this summer gonna have a lot of anticipated movies…
I just watched the first one this afternoon, Iron Man…it was totally cool!!!makes me wanna watch it again, but i’d rather save my money for other next movies…hahaha…
Speed Racer has also come out since yesterday…at first I thought it’s gonna be cool, ‘cos it’s from old cartoon show and directed by Wachowsky brothers who created the Matrix…but after seeing the trailer I kinda doubted it…I feel that it has just too many CGs (computer graphics) and too many colours that might make it seems too unrealistic…but let’s just see how it’s gonna be…
and the next schedules are (some are still in USA release date, not sure about Indonesia):
May 15th The Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian
I want to watch this…another series of Narnia…epic and fantasy movie, the genre I like, and it’s Narnia…certainly gonna watch this…
May 22rd Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skull
the sequel of the legendary Indiana Jones…many people like the old series of Indiana Jones so maybe this one gonna be good also…kinda interested in watching it…
whew…four weeks in a row…actually the next week there’s Sex and the City the movie, but I’m not interested in it…
June 6th Kungfu Panda
an animation from Dreamworks (creator of Shrek) and it seems funny…gonna watch it, but maybe not in cinema…hehehe…
June 13th The Incredible Hulk

June 27th WALL-E
a Pixar animation!!I have no doubt of Pixar animations, they’re all cool!!I saw the trailer also, looks great!!
July 18th The Dark Knight
the sequel of Batman Begins…maybe this will be the last queue of this summer movies, and I expect this to be great, so this summer will be opened by a great movie and will be ended with another great movie…hahaha…I’m really looking forward to this…
Bee Movie – faithful with small things, do your part April 29, 2008

In a bee nation, every bee work hard to produce honey. Barry Benson, a freshgraduate bee, don’t like the work in the honey factory, and when he decide to join the Pollen Jocks, bee forces that collects nectar from flowers, he met with a human girl and found out that human has been exploiting bees to get honey. Barry tried to sue human for this and ended up with messing up life balance and making all plants and flowers wilt. He must return all this back to normal.
First, this movie reminds us to concern small things. Barry said, “Let me tell you something about a small job. If you do it really well, it makes a big difference. More than we realize. To us, to everyone.” I agree with him. Every big thing starts from small things. Bible also says something about this. Luke 16:10 says “He who is faithful in a very little [thing] is faithful also in much, and he who is dishonest and unjust in a very little [thing] is dishonest and unjust also in much.” (AMP) If we start to be faithful in small things, to do bigger things will be easier.
Second, each of us have our part. The bees have their own part in this life cycle and when they started to do what’s not their part, it all became messed up. The same with us, sometimes when we’re trying to do what’s not our part, especially God’s part, we will just mess up everything. So just do your best in your part!
Bridge to Terabithia – don’t waste your time April 8, 2008

Jess Aarons, a very shy boy, becomes good friends with Leslie Burke, a new very-imaginative girl in his school. Together they create their own fantasy world called Terabithia in the forest nearby their homes while they struggle against bullying in their school. One day, while Jess was going with her teacher to a museum, Leslie got an accident while swinging by the rope that leads to Terabithia and brought to her death. Jess keeps Leslie ‘alive’ by reliving Terabithia with her little sister, May Belle.
This movie tells us a lot about friendship. We can be friends with anyone if we want to open our life to them, accept them as they are. It also teach us to see our life from a new point of view. How we can enjoy this life depends on how positive we think it is. Jess who at first couldn’t enjoy his life because of problems he faces in school and home, finally can start to enjoy his life with their Terabithia. It doesn’t mean that we have to create our own world and become a freak, but we think of everything around us, even problems, as something fun. I think it can help us to enjoy life more.
One thing that really gets into me is when Jess cried for Leslie’s death and he’s afraid if she’s going to hell because she didn’t believe in the Bible. I don’t wanna talk about where she’s going after her death. Well, I believe that we can only be saved if we accept Jesus Christ as our God and Saviour, so I think she’s not saved yet. But one thing I was reminded is about don’t waste your time. We live with many people around us and we don’t know when any of us will die. So don’t be like Jess who regrets after his best friend died. Let’s use our time wisely (as the Bible says), let us be a blessing for people around us, spread the good news that Jesus died for them so that they are also saved.
Ghost Rider – the devil is a liar March 25, 2008

A story about Johnny Blaze, a stunt driver like his father who traded his soul to the devil for his father to be cured from his cancer. His father indeed cured in the next morning, but died in his stunt performance that day. Many years later, after he has been a famous stunt driver, he meet again with the devil who asks him to be a Ghost Rider as mentioned in the contract he signed with his blood before. With the form of skeleton bursts in flame, the Ghost Rider asked to stop Blackheart from getting enormous power from the Contract of San Venganza.
From the beginning of the story, I had been reminded about the work of the devil. After the death of Johnny’s father, the devil said “I only said that I will cure his cancer, but I cannot let him be an obstacle between you and me”. As the Bible says, the devil only do tricks . He may offer us many good things, but in the end, he will just destroy us.(John 10:10 – The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly).
That’s what I remember most of this movie. I forgot the others. It has been a few days and I didn’t take a note. Heehee…
