Burger King has teamed up with Sony Pictures Animation for the Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs movie, which is currently in theaters. As part of the promotion, they are supporting Feeding America by promoting awareness of Feeding America's childhood hunger and empowerment in kids initiatives.
Within seven days of launching the new Burger King kids’ site ClubBK.com to get kids rallied behind Feeding America, kids have donated more than one million "Crowns" earned through a movie-themed online game to support the cause! On the site, they can also access more information about the charity and get tips on how to support local food banks.
As the weather turns cooler, I know we're looking for more indoor activities to enjoy as a family. While going to the movies isn't something we spend money on regularly, it is a fun treat that we all enjoy. Luckily, we can still treat the kids occasionally using the coupons from our Entertainment Book. Plus there are a ton of family-geared movies soon to be released, including Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs!
This week, one lucky Deal Seeking Mom reader will win a prize package that includes:
- $20 BK Crown Card to grab a bite to eat before or after the movie
- $40 movie gift card to see the film
- Full set of Club BK Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs kids toys
- Club BK’s Adventures newsletter
- Original Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs book

I really like the Harry Potter series.
I subscribe to your RSS. Thanks!
My favorite movie based on a book is ANY of the Harry Potter books/movies! Although they do leave a lot out in the movies, but I guess a 6 hour movie wouldn't be so popular!
Thanks!

Well, it is not out yet, but I am SOOOO excited to see Where the Wild Things Are. That was my favorite book when I was a kid and the movie looks soooo cute. I can't wait to see it!

Shopaholic! The movie came out about a year ago and is based on a series of books. I have read all of the books and I loved the movie.
I have you in my google reader... does that count?
We did see this movie at our local kid/wallet friendly theater. Well worth the $3 matinee price! Different than the book, but fun.
I love any movie based on a book that will get my kids to read. But, my favorite one is still the Tale of Despereaux...it was very cute.
The Princess Bride. I've seen it so many times I can practically quote the whole movie! :) As you wish...
Gone with the Wind!! Such a classic!

Love the old classics. My favorite is A Christmas Carol by Charles Dickens. I love the one with George C Scott as Eboneezar Scrooge, but I never met a Christmas Carol I didn't like. I even watch the cartoons and the old black and whites. BTW I love your site!!
The special effects in the Harry Potter movies help bring the books to life.
The Lord of the Rings series :)
Oh I am going to have to say My Sisters Keeper. The book was soooo much better than the movie though.
I have your badge on my right side bar!
