Jerry's Movie Picks For Downloading

By poor augustepiccard

I have made a short list of the more popular movies put up on the big screen in 2008. This list consists of the movies I enjoyed watching this year. Hopefully you will see a couple of movies that are worth watching.

TWENTY ONE: Twenty One basically recounts an amazing true story of young college kids who formed a team of blackjack players that beat the casinos. This team of blackjack players prepared and then enacted a ruthless attack on the tables. To be successfull in Las Vegas, where card counting can get you banned, they had to change casinos often, and disguise themselves, so the wouldn't get caught. This movie is based on the best selling book that tells how the M.I.T. teams made millions playing blackjack.

10,000 B.C.: This movie will take you back to prehistoric times. When a warlike tribe invade the Yaghai tribe, they kidnap the beautiful Evolet. A young hunter named D'Leh, who deeply cares for Evolet, organizes a band of hunters to chase down these warmongers, and save her, and the rest of the captured tribe members.

WANTED: Wesley, an office worker going nowhere in life, learns that his long lost father is a professional killer. His father has been murdered, now Wesley is asked to join into the group of assasins that his dead father was involved with. He is asked to become the professional killer that that he was destined to become. From that point on, this movie gets very complex and twisted. Enjoy this roller coaster ride.

WALL-E: This film is an animated, comedy, adventure, sci-fi. Earth has been left behind, an uninhabitale wasteland. Wall-E, a robot built to remove trash, has been left behind to clean up the mess. When a recon bot (Eve) appears, checking for any signs of life, Wall-E is finally not alone. When the spaceship returns for Eve, Wall-E sneaks aboard, and starts an incredible adventure.

BOLT: Bolt is a fun animation. The star is dog actor Bolt, who in his role on television, has super hero dog powers. The thing about Bolt is that he really thinks he has these powers. After he is unexpectedly put into a real life situation, he realizes that he is just a dog. On a journey to get back home, he finds help, in the form of Rhino and Mittens, his newly found hampster and cat friends.

WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS: Wild and crazy nights in Las Vegas are normal. Young partiers Joy and Jack get up the next day and find out that they are married. When they win a $3 million jackpot, each thinks they deserve the prize, so they ask a judge for a decision. The judge decides that for the next few months they must stay together, and try to make their marriage work. With $3 million on the line, they each try to get the other to give up, as both desire to wind up with all the money.

THE CHRONICALS OF NARNIA, PRINCE CASPIAN: It is one year later, in there "regular" lives, when Edmund, Peter, Susan, and Lucy are mysteriously pulled back into Narnia. Running for his life, Prince Caspian has blown the magin horn, in a desparate plea for help. In Narnia, 1,300 years have passed since they were Kings and Queens, but they have been called back to save Narnia from the evil Telmarines. With the help of the the bravest in the forrest, including, a dwarf, the centaurs, and a very skilled mouse, they will fight for the future of Narnia.

Jumper: While almost drowning, David Rice (Hayden Christensen) learns he has an unbelievable ability. He has the ability to actually teleport himself to any place he wants to go, at any time. Eventually, he discovers that he is not alone in having this capability. After years of "jumping" around the planet, he is exposed to hunters that think jumpers are a threat, and need to be eliminated. He must fight for his life, as these paladins try to track him down.

THE DARK KNIGHT: In this film Batman, and law enforcement officials, are on a mission to clean up Gotham City. Things are going very well, until a new criminal mastermind shows up, and attacks the city. Now, Batman really has his hands full, as the Joker is dispensing his criminal plots on the big city.

Many people will buy these movies, so they can see them in the comfort of their living rooms. A more recent method for getting films is by using down loading technologies from the internet. There are websites that with a membership, you can download virtually any movie ever made. - 17943
