My story.

A story about a 15 year old girl, in Soviet Union in 1942. 
She is one of the brightest students in school, very patriotic. 
The terror in her country lasts for about 10 years now, and all the nation blindly
follows the communist, sick ambitions of Stalin. Her best friend is arrested by Cheka one day,
on her eyes, with unknown reason. That's the day when she realises what really happens.
She started to loose faith in her country, and her beliefs became a lie. 
Her grades went down. Few days later she stood up to her history teacher, which
got her arrested and send to the special school in Stalingrad. 
After a few months, she overhears her teachers listening to the radio, which said
that the Wehrmacht is coming. 
Everyone in school seems to be excited, and she can hear people talking on the cordial 
about smashing german army. However Maja knows how incredible and ruthless the german army is.
When the evacuation of the teachers happens, most of the students are left behind, 
as there was "no place". 
Few days later on the 14th of July, the Battle of Stalingrad happens. 
Hiding in her room, she can hears the shots and screams of students from her school.
Everyone had to die - the germans had no mercy. Finally they opened the door,
and she heard the footsteps of a soldier. He saw her, he was alone. They were staring at each other
for few seconds, when someone called something in german, which meant "anyone there?", the soldier, holding the gun in his hands said "nein" informing that they should move forward, but he'll look again through the room. He try to tell her that she has to get away from the city.
He decided to help her, giving her the german uniform. He introduces her to the soldiers as a german student. After some time, He explains her that she reminds him of his sister, which died in germany on the crystal night few years ago. He told her his secret, that he was a german Jew, who by luck got into the Hitler's School in Berlin. In time they both fall in love.


After their feelings developed fully, the boy dieds in the battle. The girl, who was introduced as a boy, gets send by the soldiers "back" to germany, to the HitlerJudgen school, where she becomes with a plan to kill the furher. She builds up a bomb in secret, and she becomes a Russian spy, not for her country to gain honour, but to end the war. Hitler visits the school, and during the dinner she brought a bomb in her bag, and she tried to sit next to furher as close as she could. The bomb exploded, killing her and other men, however Hitler lived, he came out of the explosion with a broken arm. The war continued.

Heros.



GLADIATOR
His armour and weapons make him look like a general. From the scenes that we saw, 
we can tell that he is very powerful, strong, and he is a good leader. Standing up to 
people more important then him shows that he is unbreakable and has no fear.

choose a hero ; s p i d e r m a n .
The hero needs to be intelligent and quick thinker in order to solve problems.

We can see that Peter Parker is a very intelligent and quick thinking person in many scenes in the movie. He is usually all alone with his problems, while fighting characters stronger and bigger then him. There isn't a lot of time to think, however everything seems to getting to him fast - while we are sitting in front of the television, wondering what on Earth is happening, missing heart beats he fights for his live, using anything he can find, racing his possibilities. 
One of the examples, is the scene in the first movie, when the enemy imprisoned about 25 little children crying and screaming for help, which were hanging above the precipice, on the same time, on the other side it was Peter's love who was hanging. He had about few seconds to decide who to rescue. The enemy let go of the lines in one moment. Most of us, probably all, would have no idea what to do - me for example, would stand in place with open mouth not being able to move my body at all. 
In these two seconds, he jumped to rescue his girlfriend, quickly turning around, catching the line of the couch with little children.

007 Casino Royale & Action Adventure

0 0 7  C A S I N O  R O Y A L E .
  •  Men – fighting, weapons, attractive women, money.
  •  Women – attractive men, romance.
  •   Teens – idols.
  •   Adults – romance, action.
  •   British Viewers – James Bond, women has a British accent.
  •   American Viewers - expensive cars, filmed in their country.
I think that the producers tried to make it appeal to most of the people, however it is most likely for British, teenage boys to watch this movie as some of the age/sex groups were more successful then the others as the audience. The least interested would be American women, as there isn't anything interesting for these who don't really like fights or action. 
The statistics show that the movie was more a success in Britain, then America, which is supported by the reason that James Bond is a classic of British cinema.

Which of the posters fit the most to the Action & Adventure genre?
The first one - The Pirates of the Caribbean, because the ship tells us they are travelling, 
and they have adventures. Jack Sparrow is also holding two machetes, which mean there is a lot of action - fighting etc. The title "Pirates of.." is also successful for this genre because we know that the pirates were travelling around the World, fighting. That's what Pirates do. 

The Gladiator one isn't as successful, because it's very blank and we wouldn't know what is the movie about, if we didn't seen it first. There is a man, standing, with an orange sky behind him. It doesn't really tells us about neither Adventure or Action. 

The Avatar show us on the poster another World, different creatures and things we never saw before. It fantasy and adventure, however it's hard to see any action in it. 

why are the action & adventure films are so popular with the audiences ?
- violences.
- guns, fighting.
- usually some romance.
- travelling.
- filmed in lots of different places.
All of it together gets out attention. 

Why does some people criticise the Action & Adventure films?
- there is always lots of people killed.
- violent or cruel
- low quality scripts. 
- they are simple.

have to think of
- title
- movie that inspired you
- plot
- age certificate
- characters
