ARTHUR CHRISTMAS

This movie shows us how christmas has changed during the years and how the magic of it all comes tumbling down. In Christmas, every child that believes in Santa sleep with the thought of having a gift under the tree in the morning. In the movie a very faithful chid ask for a "pink twinkle bike" and she is very excited for it because every child that actually mails a note to the North Pole has to believe in Santa. Also, the movie presents all the santa's thru out history and by the photos the difference between St. Nicolas and the last Santa, its a pretty big difference between appearance and laziness. From all the Santa's I prefer Grandsanta, he may be old but he still believes in the magic of Christmas. In the movie, Christmas has changed and has moved into a military state of order and speed. Santa only delivers one present now and because of that he is very lazy, in one scene a child wakes up and Santa is in the room. The importance of Santa not being scene is very big because Santa is only one man that lives in the North Pole and if someone knows that he is real, the world would go crazy looking for him and Christmas would be ruined.  I was a believer in Santa until one Christmas morning I woke up early and saw my mom putting a present under the tree. My reaction was "I knew it". The technology that the North Pole uses in the movie is something out of this world. Santa doesn't use a sleigh anymore, he uses a big ship that travels faster than the speed of sound. The evolution is understandable but it takes the magic out of Christmas and its just not the same. Moral of the story: Don't let techology ruin the magic.

THE ADVENTURES IN BABYSITING

In this movie witch we finished to watch last week had allot of important scene such as: the part that they're in a building with there friend who was a bad guy, when the real bad guy shows up he says to there friend to hand over the kids, this show true friendship when he decides to punch the bad guy and help them escape. The other scene is when the arrive at there home and a friend of Chris brought the little girl her skate, this show that love is so strong that it can drive someone to do these sorts of things. For me the message in the movie is to always be responsible and have a quick thinking because this movie has allot of this and the main goal is to teach us about family too, they survived the night because they stayed together and helped each other. my thoughtS of the movie are that it was GREAT. The movie had action, comedy, a little drama, love, this movie is a perfect family movie to if you want to laugh more than you want to feel awkward. With the critic that Roger did I do agree with him because it was a parte in the movie that make us feel relaxed and feel joy because even the they where being chases, just by singing they relaxed and jus sang along. With the other critic of Roger, I guess that in the term of realism he is right and I agree with him, the movie had some scene where the situation didn't had a real probability in happening in real life. Ignoring all this, its a great movie and I really recommend it.

MONSTER HOUSE & HOCUS POCUS

Both of these films are based halloween and mysterious happenings in the day. In both of the movies, children are the protagonist and their purpose is to solve the problem. The feelings that are more addressed in the films are fear, friendship, love and intelligence. The superstitions appeared in the form of possession, witches, magic and zombies. The situation in each of the movies was to stop the evil and save the day with a happy ending. They way that the manage to stop the problems was successful but it also had it flaws. The movie "Monster House" teacher us that sometimes you have to let go of the people that pass away in our lives so we can live better and in the movie "Hocus Pocus" the lesson is that family is always important.

"ITS EASY TO PROMISE THE IMPOSSIBLE"

This quote from the movie "Frankenweenie" is a very difficult quote to understand. From my opinion it means that not everything in life is going to last forever or is going to be yours. Thing in life will always last a very short time or will not be there when you want it or need it. In Frankenweenie, the connection between Victor and Sparky was so strong that even death couldn't separate them. Love is what makes things that don't last very long, infinite. So when you want to have something that will be with you until you die, love and take care of it.

"I ALWAYS BELIEVED THAT THE WORLD IS A MACHINE,  ALL OF US WERE MADE FOR A PURPOSE"

I have to agree with Hugo in this quote of his. He came up with this quote because of his life and work. This quote expreses the purpose of us people and how we work. Everyone has to do something in their life and the one who don't do something, are wasting it. People can make great things if they commit and work hard on their goal. Anybody can change the world just like Hugo. He teaches us that in the worst moments possible in life you going to have to face them and complete you're purpose.

"GOONIES NEVER SAY DIE"

This quote from the movie "The Goonies" says basically to never give up. In this movie the Goonies go on a dangerous adventure to find a treasure. In this type of adventure one would want to do the opposite of that but Mikey says otherwise. This serves as a big example saying that no matter how difficult or scary something is, don't stop trying until you make it. The Goonies never gave up and ended successful in they're adventure. Someday you will find something in you're life that might seem imposible, but no matter what you're going to jump over it no matter how hard and no matter how much you fail. NEVER GIVE UP.

"LET LOVE GUIDE YOUR ACTIONS, AND ONE DAY YOU'LL BE A MAN"

This quote from the movie "Brother Bear" Say that being strong and muscular doesn't make you a man, it takes so much more. This movie helped me realise that to become a man one must learn to love it self and others. When Kenai became a bear he was being followed by he's brother thinking he was dead. Kenny met Koda and together they bonded and became best friends. Kenai learned how bears loved each other and realised that bears and humans had allot of similarities.

"A PERSON IS A PERSON, NO MATTER HOW SMALL"

This quote is from the movie "Horton Hears a Who" has a meaning, I think that the meaning of this quote is always be yourself and never let anybody make you feel like nothing. People will try to make you cry or try to ruin you're day. No matter what others say you are yourself and nobody can change that. Being yourself is what matters and always be yourself, ignore all the people that don't like the real you. You are important in every way.
