<title>Say Yes to Yes Man</title>
<link>http://www.cinemaroll.com/Comedy/Say-Yes-to-Yes-Man.440328</link>
<description>
<![CDATA[<p>Because I had nothing to do last night, I asked a few friends if they wanted to go do something.&amp;nbsp; While most ignored me, I did manage to get over the theatre, and see the movie yes man.&amp;nbsp; I just want to share that it was well worth the money, and I will highly recommend it.</p>
<p>For those of you that have seen the previews you pretty much know the basis of this movie.&amp;nbsp; There is this guy Carl (Carey) that doesn't want to commit to anything.&amp;nbsp; He's afraid that&amp;nbsp;once he says yes to something he will get too emotionally attached to it, and it will leave his life forever.&amp;nbsp;</p>
<p>He meets an old friend, who tells him to go to a motivational speaker that helps people with whatever is going on.&amp;nbsp; Basically Carl gets stuck with a "convenient" that says he must say yes to everything or he breaks a promise to himself, which is a very bad thing.</p>
<p>He leaves the convention debating whether to do it or not, but when a homeless man asks for a ride to the park he gives him one.&amp;nbsp; The man uses up his phones battery, then carl runs out of gas, and is force to walk all the way do the hill where he runs into a girl that he later asks out.</p>
<p>I won't go any farther than that, for you need to see the rest yourself.&amp;nbsp; When I saw that Jim Carey was acting in my 1st reaction was "I'd rather not."&amp;nbsp; The reason for this, was that Ace Ventura made me look at him as a complete idiot, though I will say that after see this, I've changed my mind.&amp;nbsp; He is a very good comedian, and I plan on going to see this movie at least one more time.</p>
<p>This movie is not for young kids.&amp;nbsp; There is a lot of humor that I would consider questionable, however, I think as long as you don't get offend easily its well worth your money.&amp;nbsp; There is a bit of nudity, and the language is bad at times.&amp;nbsp; For storyline, humor, and worth your money I give this a 5/5.&amp;nbsp; Go see it.</p><a href="http://www.pheedo.com/click.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cinemaroll.com%2FComedy%2FSay-Yes-to-Yes-Man.440328"><img src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cinemaroll.com%2FComedy%2FSay-Yes-to-Yes-Man.440328" border="0"/></a>]]></description>

<title>Favorite Family Movies</title>
<link>http://www.cinemaroll.com/Family/Favorite-Family-Movies.214045</link>
<description>
<![CDATA[<p>My family loves to watch movies together at home. We watch all varieties: kids, comedies, suspense, horror, and even some documentaries. I usually do not like to rewatch movies over and over, but these have been an exception.</p>
<ul>
<li>
<h3>Game Plan</h3>
</li>
<p>This movie is about a famous football player that learns he is a father of&amp;nbsp;young girl. Finding out that he was a father was a complete shock and it turned his life inside out.&amp;nbsp; Everytime I watch this movie I am brought to tears and laughter numerous times. It portrays the importance of a loving bond between parents and children.</p>
<li>
<h3>Facing the Giants</h3>
</li>
<p>In this movie a highschool football coach has been struggling on the field with a losing season again. Everything beging to go on a downhill spiral. His teams' parents are not satisfied, his team has no confidence in themselves, car troubles, and he is even having difficulty fulfilling his wife's dream of creating a family. However, instead of giving up and being defeated, he turned to GOD. This is an amazing movie to watch and witness the power of GOD's love.</p>
<li>
<h3>Click</h3>
</li>
<p>Just like many parents today, we sometimes get caught up with work so much that we take our families for granted. Adam Sandler plays the part of a father who's trying to get ahead in the business world that he loses&amp;nbsp;sense of the role that a father and husband should maintain in a family unit.&amp;nbsp; Magically, he found a remote control that could fast forward undesirable or stressful situations in his life. This movie is not only funny but also a tear jerker, atleast for me. It reminds us that family time is valuable and should NEVER be taken for granted.</p>
</ul>
<p>So if you are looking for an excellent family movie to enjoy together, please consider one of these. I promise you won't forget it.</p><a href="http://www.pheedo.com/click.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cinemaroll.com%2FFamily%2FFavorite-Family-Movies.214045"><img src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cinemaroll.com%2FFamily%2FFavorite-Family-Movies.214045" border="0"/></a>]]></description>

