Comments: OffJuly 28th, 2010 by bluedreamer

Okay, tell me that i am childish or my age is not appropriate to watch such an animated film but no one can stop me from watching Toy Story 3. I am an avid fan of this animated film knowing that it is the first animated film ever produced. And now that they are on the big screen again for their final installment, i never waste any of my time and watch this once in a lifetime event. To make this post short, i am gonna tell you that i really had so much fun in watching Toy Story 3. The film is full of action and drama and of course a moral lesson to everyone. I don’t want to become a spoiler here so i will just give you a sneak peak on what to expect to this film. Our lovely fellow Woody, Buzz Lightyear, Cowgirl, Mr and Mrs Potato, and the rest of the gang will still be in the film. The story is all about Andy who will be turning in to collage and have to decide whether his toys will stay or will be donated. The toys were sent to a daycare and the adventures take place when the gang try to escape “lotso Bear” and to go back to Andi’s house. You’ll gonna love this film 100%

Upcoming Movies of 2010

Comments: 0January 26th, 2010 by bluedreamer

I’m getting so excited for this year’s upcoming movies. It seems that we got all the much awaited movie installments for this year. I don’t know but based on my observation, almost all the movies of the 20th century are remakes of the classic films from the 70’s and 80’s film just like the Clash of the Titans which is an original 1981 fantasy film about the adventure of Perseus. ilming was scheduled to begin in late April 2009, and the film is set to be released on March 26, 2010. Another movie remake is the comedy horror film entitled “Piranha 3D“. It is originally based on the 1978 film with the same title. The film is all about about the swarm of killer piranhas. Another interesting movie would be “The Expandables” which is an action adventure film with a star-studded cast. It includes action film veterans like Sylvester Stallone, Dolph Lundgren, Arnold Schwarzenegger, Bruce Willis, Jet Li, Mickey Rourke and a whole lot more.

We got great movie installments for this year like the much awaited Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows Pt. 1 which would be the second to last installment of this immortalized  novel adaptation. Tony Stark is back with Iron Man 2. Another much awaited film installment would be  The Twilight Saga: Eclipse. There will be another installment of ” The Chronicles of Narnia” entitled The Chronicles of Narnia: The Voyage of the Dawn Treader. Freddie Krueger is back on the screen as A Nightmare On Elm Street is set for another horrifying adventure this year.

2010 is generally for kids. Shrek is set for another movie installment in which i thought would be the last. The famous Lewis Carol’s creation “Alice In Wonderland” is an interesting film to watch too! Another film based on a children’s book would be “Robin Hood“. Unexpected but true, The film that started it all, The first ever 3D animeted film is set for a come back for its 3rd installment, it’s no other than the “Toy Story“

Amazing, i just can’t wait to watch all this films!
