I did not see a lot of Koera movies,but this one really impress me.It tells the story of a man's chance meeting with a drunk girl on the train which changes his life. It is ostensibly based on a true story.The film was extremely successful in South Korea . When My Sassy Girl was released throughout East Asia, it became a mega blockbuster hit in the entire region, from China, Hong Kong, as well as Southeast Asia, to the point where it was drawing comparisons to Titanic.
The Korean song entitled "I Believe" by Shin Seung Hun (신승훈) is the theme song of this film.As far as i know,the theme song I BELIEVE was wide spreaded.It was translated to many kinds of language.Here is the link to this MTV.
My Sassy Girl was the second highest selling film in 2001 (behind the film Friend) and was the highest grossing Korean comedy film of all time. Jeon Ji-hyun was praised by portrayal of the character calling her the "undisputed star" and stating "it could not have succeeded anywhere near as well without her".
Alice in Wonderland wouldn't be complete without a soundtrack that's just as imaginative as the film, which is where 'Almost Alice' comes in. The unique 16-track compilation CD is comprised of songs written by your favorite artists and inspired by the new 3D Disney film. Almost Alice features songs by Metro Station, Owl City, 3OH3! and All Time Low, just to name a few. Many of the songs were written specifically for the movie, while others fit in perfectly with the album's theme. The CD also includes Avril Lavigne's haunting single, 'Alice,' which plays during the end credits of the film. (She just shot an amazing video for it, too.)HAHA~ Just enjoy it!
Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince is the sixth and penultimate novel in the Harry Potter series by British author J. K. Rowling. Set during protagonist Harry Potter's sixth year at Hogwarts, the novel explores the past of Harry's nemesis, Lord Voldemort, and Harry's preparations for the final battle alongside his headmaster and mentor Albus Dumbledore. The book was published in the United Kingdom by Bloomsbury and in the United States by Scholastic on 16 July 2005, as well as in several other countries. It sold nine million copies in the first 24 hours after its release, a record at the time which was eventually broken by its sequel, Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows. There were many controversies before and after it was published, including the right to read the copies delivered prior to the release date in Canada. Reception to the novel was generally positive and it won several awards and honours, including the 2006 British Book of the Year award. Reviewers noted the book took on a darker tone than its predecessors, though it did contain humour. Some considered the main themes to be love and death, and trust and redemption. The character development of Harry and several other teenage characters was also remarked upon.
The series received negative reviews, based on Metacritic's overall index, which placed the series at 37 out of 100.
The Hollywood Reporter's Tim Goodman noted that the actors are just saddled in this sitcom world of limited potential, adding "How long can they play this joke?" and concluded that "Isn’t it really time to let go of stereotypes and clichés and maybe write a sitcom that has more to joke about than one thing over and over again?" JAM! gave the series a "Thumbs Down," noting that "...if you're pining for the next great male sitcom, this isn't it." Variety's Brian Lowry noted that "...it'll take more than sociology to pump up this stale sitcom." The Oregonian's Kristi Turnquist called the show "Unfunny" in her short review. Sexy or Sexism Campaign users gave the show a failing grade, saying that it fails on all levels of gender equity, is potentially harmful and should be pulled off the air immediately.
The Lion King is a 1994 American animated film produced by Walt Disney Feature Animation and released by Walt Disney Pictures. It is the 32nd feature in the Walt Disney Animated Classics series. The story takes place in a kingdom of anthropomorphic lions in Africa,[4] and was influenced by the Bible tales of Joseph and Moses, the Epic of Sundiata, and the William Shakespeare play Hamlet. The film was produced during a period known as the Disney Renaissance. The Lion King was directed by Roger Allers and Rob Minkoff, written by Irene Mecchi, Jonathan Roberts and Linda Woolverton, produced by Don Hahn, and stars Matthew Broderick, Jeremy Irons, James Earl Jones, Jonathan Taylor Thomas, Moira Kelly, Nathan Lane, Ernie Sabella, Rowan Atkinson, Robert Guillaume, Madge Sinclair, Whoopi Goldberg, Cheech Marin and Jim Cummings. It tells the story of Simba, a young lion who is to take his father Mufasa's place as king. However, after Simba's uncle Scar kills Mufasa, he must stop his uncle from conquering the Pride Lands and avenge his father.
Development of The Lion King began in 1988 during a meeting between Jeffrey Katzenberg, Roy E. Disney and Peter Schneider while promoting Oliver & Company in Europe. Thomas Disch and Woolverton wrote treatments of the film and George Scribner was signed on as director. Production began in 1991 and the staff traveled to Hell's Gate National Park for the film's setting and based the characters on real-life animals. When Allers joined the project, Scribner left production and was replaced by Minkoff. When Hahn joined the project, he was dissatisfied with the script and the story was promptly rewritten. In 1992, Mecchi and Roberts joined Woolverton as screenwriters. During production, most of the animators decided to work on their other project, Pocahontas, as they thought that it would be the more prestigious and successful of the two films. Nearly 20 minutes of animation sequences took place at Disney-MGM Studios in Florida. Computer animation was also used in several scenes, most notably in the wildebeest stampede scene.
