the wild things

where the wild things are

based on a childrens book, this movie puts you in the shoes of a young boy whos imagination runs wild. this imagination is unique and through some family problems max (the main character) runs away from home and spends th night in his imaginary world, to escape the one he was already in. every child does this and so the movie sends every adult or teenager a message: that we were all children once, with imaginations just liek this. and that its good to escape for a while fromt he present. but...that doin so never solves any problems cause u always turn up right were you started.

max's adventureous experience take shim to a completely new world full of strange and enormous creatures...however his new world is a dipiction of the world he just escaped from...same problems, different people/ creatures...he tries to sort out these problems in the new world but ends up makign things worse. so he says sorry and leaves it for his newly found freinds/ family to work it out for themselves.

he returns home.
and is happy.

for now...

but whenever he feels lonely or sad again..he knows his friends will be waiting for him.

where the wild things are rated: 3.5/5

james cameron has done it again!

director, writer and producer of titanic, terminator, terminator 2, and aliens.

the story of avatar: jake sully, an ex marine (paraplegic) is shipped off to a remote and hostile planet called pandora. on this planet are an indigenous race called the Na'vi, who are twice the height of a human with blue skin. these religious and warrior type humanoids are being driven out of their home by the humans, as a precious metal is only located on pandora.

jake sully is initiated into the avatar program where his genes are fused with the genes of the na'vi to create an entirely new being that can be remotely controlled by the human through mental thought and expensive mindlink machines/ capsules. the purpose of the avatar program is to socialise with the local people (the omatica'ya people) and make bonds of friendship and offer them medicine, food, etc. however, through a string of unforseen events jake is seperated with his research crew and left in the jungle of pandora to fight for himself. this is when he meets neytiri (the daughter of the chief of the omatica'ya people). she saves him from certain death and brings him into her home to meet her family.

neytiri teaches jake the ways of the omatica'ya, how to shoot a bow and arrow, to hunt, and speak the language of the na'vi. after three months jake becomes one of the people, he becomes a man and falls in love with neytiri, the forrest and the people. but when the miners reach a sacred spot jake is enraged and retaliates against his own people.

his general locks him up and cuts off all his avatar work so that jake cant warn the omatica'ya people of the impending doom. the humans are going to destroy home tree.

this act creates a rift between jake and neytiri, so he breaks out of prison and finds an isolated spot to access his avatar and protect the na'vi from the human siege.

this is probably a lame depiction of the plot. but i dont care.

i love this movie.
i officially claim this movie as my number one of all time!

because of the story, the original characters, the amazing landscape and creatures and the amazing graphics. it is an epic movie of infinite proportions...i literally dont think a movie will match avatar for years to come. not for its detail or shear amazingness...

avatar rated: 6/5

new moon

well the highly anticipated new moon from the so called "twilight saga" was a huge success to me in many ways. but it also had some dissapointing bits in it...namely kristen stewarts acting and the last scene of the movie, and the clip of bella and edward running like lil girls in th forrest (the future bella and edward apparenlty)

but the rest of the movie was pretty awesome
the soundtrack to twilight was amazing and this new moon soundy was just as good. props to the man/ woman in charge! :)

the movie was made pretty much like the book, new moon being th least interesting book in th series the director made it pretty good.

big plus of this movie = jacob black
he has the best looking abs in the world! also his arms are pretty buff!

the graphics for the wolves were pretty sick aswell...and the volturi were well portrayed aswell i think...we will have to wait and see how they go in th fourth film...which i cant wait for! :)


anyway new moon was pretty good all in all...apart from those few scenes

new moon rated: 3/5
