard would it have been to have made it about Karate? Jackie Chan had another great role here, and I thought the actors really carried this film.
Did not see it, but it sure looked visually stunning. Johnny Depp though based on past experience alone can get the nod from me.
— Favorite Movie Actress: Miley Cyrus, “The Last Song.”
I really think Miley is a real good actress. Far better than people give her credit for because of how she acts sometimes. Also even on a kids show (Hannah Montana) you could always see that should would be a wonderful actress in more adult roles. Plus she can sing and dance so you have the official triple threat.
— Favorite Animated Movie: “Despicable Me.”
You know I only caught the shorts from this film, not the whole film itself. The shorts and trailers were so funny I can only imagine that the movie would be great. The problem is wasn’t Toy Story 3 also out this year? So you have a funny movie versus a more emotional funny movie. I would have thought Toy Story 3 was a lock here.
— Favorite Voice from an Animated Movie: Eddie Murphy, “Shrek Forever After.”
It is Eddie Murphy, the guy can even make a Donkey funny.
— Favorite Butt-kicker: Jackie Chan, “The Karate Kid.”
Agreed, see above.
— Favorite TV Show: “iCarly.”
As you know, I am not a huge iCarly fan. It is the Nickelodeon Kids Choice Awards though. My pick here is probably Wizards of Waverly Place or Hannah Montana.
— Favorite TV Actor: Dylan Sprouse, “The Suite Life on Deck.”
While I am also not a huge fan of the show, Dylan really does a good job at his role. Also since he has more screen time than a lot of the actors he gets to show those skills a bit more.
— Favorite TV Actress: Selena Gomez, “Wizards of Waverly Place.”
Agreed, even though I would have taken Miley Cyrus here as well. I am a huge fan of Wizards and Selena does a great job on the show.
— Favorite TV Sidekick: Jennette McCurdy, “iCarly.”
Even though I am not a huge fan of iCarly, I do think Jennette McCurdy does a great job with the role. I am ok with this pick as well. I would have accepted Emily Osment though as well.
— Favorite Reality Show: “American Idol.”
Not too many reality shows that are kid friendly so Ill also make this my pick.
— Favorite Cartoon: “SpongeBob SquarePants.”
I like SpongeBob, my kids like SpongeBob so it is a good pick. I will say though I think people underestimate the goodness that is Johnny Test.
— Favorite Music Group: Black Eyed Peas.
Ok, I dont really have another good pick for this one.
— Favorite Female Singer: Katy Perry.
Hmm, Taylor Swift would have been my pick.
— Favorite Male Singer: Justin Bieber.
Agreed, no one can stand in front of Bieber. This kid does it all.
— Favorite Song: Justin Bieber, “Baby.”
Also like the fact that Luda is on this song so I can buy in.
— Favorite Male Athlete: Shaquille O’Neal.
Always fun, always entertaining. The sports world is going to miss him for those reasons when he does retire.
— Favorite Female Athlete: Lindsey Vonn.
Agreed.
— Favorite Book: “Diary of a Wimpy Kid” series.
Yeah I like these books a lot, I just think you have to really get the age range right when giving them to your kids.
— Favorite Video Game: “Just Dance 2.”
Maybe everyone does not have a Kinect, but Dance Revolution was the best game out last year, not even a question
