Saturday, December 4, 2010 Narnia and the Voyage of the Dawn Treader 3D Posted by admin at 8:47 PM

Eustace... the new kid on the record.... entering the magical and secret world of Narnia. 

Yes, finally Narnia has release its newest movie on theater entitled Narnia and the Voyage of the Dawn Treader. It tells about the adventure of the the boat named Dawn Treader, well it's the best boat ever built in Narnia according to the book written of course by CS Lewis. She's a very good writer that all you will experience reading her book is that your fantasies will gradually be in real life...really amazing book. Oh well, thanks to my exceptional someone that I have the chance reading this book on an e-book...It's my first ever actually reading the chronicles of Narnia.

Here's my own version of the summary or shall I say about the story itself...Eustace is their cousins, he's a bully kind of a kid, just imagine how mean he is and some sort of a harsh kid needs to be understood. Then the entrance to the Narnia this time is the picture on the wall, a picture of The Dawn Treader that came to life. The image on the wall turns real... water splashing... their room filled with ocean's water and suddenly they were in Narnia.... they meet Prince Caspian, Reepicheep, and others inside the boat.... By the way, Edmund and Lucy were present in this story together with Eustacae, their cousin. Edmund and Lucy then found out that Prince Caspian will have his promised expedition to search his Uncle's seven Lords namely Revilian, Bern, Argoz, Mavramorn, Octesian, Restimar and Rhoop.

In their adventure they will landed in places like The Lone Islands, Dragon Island, Burnt Island, Deathwater Island, Island of the Dufflepuds, The Dark Island, and Ramandu's Island. The travel will be much exciting if seen on the movie so watch Narnia and make your fantasy turn into reality.

However, Reepicheep was excited about something else entirely. The water was fresh. Reepicheep repeats an old rhyme he heard while in his cradle about the waves growing sweet at the utter east. All members of the ships company drink the water, which gives them more tolerance for the increasing intensity of the sunlight. It also makes them less desiring of food or sleep.

It's actually the mission of Reepicheep to find the fresh water and then All of them found the Aslan's country. The last is when the three approach the sheep and ask how to get to Aslan's country. The sheep replies that the way to Aslan's country is through their own world. The form of the sheep changes and before them stands Aslan. Aslan tells the children that He will be telling them all of the time how to get to His country but for now they would have to go back to Earth. Lucy asks when they will be allowed to return to Narnia and, to their disappointment, He tells them that they (Lucy and Edmund) will never come back for they are getting too old. Lucy asks if Eustace will be returning, to which Aslan replies that it is not hers to know. Aslan opens a window in the sky and returns the children to the very room from which they came.

Sunday, November 14, 2010 Bye Harry Potter! Posted by admin at 12:24 AM

A sad title... nearing the doom of Harry's life. Yes, it is sad to hear that Harry Potter will end partly this year... I  am once a devotee to this World Phenomenal book series of the creator - JK Rowling. I started loving this movie since I'm in grade 6 (yeah, that was 8 years ago...) and just imagine how young Daniel Radcliffe back then and me too (lol). And until such time that every year it's a must awaited movie - part 2, 3, and so on....

I just can't imagine how devoted also the staff of the Movie since it's first hit in the cinema... doing and making it the BEST Movie throughout the years...and even counting...say this year it is considered for Harry's fans all over the humankind as the "Wizarding World 2010". Whoa! And can you imagine how many supporters Harry and his team has, it is really out-of-the-ordinary thing.

Oh my, this can be poignant for some and can also be a happy ending for some that Harry Potter will gonna have a farewell movie this year. I know that everyone is very much excited to witness the Finale, yeah, who do you think will Harry's heart will be forever attached with? Hermione or Ginny? Hmmm? Beyond that, it's definitely a breath-taking movie as ever! From its visual effects of the Magical World of Wizardry and Witchcraft to the best actors and actresses - it's really a BRAVO!!! I SALUTE TO THE CREATOR AND THE PEOPLE BEYOND  HP SERIES. ;-) 

However, it all ends here.

WATCH Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows (Part I) 2010  on November 19 USA Premier.
