Useless Toys Become Alive Again






   Toy Story, the movie that made children to stare to the poster everytime they walk pass, just released last month which made lots of money. This year Woody and his toy friends needed to move to the other place because Andy, their owner, leaved for entering to the college. They thought they would be abandoned. The reason why I choose this article because Toy Story 3 is a movie sequel that successful. It relates to my term paper because it shows how budget did they made.
     Toy Story 3 made so much money if you compare to the other parts. In fact, Toy Story 3 crowded Shrek 2 to be the top of animated movie. Moreover, Toy Story 3 is the first animated movie that made one billion US Dollar, and they won many trophies. Rich Ross, Walt Disney Studios Chairman, said he is pleasure: "… These box office triumphs prove that creative storytelling brought to life by imaginative, inspired and talented professionals is something audiences respond to the world over."(2010, n.d.).
     To summarize, Toy Story 3 had amazingly made 1 billion US Dollar. Perhaps, Toy Story 3 would be the best animated movie in this decade. Personally, I think Toy Story 3 had successful because they use the characters that approach to the people which make people to imagine like the movie. It can be shown that when you make a film, you need to care about tiny significant details which make the movie more effective. Click here to see an original news.

The Exciting Battle Between Pot and Mort




       Harry Potter is the most famous of British series movie. The total of budget of all parts of Harry Potter, excluding Harry Potter and The Deathly Hallows, is 5,418 million US Dollar. The story followed the orphan that sent to the wizarding school named Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry which teaches many magics. The movie combines with teenage loving. However, this article is going to tell about this part of Harry Potter would divide in two section. It relates to my term paper because dividing into two groups is one of the strategies of making a movie. Moreover, I choose this article because this part is the last part of Harry Potter, the famous series movies, so it is quite interesting about ending.
       Harry Potter and The Deathly Hollows has divided into two parts. It is because The details was too much to fill into one film. A specialist said that it is a great idea that they divided Harry Potter and The Deathly Hollows into a different part because the big fighting between Harry Potter, starred by Daniel Radcliffe, and Lord Voldemort, starred by Ralph Fiennes, needs to be prepared well. J.K. Rowling, an author, said “It is simply impossible to incorporate every storyline into a film under four hours long.”. In fact, fans of the novel have complained the movie previously because the details were not enough. The another shock news is that part one of Harry Potter and The Deathly Hollows will not light up in 3D because of running out of time but too fast to be sad because part two of Harry Potter and The Deathly Hollows will convert into 3D screen on next summer!
       All in all, Harry Potter and The Deathly Hollows will be divided into two parts which release the year after. I leant managing details of the movie suitably. In my opinion, I think dividing into two parts is brilliant. It is because if I am a big fan, I will be excited a lot and look forward to part two. Click here to see the original article.

Firstly, it relates to my topic because this movie has raised by people in other countries which mean that this movie is successful. The reason why I choose these articles is that I predict that this movie will hit and beat other movies such as Paranormal Activity 2.
      This movie followed the woman who had everything she wanted such as a husband, a house and a nice job. However, she felt she needed something that she really wanted. The interesting point of this film is traveling. She travelled to find the meaning and the real of eating, praying and loving. Eat Pray Love shows another point of world that you never touch. Gilbert appreciated that Julia starred as her . According to Elizabeth G., "… I think it's amazing. It's spectacular. It's an honor. She's a national treasure. You know, I went to see 'Pretty Woman' on a date. Like everyone in the country, I grew up with the contours of her face and with her emotions. I feel an intimacy to her and a connection with her”.
       To sum up, Eat Pray Love is a successful film because of many factors such as a plot, a character and travelling. As for me, the story quite suits to adults, but I do love it. That is because this film shows the meaning of life, and the ways to be happy. After I watch this movie, I will google to find the feed back of Thai people.
