The Phantom Menace

From Imdb:

Two Jedi Knights escape a hostile blockade to find allies and come across a young boy who may bring balance to the Force, but the long dormant Sith resurface to claim their old glory.

From me:

Ok, so the description that IMDB gave was, how shall we say it, not that informative. But let me just say that if you watch it you will not, I repeat will not be disappointed!! This movie is wonderful. One of the best in the saga. Out of all 8 movies it probably takes 3rd place for the best. I didn't actually mention this, but "The Phantom Menace" is the 1st Star Wars in the saga. Now technically movies 4, 5, and 6 came before movies 1, 2, and 3. Sorry, kinda complicated.

Anywho, here is a fun fact: During the pod race all of the background scenery...computer generated. The pod racers were props though.

All right this is my description of the movie so if you haven't seen it and want to...STOP!

Jedi knights, Qui-Gon Jinn and Obi Wan Kenobi, escape a trade blockade, their space ship crash lands on Tatooine, gets damaged, they go into town to find a piece they need for their ship. They find a local boy who may be the one that brings the force back into balance, and last but not least, they save Naboo from the separatists.

p.s.
Life was crazy busy these past few weeks so I may not get all 8 movies posted by May 4th.

Blogger Anniversary!!!!!

      This is my 2nd year anniversary for blogging!! Yahoo!
     Now granted I don't actually remember the exact day I began blogging, but I do know it was sometime in Feb.
     If your looking at the date for the welcome post and your like "Whaaat?!? It says here you started blogging on Sept. 27, 2017". Don't worry, I'll explain. I did have a different blog (it was kinda weird...not that proud of it). Anyways, moving on...
     I'm having a lot of fun blogging and I really hope you are enjoying reading what I post!

until next time....

Black Panther

From IMDB:

T'Challa, the King of Wakanda, rises to the throne in the isolated, technologically advanced African nation, but his claim is challenged by a vengeful outsider who was a childhood victim of T'Challa's father's mistake.

My perspective:

     Black Panther was a good movie. It wasn't my favorite movie...but it was good. I don't know if this was the case, but I didn't feel that this movie made as much progress in the story as it should have. It did wrap things up and had a good ending, but if you watch other Marvel movies it seems THEY accomplish a lot of the story during the movie.
 
     The country in Black Panther, Wakanda, is really advanced in their tech, and in the movie they do some really cool things with their technology( I mean REALLY cool!)
 
     All in all this movie was entertaining, but I would not go watch it more than 2 times.

     If you have seen this movie yet feel free to post what you thought of it in the comments. I'd love to know.
   
 I'd have to give Black Panther 7 out of 10 stars

Murder on the Orient Express!!

    I know this is a little late, seeing how this movie came to theaters in November, but I wanted to do this post because I really liked Murder on the Orient Express! The movie was well made and it kept you guessing till the very end...at least it did for me. For instance, I thought I knew who the murder was one second. Then I changed my mind. Then I changed my mind yet again. I'm tell'n you, it should not take me almost the whole movie to figure out who the murderer is.😐

     Also I couldn't understand a lot of the movie due to the loud people, quiet movie theater speakers, and the characters awesome but hard to understand accents. Especially the detective, Hercule Poirot. That name does not sound like how it looks, but is that not an AWSOME name!!

Overall I'd give this an 8 out of 10 stars!

JUMANJI

     "Jumanji: Welcome to the Jungle" was fun movie. First off I thought it was cool how they made the main characters be the characters in the game. And it was cool how the creators of "Jumanji" made everything be just like a computer game!! AWSOME!!!
      Now, Jumanji defiantly has quite a bit of crude humor, so I could see a lot of people not watching "Jumanji", because of the "humor" it contains. Frankly I found most of it hilarious, though!😏
 
     "Jumanji" was totally entertaining and it was very enjoyable!!It did have quite a bit of language. Which it's not as fun when a movie has language.

I'd give "Jumanji 7 out of 10 stars