<title>The Tailes of Abbygail Premier in Portland, Oregon</title>
<link>http://www.cinemaroll.com/Family/The-Tailes-of-Abbygail-Premier-in-Portland-Oregon.154633</link>
<description>
<![CDATA[<p><a href="http://oregon.today.com/files/2008/06/100_0603.JPG" target="_blank"></a> Bright and early on the morning of the 21st, 400 children and their families were invited to the World Premier of "The Tails of Abbygail". Two stretched limousines were sent to the Children's Hospital to pick up handicapped children for the event. Everyone arrived to walk the red carpet in amazement as they entered the Sandy Cinema.  It was a beautiful day to have a Hollywood caliber movie premier in Sandy, Oregon.</p>
<p>All of the children attending got tiaras or pirate eye patches, sparkling apple cider in fancy decorated champagne flutes, cotton candy, and fresh buttered popcorn.  Everyone waited in anticipation for the stars of the show to make their appearance. Excitement mounted as the guests were served fabulous treats while they waited.  Suddenly, little girls and boys exploded with excitement as the stars of the movie arrived in their very own Hummer decked out in Abbygail decor. One-by-one, they made their way down the red carpet, stopping to greet and get a pet by everyone along the way.</p>
<p>Excitedly, guests filed into the theater to watch &amp;ldquo;The Tails of Abbygail&amp;rdquo;.  Before the show, Terri Lynn and Al Link, the creators of &amp;ldquo;The Tails of Abbygail&amp;rdquo;, along with &amp;ldquo;friends of the cast&amp;rdquo; greeted the crowd again, and spoke about how important this film is to children everywhere.</p>
<p>Suddenly, the lights went out, and the show began, and that's where we met Abbygail, a curious Jack Russell Terrier who wishes her toy friends would come to life and play with her.  We watched as they did, and went on a grand adventure filled with fun, life lessons, and even buried treasure.  The first of its series, &amp;ldquo;The Tails of Abbygail&amp;rdquo; was fun and lighthearted with serious undertones encouraging things like water safety and stranger danger.</p>
<p>After the show, guests were invited to a private tea party where the magic kept on going.  Each child was given a gift bag as they left the theater that was filled with treats, a &amp;ldquo;paw-ta-graphed&amp;rdquo; poster, and even a copy of the DVD!</p>
<p>Terri Lynn Link, a successful Oregon business owner, was sitting around her pool one day when she noticed her dogs playing in the sunshine.  They were making people smile. Suddenly, she had an idea, and "The Tails of Abbygail" was born. It has been endorsed and approved by KIDS FIRST- The Coalition for Quality Children's Media, was the official selection of KIDS FIRST! Film Festival, the largest festival for children's films, in 2008, and won a Bronze Statue in the 29th Annual Telly Awards.</p>
<p>I had a chance to meet up with Terry Lynn after the show to have her autograph our DVD's and posters, and I have to say, she has created something special!!

<title>The Lion, the Witch, and the Wardrobe: An Analysis</title>
<link>http://www.cinemaroll.com/Fantasy/The-Lion-the-Witch-and-the-Wardrobe-An-Analysis.83118</link>
<description>
<![CDATA[<p>The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe is a motion picture that represents and demonstrates the elements of drama, such as mood and symbols, place and time, and focus. In particular, one scene from this movie is selected to be analyzed, in regards to the elements. The movie is directed by Andrew Adamson who has worked in the visual effects and animation industry for movies such as Batman Forever and Batman and Robin. Adamson's debut in the directing division was in the year 2001, for the animated sensation Shrek.</p>
 
<p>The element of mood and symbols displayed in The Chronicles of Narnia adds to the plot and action of the movie. The scene begins and the blue sky filled with clouds, provides the perfect setting and suspenseful mood together with the howling of wolves and sad, haunting music. In this very moment, the viewer is still unsure of what will happen, but has a clue that something has to happen. Edmund steps over the wolf statue and he is caught unawares. The statue turns out to be a real wolf and he soon realizes this along with the viewers. Edmund enters the castle leaded by Maugrim (a wolf), who is the Head of the Secret Police, and not long after, the Witch catches him by surprise as he sits in her throne. She gets angry, when she discovers that Edmund did not do what he was told to do and her voice changes from calm and soothing, to booming and frightful. Symbols in this scene include the crown that the White Witch wears, representing power: winter setting, which is the result of the Witch's ruling over Narnia and Edmund sitting in the throne, as his future role as a king of Narnia.</p>
 
<p>Place and time is not as clearly defined in the specific scene, as the other elements of drama. The setting for this movie is Narnia is a mystical, enchanted place ruled by Aslan, a courageous and kind-hearted lion. In this amazing place, animals can talk and there are fauns and other half-human half-creature inhabitants roaming about. Narnia is filled with snow and icecaps, because ever since the Witch began her reign, there was no other season, but winter. Edmund enters the Witch's palace and he is greeted by an entirely different array of colors and textures. In front of him is the Witch's throne, which looks and feels like velvet. The castle has high ceilings and is adorned with statues of creatures the Witch froze.</p>
 
<p>In the scene, the focus is mainly on important characters/ surroundings in Narnia. When Edmund is approaching the castle and Maugrim attacks him, near the entrance, the camera is drawn to the sudden tension between him and Edmund. When the wolf leaves Edmund alone, as Edmund walks up the stairs leading to the entrance of the castle, the focus is on the castle itself, and this is because the castle plays an important role in the story. The statues placed near, are also in focus, and this is because they prove just how powerful and merciless the Witch is. Edmund finally enters the castle and he is drawn to the throne as if it is of importance. Later in the scene, when the Witch yells at Edmund, the camera is drawn to the Witch's face. The focus plays a very important part in this scene as it helps the audience understand what is happening and adds to the suspension.</p>
 
<p>The elements of drama are successfully represented and demonstrated in this scene, and in the whole movie. The Chronicles of Narnia- The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, is an imaginative and unique movie that involves the audience in the story and puts the viewer on the edge of their seat, in every moment.</p><a href="http://www.pheedo.com/click.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cinemaroll.com%2FFantasy%2FThe-Lion-the-Witch-and-the-Wardrobe-An-Analysis.83118"><img src="http://www.pheedo.com/img.phdo?x=&u=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.cinemaroll.com%2FFantasy%2FThe-Lion-the-Witch-and-the-Wardrobe-An-Analysis.83118" border="0"/></a>]]></description>
