        *cringe* I donā€™t know what to say. Are there any generic answers I can plagiarize?

          when I watched Jungle Book, I picked up on some of the things you mentioned, but what I liked most about it was the whole adoption aspect. It might be only because I have two adopted sisters that I noticed it, but I felt like they did it very well. Adoption is so often stereotyped as either its always rainbows and sunshine, or the complete opposite, that I really enjoyed the mix in this movie

            @Alia yes, now that you mention it, I definitely see that.

                @dragon-snapper I swear I will answer you. What youā€™ve said really sparks some questions of my own. But Iā€™m kind of busy this week (anniversary week of the Bible College)

                    The Avengers is not as great as Inception but it is a must watch if you want to learn how to handle ensembles in your book.

                    I have to askā€¦ What exactly is an ensemble?

                    Alsoā€¦ About my favorite movieā€¦ I have so many that I like, such as Toy Story 2, WALL-E, Despicable Me 1 and 2, The LEGO Movie, Tomorrowland, War Room, Godā€™s Not Dead, and many others that I actually donā€™t have a specific favorite! :/

                    Am I the only one whoā€™s like this??? XD

                      @leumeister Never fear, I am here to assure you that you are NOT the only one like that. No one in my family (least of all, me) can choose our favorite movie either. As long as itā€™s Pixar or Lord of the Rings or Chronicles of Narnia or some Marvel superhero thatā€™s not Ironman, or any Christian movie thatā€™s not cheesy, etcetery and so forth, weā€™re happy.

                      And Iā€™ve just got to ask: is that Axle from Rock Raiders in your profile pic? *hopeful smile*

                        :O

                        You know Rock Raiders???!??!? šŸ˜€ Yes it is! I textured a minifig rig I made as him! šŸ˜€

                        Also, whatā€™s wrong with Iron Man? Or do you just not like the movies?

                          Okay, @Mark-Kamibaya DO NOT BASE YOUR ASSUMPTION OF BEYOND THE MASK OFF OF PENDRAGON. Yes, they are the same company, and I havenā€™t even watched Pendragon, but my brothers have, and they say BtM is WAAAAY better. They improved a LOT and got professional actors (John Rhyss Davies and Andrew Chenney or whoever) Itā€™s a bunch more professional.

                          As concerned with live Disney re-makes, I have not seen Maleficent, I wasnā€™t that much impressed with Jungle Book, and I loved the Cinderella.
                          About Beauty and the Beast. That is my favorite Disney princess movie EVER! Itā€™s the turning point in the attitude-wise meter for them. Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty and Snow White are humble servants happy to stay in their lot even if itā€™s not that great of a life, not whining about how they want something better. They dream about Prince Charmings yes, but come on, what girl doesnā€™t? We canā€™t deny it ladies. Donā€™t try. Well, you can try but it wonā€™t work. Anyways, Belle does want something more to her life than to stay in a nosy little town, but she willingly gives up her future and possibly her life for her father, so he can go free. Thatā€™s pretty sacrificial. After her, most of the princesses, (Ariel (neverseenlittlemermaidthough) Rapunzel, Anna, etc) just sing about how they want to leave and find a handsome man to fall in love with. And that brings me to what someone else pointed out, that Belle fell in love with an ugly monster, and not a heart-throb. Not every girl finds a handsome man to marry, there are average and even ugly people in this world, and this movie shows that you donā€™t have to be handsome to fall in love. Beauty comes from within. So I really hope they donā€™t mess this up with the live action re-make. I am really hyped for it, and from the commercials, it looks like it will be good. And guess who plays Cogsworth?
                          Wellā€¦ that was a rant. And I think I might start another on hereā€¦

                          So, who else has watched the new Peteā€™s Dragon? I watched it Friday with my family, even my five year old sister. I was so pleased with it and I loved it. I wanted to march to Hollywood and shout to everyone ā€œSee! See! You can make an awesome sweet epic touching movie without including immodesty, language, immorality, etc. It can be done people!ā€ Seriously, I loved that movie so much. It might not be on my favorites, but it made me cry, (which isnā€™t hard to do) And touched me a lot.

                            @leumeister *GEEKY SQUEAL* I canā€™t believe you know Rock Raiders too!!! Most people I know donā€™tā€¦ My brother actually has all the vintage lego sets. (Iā€™m not sure if I should call them vintage. It came out when, 1999? You know youā€™re a twenty-first century kid when you call the ā€™90ā€™s vintageā€¦)

                            And Ironmanā€¦ I have a confession to makeā€¦ *scuffs toe guiltily in the dirt* Iā€™ve never actually SEEN his moviesā€¦ But Iā€™ve seen him in the Avengers, and personally, I donā€™t see much in the guy. Iā€™m more a Team Cap person myself.

                            Beauty and the Beast! Justā€¦yes. I watched the trailer yesterday and Iā€™m already soā€¦justā€¦yes.

                              Wow! Rock Raiders is one of my favorite LEGO Themes! I was even thinking of making a movie in Blender of it not too long ago! šŸ˜€

                              Oh, I see. Well, I havenā€™t either, soā€¦ šŸ˜› I just like the hero because of the gadgetry.

                                You know Iā€™m going to hold you to that now, right? šŸ˜‰ Rock Raiders is definitely one of the best lego things ever. Theyā€™ve been getting more and more lame as time goes on untilā€¦Lions vs. Alligators? Really?

                                Ah yes, the gadgetry. Iā€™ve got to admit, thereā€™s no beating that. I just donā€™t like the guy behind the gadgetry, if you catch my meaning. I find it very hard to root for a hero who has no redeeming qualities, principles, or morals. Maybe heā€™s different in his actual movies. I donā€™t know. I just find it hard to believe.

                                  @anne-of-lothlorien
                                  Yes, yes, yes, yes, YES!!!! (and a few more yeses to top it off) I went and saw it in cinema and adored it. I cried buckets and buckets which was embarrassing and couldnā€™t stop crying for half and hour after the movie had ended. I was surprised it was a kids movie but I guess it was cute. Intense at the end though. And *gasp* how could they force a ten year old boy to make a decision like that??? Cruelty to children.

                                  Beauty and the Beastā€¦one of the best. Great story and moral to it. Plus I love the beast. (actually I love him more when heā€™s a beast. Just saying.)

                                  WHAT!?!?!? You didnā€™t like the Jungle Book? Have you seen the animated one? Cause the new one is 100 times better. The story was stronger and it was more sensible than the other one. (I prefer sensible movies) Which is a bit weird because I love comedies. Yeah, Iā€™m weird.

                                  Yes, @mark-kamibaya Donā€™t base Beyond the Mask of Pendragon. (Well unless you like Pendragon. I did) Beyond the Mask has problemsā€¦it was home-made, but it is still impressive. The story is awesome and it has great actors as Anne was saying. Having said that, my brother doesnā€™t like it and he is into movie making a stuff. So I guess each to their own taste. (But if I was you, I wouldnā€™t listen to what people say, just try it for yourself) Have you seen the trailer? Maybe that will help you to decide???
