Male Scrapbookers: Scrapbooking in the Movies - 'Taken' on DVD

Monday June 1, 2009
The movie 'Taken' starring Liam Neeson is now available on DVD. Neeson plays a character named Bryan Mills, a former CIA agent with a very dangerous set of skills. This tough-guy, action thriller took a fascinating turn for me when Neeson's character printed out a photo that he took at his estranged daughter's birthday party so that he could add it to a scrapbook that he has been keeping since she was little. You see the softer side of this former black ops agent as he carefully tapes the photo in place and then flips back through the previous pages in the scrapbook. If you like high-adrenaline, action thrillers this is the movie for you, and as an added bonus the main character happens to be possibly the most unexpected scrapbooker. You can read more about the movie from Ivana, About.com's Guide to Home Videos.

Most scrapbookers tend to be women, however men bring a unique perspective and style to their scrapbook pages. Do you know a man who scrapbooks, or do you have a male in your family who has taken up the hobby? Select all the answers in this poll that apply to you.

I really wish my husband would scrap with me, maybe then he wouldn’t complain that he never gets to talk or be with me when I scrap. Besides I go fishing with him sometimes. Fairs Fair I reckon.

There wasn’t quite the right option–I voted my husband was, but he really isn’t–he has just made 2 layouts for me as birthday presents in the past.
