LEGO book nooks are so cool. This one features the Balrog from the Mines of Moria facing off against Gandalf. Open, the Balrog can spread his wings. Closed, it fits onto a bookshelf. I'll be putting it between the books and movies of The Hobbit and The Lord of the Rings. I may have to add a light kit for an even more dramatic effect.
Have you ever felt like you were a misfit in your own life? In Disney’s next animated movie, young Billie Doe feels that way, until she discovers something unexpected: a magical world where she just might fit in.
Here's the official synopsis from Disney:
The new trailer for "Hexed" introduces the impulsive and unconventional teenage girl Billie (Hailee Steinfeld) and her cautious mother, Alice (Rashida Jones). When Billie accidentally unleashes secret magical abilities, she’s hurtled out of suburbia and into a magical realm called Hexe, where she’s greeted by an enchanted feather quill pen, Ms. Quill (Tracy Ullman) and a magical journal, Elias Quire (Stephen Fry). As Billie’s spectacle-filled journey unfolds, she uncovers family mysteries that could change the magical world of witches forever.
A new trailer for Spider-Man: Brand New Dayhas arrived. It looks like Peter Parker has really had it rough since the world forgot him. And now, his mutation is evolving.
It's a BRAND NEW DAY for Peter Parker. Fighting crime full-time as Spider-Man in a world that doesn’t remember him—and the pressure of seeing his old friends move on without him—sparks a change in Peter he may not have the power to control. But that transformation might also be the only thing that can stop a shocking new threat to the city and those he loves - a powerful villain no one can even see.
The world may have forgotten Peter Parker, but he hasn’t forgotten them.
Spider-Man: Brand New Day arrives in theaters on July 31st. A special Amazon Prime early screening hits theaters on July 29th.

The LEGO sets from The Mandalorianare so fun. I recently acquired the N-1 Starfighter set from a few years ago. It has four minifigs: Din Djarin, Grogu, Peli Motto, and a tiny BD Droid. It's a great addition to my ever-growing Star WarsLEGOcollection.
