Summer Hits You Need To See! Pt2

Welcome back guys to our look at this summer's upcoming films that you need to see. So lets not dilly dally and get right into it.

A movie I am really looking forward to personally is How To Train Your Dragon 2. The sequel to Dreamwork's successful animated films and TV series is looking to take a darker approach to the universe then taken before. This all the while as the rich, deep world is looked into more (for those of you who haven't seen the first movie or television series or read the original book series I highly suggest both to those who enjoy nice story and world creation.) Anyway years event the events of the first movie and TV series, the characters are now young adults dealing with taking up the mantel of leadership and facing the idea that this power of the dragon's they've controlled to protect them is not something special that only they have.

Next we have a Guardians of The Galaxy. This movie is another addition to the Marvel universe but will be strange to those not already accustomed to it and only used to the regular Marvel films. Guardians of The Galaxy is a Marvel series that is more of a comedy or parody of what heros are. It's far more comedy based and will almost feel like a parody but its really the story of byronic heros.

And finally we have Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles or TMNT. This reboot to the franchise is the first live action production its had in a long time. And who better to relaunch a franchise then Michael Bay himself (who also got Megan Fox to come in on his new franchise like last time.) While we don't know the exact premise of the movie we know there will be ninjas, pizza and if Bay has anything to say about it, explosions.


Anyway guys that's all I got for you. Maybe there are some movies I didn't mention that you plan on seeing and if so let me know! And check out last week's part 1 if you missed it. 

Summer Hits You Need To See! Pt1

Summer is right around the corner and thus it is appropriate to star talking about to the summer hits you should be getting ready to see, so lets get right into it!

First we have Edge of Tomorrow. Now briefly this movie gives the general audience 3 things it loves. Action/Sci-Fi, great visuals and Tom Cruise. The story is about a soldier who somehow obtains a power that resets him back to a specific time of his life every time he dies. He then uses this power to train again and again to become stronger and help figure out how to defeat the alien threat to civilization.

After that we have the sequel, wittingly named 22 Jump Street (as if that took much thought). Anyway in this sequel the boys, after impressing their boss so much by their work, are being sent of to college. And after seeing how well off they were spoofing high school life, just imagine how well spoofing college with be with all of its stereotypes and tropes. Although with it now being in college you can expect the humor to probably be even more cruder and adult audience oriented.

And finally for today we have Transformers Age of Extinction. With this movie being a semi reboot for the franchise, by removing all the older cast and characters like Shia LaBeouf and Megan Fox, Michael Bay is probably looking to take on a bit of a different feel for the series. Now personally I've never had a problem with the Transformers movies, in fact I own them all on DVD, but since the last one felt almost like a Call of Duty movie with giant robots, it'd be nice for a little mix up. Of course the biggest selling point to fans of the franchise is the introduction of one of the most fan favorite characters from the series, the Dinobots.

Anyway makes sure to check out all the trailers I left for you and come back next week as we continue listing off some of the summer movies you need to see!

News Casting It's Meh

Everyone watches the news. We use it to get information on whats going on in the world all the time. But to me, news production isn't anything exciting. Whenever I'm watching the news it feels like everything is very plain and boring. And no it's not that shots are bad, or the subject is boring, but it doesn't feel like any passion or love is put into it. I believe only through narratives can you get the raw kind of emotion and feeling that really draws one into something. With news it very straightforward. This is what you say, heres some basic footage to report it and lets call it a day. Not to discredit people who do the news, because I can only imagine the stresses of producing that every day and that it must take a lot of talent, I just don't see how people could be passionate about it and able to put their heart into making it. My belief has always been, if you don't love something, who will, so personally I can never expect to work in news casting, because if I don't love making it, who will love watching it?
