The headline of the article is Hunger Games: Catching Fire trailer released which was published on  http://www.guardian.co.uk  by Ben Child on April 15, 2013. The article deals with the second part за Suzanne Collin's trilogy.

Firstly, the author notes that The Hunger Games was dubbed "the new Twilight" prior to the arrival of Gary Ross's debut instalment on the big screen last year. Yet the film's slick depiction of a post-apocalyptic society in which the "dandyish" 1% thrill to the bloodthirsty televised battles of a group selected from the downtrodden general populace made for surprisingly enticing material.

Secondly, Ben Child  points out that now the first full trailer for sequel Catching Fire has been released, debuting last night at the MTV Movie awards, with recent Oscar-winner Jennifer Lawrence once again front and centre as Katniss Everdeen. Having survived the deadly arena and really narked off the powers that be in the first movie, our heroine now finds herself preparing to be paraded round the various districts of Panem while the mean old Capitol bods work out what on earth to do with her

Thirdly, the author underlines that Suzanne Collins's 2009 sequel novel spent far too many pages justifying its own existence, so fingers crossed Francis Lawrence's film will avoid making the same mistake and put Everdeen back where the action is as soon as possible. The trailer nicely teases the decision by chief bad guy President Snow (Donald Sutherland) and new sidekick Plutarch Heavensbee (Philip Seymour Hoffman) to introduce a special supergames – named the "quarter quell" – in which victors from the past 25 years or so compete again in an ultra-nasty, extra-vicious new arena until the last one is standing.

To crown it all, Ben Child stresses that producers have already moved to split the final instalment, Mockingjay, into two parts.

Hurray! Soon we'll go to the cinema and watch the continuation of this awsome story! Though I like the book more than the film, I can't wait to see it.

The headline of the article is Monsters University Makes The Grade With Its CinemaCon Debut which was published on  http://www.cinemablend.com  by Eric Eisenberg on April 17, 2013. The article deals with a prequel to Monsters Inc.

Firstly, the author notes that after more than a decade of extraordinary success, putting out better animated films and creating better stories than just about anybody in the industry, Pixar has somewhat faltered in recent years. Cars 2 failed to live up to standards and expectations, and while Brave had greatness within it, it also lacked the certain creative spark that the studio has become renowned for. With Monsters University, however, Pixar seems to be back on track, returning to the world of one of their greatest titles and crafting a funny, clever story worthy of the brand.

Secondly, Eric Eisenberg points out that the Walt Disney Company held their presentation at CinemaCon – the annual event held in Las Vegas where studios show off footage for all their biggest upcoming films – and after outlining their slate through 2015 and showing off two extended scenes from Gore Verbinski’s The Lone Ranger, they treated the audience to an impressive surprise: a screening Monsters University in its entirety.

Thirdly, the author underlines that the new film follows Mike Wazowski (Billy Crystal) and James “Sully” Sullivan (John Goodman) before they became best friends, both enrolled in the esteemed scaring program at the titular Monsters University. While Mike isn’t a natural born scarer, he makes up for his lacking by being incredibly hard-working and book smart – a contrast to Sully, who tries to skate by on his large, monstrous appearance and family’s legacy. Their personalities clash in a bad way, and the two end up in strict competition with each other.

To crown it all, Nick Venable tells the reader that what was presented was very impressive. Most prequels suffer from the fact that the audience already knows where the characters will end up and where the plot is going, but it’s actually fascinating to see Mike and Sully evolve into the adult monsters that we first met 12 years ago. The film borrows liberally from the established college comedy genre.

I was very surprised when I found this article, as we read the story about Walter Mitty last term. So, I'm waiting for the film adaptation.

So, I'm waiting for June 21st because I really love this cartoon!

The headline of the article is , Ben Stiller Looks Dazed And Confused In First Secret Life Of Walter Mitty Image which was published on  http://www.cinemablend.com  by Nick Venable  on April 15, 2013. The article deals with Ben Stiller's part of Walter Mitty.

Firstly, the author notes that when Ben Stiller was set to take on the role, it caused both excitement, given Stiller’s gifts with physical comedy, and trepidation, given Stiller’s gifts of being in severely unfunny movies occasionally.

Secondly. Nick Venable points out that  as we can see from the first official photo from The Secret Life of Walter Mitty, courtesy of The Los Angeles Times, Stiller isn’t stepping outside his physical appearance comfort zone for this one. He’s standing out in the middle of a barren nowhere by the looks of it, wearing beat up jeans and holding a bag and skateboard.

Thirdly, the author underlines that Walter Mitty is looking to be one of 2013’s more interesting year-ending comedies. Stiller stars as a LIFE Magazine proofreader whose real-world nebbishness is flipped around in his mental fantasy life, which involves him searching for a missing image taken by a photographer played by Sean Penn. The film also stars Kristen Wiig, Patton Oswalt, Adam Scott, and Kathryn Hahn. So even if it isn’t the funniest, it’s got some of the funniest people in it.

To crown it all, Nick Venable tell the reader that viewers can unwrap Mitty’s secret when the film releases on Christmas Day 2013.
