Durmada's Movies To Watch In 2008: Chronicals of Narnia

By Derek Fisher

This is a small selection of the movies released this year (2008). I have chosen a few of the motion pictures I found entertaining in this years crop. I'm sure that you can find a couple of movies that you will enjoy.

Jumper: Nearing death by drowning, David realizes he has an unbelievable ability. He has the ability to transport himself to anywhere he desires to be, anytime he wants. Later, he becomes aware that he is not the only one that has this capability. Unfortunately, after a few years of fun, he finds out that there are those that want him, and all the jumpers wiped out. He must fight for his life, as those people try to track him down.

BOLT: Bolt: This movie is a fun animation. The star is dog actor Bolt, who plays the role of a dog that has super hero dog powers. The thing about Bolt is that he really thinks he is this super hero dog with superpowers. When he is accidently finds himself in a real world situation, he realizes that he is only a normal dog. Now, trying to get back home, he is aided by a cat named Mittens, and an overweight hampster named Rhino.

THE CHRONICALS OF NARNIA, PRINCE CASPIAN: It is one year later, in "real" time, when Peter, Susan, Edmund, and Lucy are teleported back to Narnia. Fearing for his life Prince Caspian has blownn the magic horn, hoping to be saved. In Narnia, 1,300 years have passed since they were Kings and Queens, but the four legendary characters have be summoned back to save Narnia from the evil Telmarines. With the support of the brave warriors of Narnia, they will fight for the future of Narnia.

WANTED: Wesley, an office worker going nowhere in life, learns that his father, who he never really knew, is an assasin. His father has been murdered, now Wesley is asked to join into the secret society of killers that his dead father was involved with. He is transformed from a nobody office worker into the killing expert that is in his blood. From that point on, this movie gets very complex and twisted. Hang on to your seat.

THE DARK KNIGHT: This time Batman, along with Lieutenant Jim Gordon and District Attorney Harvey Dent, have been taking down the criminal elements of the city. Crime is now down, but now a new super criminal arrives on the scene, and attacks the city. Now, Batman really has his hands full, as the Joker has unleashed his criminal plots on the big city.

TWENTY ONE: The basis for this film is the actual tale about M.I.T. students who built a team of blackjack winners. This team of blackjack players prepared and then enacted a brilliant run at the blackjack tables. To beat the games in Vegas, where card counting can get you banned, they had to change casinos often, and disguise themselves, so the wouldn't get caught. This movie is based on the best selling book that explains how these kids made millions playing blackjack.

10,000 B.C.: This cinematic production sends us back to prehistoric times. When rival hunters storm the Yaghai people, they kidnap the beautiful Evolet. A strong young hunter, D'Leh, who is in love with her, organizes a band of hunters to chase down these warmongers, and rescue Evolet and the others.

WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS: Wild and crazy nights in Las Vegas are normal. Barely remembering what had happened, Jack and Joy wake up to discover that they are married. They wind up winning a large jackpot at the slot machines, but each thinks they deserve the prize, so they try to settle it in court. It is decided that they must stay together for six months, and give their marriage a chance. With an eye on the jackpot, they each try to get the other to give up, as both desire to have the cash for themselves.

WALL-E: This picture is an animated, comedy, adventure, sci-fi. Everyone has been removed from Earth because it had become a big pile of trash. Wall-E, a trash collecting robot, is assigned to continue cleaning. Years later, when a robot namend Eve shows up searching for any signs of life, Walle-E has a friend. When Eve is retrieved by the spaceship that sent her, Wall-E sneaks aboard, and begins an exciting new life.

Most people buy or rent films, and views them on their home entertainment system. A more recent method for getting films is through downloads from the internet. Online providers have websites that offer downloading of virtually any movie ever made. - 2361
