Beowulf (2007) Trailer #1 | Movieclips Classic Trailers
Beowulf

What is it about?

This is how The IMDb describes this movie:

Set against the coming of Christianity, this is the story of the last hero: in 507, a monstrous troll wreaks havoc in the mead hall of Danish King Hrothgar (Sir Anthony Hopkins).

He offers rewards for the death of Grendel (Crispin Glover), so Beowulf (Ray Winstone), a great and boastful Geat warrior, arrives with his thanes.

Beowulf sets aside his armor and awaits the monster.

A fierce battle ensues that leads to Beowolf’s entering the watery lair of Grendel’s Mother (Angelina Jolie), where a devil’s bargain awaits.

Beowulf returns to Herot, the castle, and becomes King.

Jump ahead many years, and the sins of the father are visited upon Beowulf and his kingdom.

The hero must face his weakness and be heroic once again.

Is the age of demons over?

Ghost In The Shell 2: Innocence Trailers

Source: YouTube

Here are some trailers for the 2004 anime (animated) computer-animated cyberpunk movie Ghost In The Shell 2: Innocence that I saw several years ago:

This anime (animated) movie is the strangest, most surreal, most artsy, and possibly most philosophical Ghost In The Shell movie so far; and the mind games are strong with this one.

The Incredibles

Source: IMDb

What is it?

The 2004 American computer-animated superhero movie The Incredibles.

What is it about?

This is how Rotten Tomatoes describes this animated movie:

Once one of the world’s top masked crime fighters, Bob Parr–known to all as “Mr. Incredible”–fought evil and saved lives on a daily basis.

But now fifteen years later, Bob and his wife–a famous superhero in her own right–have adopted civilian identities and retreated to the suburbs to live normal lives with their three kids.

Now he’s a clock-punching insurance claims adjuster fighting boredom and a bulging waistline.

Itching to get back into action, Bob gets his chance when a mysterious communication summons him to a remote island for a top-secret assignment.

What do I like about it and what would other people like about it?

I like some of the CGI that still holds up today, the character Edna Mode, and how this animated movie is better than some superhero movies even until this day; and I think that other people will like that as well.

Final Thoughts

This was my first time ever watching this movie thanks to my brother GC, I have heard people talk about it over the years, but I had never seen it before until now.

The end,
