HOP’s New Mini Movie

I don’t know about you, but I loved the movie HOP, which came out to theatres last Spring. I took my whole family to see it, and it was a hit among all of us. It was such an adorable movie about Easter, which was full of laughs.

To entertain us this Spring, they have come out with this new “sneak peep” of the HOP Blu-ray and DVD bonus feature “Phil’s Dance Party.”

It’s an all-new mini-movie starring fan-favorite chicks Phil and Carlos. Phil’s enthusiastic dance moves are a knock out in more ways than one!

The clip can be seen below:
