My first Movie Making project


a.       The Great Escape
b.      Joesu Sepulveda and Ireliz Reyes
c.       March 15, 2011
d.      Luquillo, PR
e.      A plastic bag (parachute) and the pan (where the egg was cooked)
f.        SMF- Hahaha
g.       Shows many clips in which the egg was rolling as if it was escaping from a military camp and it throws itself from a roof with a parachute but is caught in a trap and falls in frying pan.

·         I had a random idea of making an egg movie.
·          It wasn’t easy at all doing this project, first I had to wake up early on a Sunday to go all the way to Luquillo which is like a 1 and a half hour drive, while recording one of the eggs that was thrown in the pool I had to get it and the pool was really cold and not just that, her house is in a mountain and the wind was really strong and I was freezing to death, then recording  the egg and braking in about 5 times, and then having to edit it in my house very late at night.

Joe's Theater ^^

A.    Movies I Love:

Movie #1:
Title: Avatar

Starring: Sam Worthington and Zoe Saldana

Jake Sally was a marine who was injured and used a wheel chair to move. He enters in this project of a distant planet called Pandora. Jake was used as a spy to help the marines but he ends falling in love with Neytiri and he’s intuited in the tribe and wants to stay as an Avatar and protect them against the powerful attack of the military in the Avatars sacred tree. These Avatars represent the conquer of Native Americans by the whites. The graphics are the best I have seen in a movie at the time. It truly amazed me and I recommend it to everyone who hasn’t seen it.
It truly made an impact on me for care of the nature and how some people don’t really appreciate or care about it and destroy it or some simply don’t give a bleep about contamination on earth. First of all this movie has epic graphics, the message like I have stated is really inspiring, great action at all times, a little bit of romance, and if you’re a person like me that likes action with weapons and huge gunships fighting scenes you’ll love the last fight when the marines attack the innocent Avatars and there sacred tree where they all or most of them lived.
This scene is where the best graphics are shown ;)

Movie #2:
Title: Tron: Legacy
Starring: Garret Hedlund and Olivia Wilde

Sam Flynn lost his father in one if his own creations in the arcade he had built. He’s trapped in the same world of fierce programs where his father had been living for 20 years. This cyber universe was very advanced and exceedingly dangerous. It was like a videogame “life or death” journey but the only difference was that if you didn’t survive you just couldn’t go back, “re-spawn.”
This movie didn’t truly impact on my life just that it was a great film which I enjoyed and was one of my favorite recent watched movies. This movie when is watched in a theater in 3-D, the graphics were so good that it event looked better than real life. It also has a unique action fighting scene because it very original and with dangerous stunts and the best part was the techno they added each time tense started and this makes it different from all the other movies.


Movie #3:
Title: Cop Out
Starring: Bruce Willis, Tracy Morgan, and Sean William

Tracy Paul and Bruce Jimmy were veteran policeman from New York Police Department (NYPD). Their rare baseball was stolen. Since this was his only hope to pay his daughter upcoming wedding he recruits his partner to track down the thief.
Once you watch the movie you’d think it’s about action only but for those people that like comedy it’s a really good comedy movie which I’ll guarantee that you’ll laugh out loud constantly. It has the funny black and white friends which Paul is the humorous and Jim try’s to do the mature things or is the serious one and makes the quest of their mission so funny.


Movie #4

Title: Date Night
Starring: Tina Tey and Steve Carell



Phil and Claire is a couple that have been married for several years and had a boring relationship and used to do the same things periodically. But then suddenly they find the spare time to have a date night to do something different and go to restaurants and there’s where things start getting amusing.First element that I would say that makes it a movie that everyone should see is that Steve Carell is in it! He’s an excellent comedian (one of my favorites I should say). I used to see him in a couple of shows and movies but where I mostly saw his real skills was in his show called The Office. It’s a great movie overall and a good comedy movie for most of the people.

Movie #5
Title: The Expendables
Starring: Sylvester Stallone, Jason Statham, and Jet Li
This group of guys that go on a mission to kill a brutal dictator. It all ends them trying to save the woman that he had captured. But they kill him at the end and then the entire team shots and go through a camp full of soldiers which are trying to kill them.
This movie has great stunts and constant explosive scenes which will impress you throughout the whole movie. It also has a lot of famous actors and being able to see them all in one movie and fighting together makes the movie even funner to watch.
Just AWESOME!

B.     Movies I Don't Like:

Movie #1:
Title: The Lord of the Rings
Starring: Elijah Wood Viggo

An ancient Ring thought lost for centuries has been found. Through a strange twist in fate has been small Hobbit named Frodo. In ancient times the Rings of Power were crafted by smiths filling in his own power so that he could rule all others.
It’s extremely long! Boring and didn’t make sense the whole concept of the Ring. In some parts I think they copied Harry Potter in concept of the monsters and that I didn’t like on HP as well.

Movie #2:
Title: The Tooth Fairy
Starring: Dwayne Johnson

A hockey player that must serve as a tooth fairy. He is then adapted to his new position and finds out that he forgot about his own dreams and was losing his time.
I’m sorry for Dwayne because they always use him in movies to make fun of him and people laugh at him because of his tough looks when for me personally he’s not funny at all. His audience is just a small amount of adult or teens and the rest is kids under 10 years old. In the movie everything looked so dam stupid that I believe it was a complete rip off.

Movie #3:
Title: One Missed Call
Starring: Shannyn Sossamon, Edward Burns, Ana Claudia Talancon.
People start receiving voice-mails from their future death. Beth Raymond calls the police telling them about the thing that was happening to them but no one believed them but one dective who latter helps the un reveal this mystery.

Awful, absolutely awful. The quick cuts of “scary” images was the only thing that made you… gasp. Each time the creepy music started you could get ready for when the wood should be tense. My friends even laughed while watching some of the “scares”.
