    Al was absolutely spot on! Spy Kids absolutely does have a Latin flavour baked into it and it was done on purpose! It makes the movie way better. Everything from the soundtrack to the casting to the script, I love when Carmen uses her full name as a passcode. I wanted a name like that lol. But seriously this movie made feel Latin families were the coolest.

      The Salvation Army is actual a horrible "charity" to back. In terms of disaster services they're known to self-deploy even if they aren't invited by the hosting agency and then give said agency a bill for the service of everyone working for them (including volunteers) and the supplies they gave out (even the things that were donated). It's not their fault but they should find a real charity or disaster relief program to contribute to.

    I grew up watching Alexa in the Spy Kids movies! I never thought I would one day see her marrying one of the guys from Big Time Rush! I also remember watching them compete against each other on DWTS a few years ago (Carlos came in 4th while Alexa came in third)! Not to mention their two sons have very similar names (Ocean King and Kingston James)! And their daughter’s full name is Rio Rey PenaVega (the middle name apparently means King in Spanish)! Other than that, maybe I should get their children’s book for my niece and nephew one day!
