Our Camera Escapades :)

Recently in media we were given the chance to go out and use the camera's to film some of the shots that we would be using when producing our films. Sgt Pepper Productions (Greg, James and myself) have used this time to film our shots, and we will be uploading them on our next blogs :) till then...

My movie idea for AS media :)

Title: "Soup heroes and the theft of the magic cape"

In media we have been given the task to pitch a movie to our teacher Mr Earl :). My friend and I got given the choice of either a superhero style  movie or a childrens movie. Obviously we went for the superhero one :)

Here's our pitch;

There are three main characters: Fat Batman, really dumb Piderman and Larry Plopper.

The plot of the film is that Fat Batmans magic cape has gone missing and he accuses  really dumb Piderman of stealing it as it has been really dumb Piderman's dream to get it. This is when Larry Plopper arrives, claiming that he can find the magic cape (when really he can't).

They then follow Larry Plopper into a dreary cave underneath a roundabout (the ones that you find in children's parks) in which they find the Blue Lantern, Wonder Bra Woman, Automatic Betty, Really dumb Superman, Evil Baman, Ming the Minger, and The Smoker, who all live in a cave with a creepy old man who can see the future.

After seeing that they shall embark on a journey with their superhero friends, in which they get into all kinds of trouble. For example, Larry Plopper gets killed by Mouldywart and the Fig and Lord GaGa fight about their true identities and scratch each others eyes out.

At the end Fat Batman gets his cape back but the magic has been stolen out of it leaving it open for a sequel....

your thoughts please :)

Finally the new HALO is here :)

Yes, the long awaited "HALO reach" is finally here! For those huge fans of the "HALO" series, you will be glad to know that it has been given a 10 out of 10 and has been quoted as "Masterful". We all know that the people of the gaming world have been looking forward to this day since the anti-climatic theatricals of the second installment and the dissapointing experimentation of "ODST". Lets just hope for the best eyy??

my thoughts on this years movie contributions

As we all know, the film industry has come up with some of the greatest films ever this year. So far they have come up with masterpeices such as "Avatar" and "Tamara Drew". They have captured our hearts when watching but I cant help but wonder if the industry its self has gone too far this year? Take "Avatar" for example, it was a blockbuster hit at first, but will it be the second time round? They have only added an extra 10 or so minutes and they have released it in the 3D format again. Which brings me to another point, it seems to me that almost every film director in the world has jumped on the "Lets make a 3D movie" bandwagon this year. Here's a list of the best and worst;
1) jackass 3D
2) piranah 3D
3) Step Up 3D
4) Saw 3D
5) Avatar in 3D (the new version).
 I know that "Avatar" was originally brought out in 3D but i have placed it at the bottom of the list for the fact that I think that it won't catch on as much as it did earlier this year. Plus I myself have no respect for directors that keep releasing a movie just because it was a huge hit the first time round.

my next entry: HALO reach :)
