My family loves to gather around and play board games. There are a lot of tweens in our family who love to play along with us, yet get frustrated at not knowing a lot of the answers to trivia based games. They're too young to know about JFK, the Clinton/Lewinsky Scandal, or the "Rocky" movies. We enjoy DVD games because they incorporate a fun, multimedia experience unlike Monopoly...

  The DVD board game Scene It? is a fun family game for all ages to play together. It is a game that 2 or more players can play either in teams or seperately. The DVD portion includes great movie clips that you will have to answer a question about, and puzzles to solve. It is a great party game since many people can play it,and it is very fun. There are a few problems that are easily overl...

I took my brother to San Diego's Sea World for his birthday and per his request purchased tickets and went on their advertised "Behind the Scenes Tour" where we were taken through "employee only" areas in the park. It seemed like a great idea at the moment, then we met our tour guide. No offense to her but I tried to escape every chance I got. We were told we weren't...

I received the Pirates of the Caribbean: Scene It? board game for Christmas. I had already owned the Disney Version of the Scene It? games. I found that the Pirates of the Caribbean game had more features and surprises throughout the game play then the Disney Version. It's a very fast playing game. The board is not very big but it was FUN and that is the main point in playing a game, having...

I remember playing board games as a kid such as Trouble, Connect Four, Operation, etc. very enjoyable. But as I got older, I lost some interest in it until now. My mother purchased the Scene It Movie Edition; with a DVD game disc that comes along with.Basically it's a trivia game set in four movie genres-sci-fi, romance, comedy and action. What makes it even more fun you can watch real movi...

My personal favorite board games are the Scene It series as I already have the movie and TV edition. Recently my mom purchased the Music Scene It? The DVD Game as a family gift. The music version would challenge your knowledge of different music from R&B to country. Many of the challenges in the game include instrumental music (or elevator music) of a song to guess, music video cl...

Scene It is a DVD game that has two aspects of play involved. To play this game, you need the board that the game comes with, the board folds out into a large game surface or folds in for a shorter, more of a quick game setup. The pieces the game comes with represent the movie theme, with a movie reel and the popcorn tub being the most popular pieces in my house! The cards and question come in ...

Scene It the Disney DVD edition is a specific edition to the scene it brand games. The Disney edition has a fun variety of options, and questions that fit only into the Disney world of characters. I personally love the variety of characters-my daughter loves the princess characters, but I am more of a fan of older Disney movies and characters. This game lets a variety of players at different ag...

Scene It is a fun DVD based game that had a board, pieces, and cards. The DVD is the main use of the game, it is a fun game for 2 or more people to play. The music edition is based on old to new music, artists and songs.The game is fun, and I have played it a few times and really enjoy it. Like most of these party games, the more players you have the more fun you have-it will play better and ea...

My family love to sit and play board games.  We bought this game for our daughter for Christmas last year and we have had so much fun with it so far.  Every one loves this game.  It has music tirvia, T.V. trivia, Movie trivia from all years.  We find this game to be really fun and offers such a wide variety of catagories that it is hard to have the same question twice with o...

My husband and I received this game as a Christmas gift. If you are a Seinfeld fan like we are, then this game is for you. It has lots of trivia questions that you wouldn't expect someone to ask, but that is what makes this game even more fun. It challenges you to think hard before you answer. The most difficult part of the game  is on the trivia cards. There are questio...

I wouldn't say I'm the biggest Disney fan in the world, or anywhere close but I am definitely somewhat of a big fan.  I grew up in the 80's when all of the great Disney movies were released like "The Little Mermaid," "Beauty and the Beast," "Aladdin," "The Lion King," etc.  I am also a big fan of board games so when I can incorporate...

My favorite artwork in our home is by a local, incredibly talented painter, Zoltan Steiner.  Living in Florida, artists that paint ocean scenes are a dime a dozen. But Steiner's work is one of a kind. The thing that impresses me the most, is his ability to make the water look wet. He can capture the reflection of light in a puddle, so that it looks incredibly real.The painting that is ...

My daughter loves to watch CSI, all of them and is loves science so I thought this would be a great gift for her. In all honesty this is something I would have loved to have had when I was her age. The CSI facial reconstruction kit comes with a head form, plastic eyes, a form for a nose, a form for ears, 2 pounds of clay, sculpting tools, spacers, a rolling pin and a thing to roll the clay...

I am a total Disney nut so pretty much anything Disney we own.  So I bought this game for the family game nights and have been happy with it.  It is a DVD game so obviosly you need a DVd player and the bingo cards and chips provided.  It says on the box that it is for kids 4 and older but I don't agree with that.  I understand that there are small pieces in the box but i...

My mother-in-law bought me this game because I am hopelessly addicted to CSI and most other shows dealing with forensics. I find this a fascinating subject and love to see how crimes are solved using the smallest pieces of evidence.CSI: Dark Motives is a really interesting game. You play as a rookie CSI agent and are given a murder to solve with the help of the other CSI agents. You have access...

If you are a fan of the original CSI: Crime Scene Investigation show and like playing pc games, than I'm sure you'll love this one. It's CSI: Crime Scene Investigation Dark Motives put out by Ubisoft. It's a 3 cd set game and is a interactive games that allows you to follow along with the CSI team as they investigate cases. As a part of the team it is up to you to evaluate the e...

The Scene It Disney Edition DVD game is a fun family game. I really like the fact that all members of my family were able to play this game. Almost everyone knows Disney movies so you do not have to be an expert at Disney. The set up is very easy. The directions were easy to follow even for my six year old. There were only two things I did not like about this game. The first is the way the fina...

It's rare that I'll buy a game I can't play by myself. With the advent of Xbox Live that's getting less true, but Scene-It was meant to be played the old fashioned way: in a room full of people. For a game like that to be successful, it doesn't need the best graphics or sound, but it better be accessible and fun. Scene-It hits the mark on both accounts. The accessibility is ...

  I was given the CSI: Double Down puzzle as a gift at Christmas.  My sister came over and we decided we'd work on it together along with my husband.  The contents of the picture is a crime scene, so I don't suggest putting the CSI puzzles together with children.    Piecing this together was quite a challenge because not one picture of the actual puzzl...
