Mia's Musings: Jaws

BEWARE: THIS MOVIE IS NOT FOR THE SQUEAMISH 

Well, yesterday evening on the TV we watched JAWS.

It was relatively gruesome.

It is set in Amity Island and started off with a woman getting attacked at the beginning, but it really sucks because you don't get to see her left-overs. The chief of Police, Brody, wants to shut down the beaches, and then another incident happens. One by one, people are going down, getting eaten by the Great White Shark. There may be other sharks that get accused, they maybe some scary scenes, but in the end, Jaws gets his comeuppance.

5/5 stars,  it may be dated, but it is an extremely good movie with gruesome bits added. Have your pillow at the ready. Also, you here the famous Jaws song on numerous occasions.

I recommend it for people over the age of 10 unless gruesome things don't scare them and they promise to go back in the sea again. 

Mias Musings: Life of Pi

Today I went to the cinema to watch Life of Pi. I didn't know anything about it apart from that there was a tiger and a man on a boat.
Frankie has been blabbing on all morning about it. 'Hey Mia!' She was saying. ' We're going to watch the Life of a Pie!! ' Haha ,very funny. Her story goes on about a Pie getting made then sold at Tescos and finally getting eaten.
Pi Patel's story is quite different. It starts off with Pi's name. He is named after a French swimming pool. Piscene Molitor.
His dad owns a zoo. He has multiple religions and a rude nickname. They also don't have that much money.
Which is why they have to take the animals aboard to Canada to sell them and live there.
When the boat sinks in the Marianas trench and Pi gets stranded on a life boat with a zebra with a broken leg, Orange Juice the Orang-Utang, a hyeana and a Tiger called Richard Parker a whole different story begins.
I will give you a couple of pointers; Floating Islands, Gods fury and an enormous whale.

Very good movie, amazing animations. 5/5 any day.
Beware. Animals will be eaten.

So Sorry

We are sorry for are delay of posts we have been on holiday!!!
Thankyou Frankie

Frankies foughts on: Free Willy 4

Free Willy 4 is a really good movie although the little girl's voice is really anoying. It's about a whale that gets detatched from his pod and washed in to a big pool were a penguin lives. Just before that happened a little girl is forced to go to south Africa after dad had an accident and she has no one to turn to except her grandpa. It's very good although one minute they have a broken car the  next it's fixed.
Hope you enjoy Frankie

Frankies forghts on:Lord of the rings

Lord of the rings is an over 9 hour long movie all thoe it is split in to three discs on the last one it went on a bit long it just went on and on and on and there was about 20 diffrent possible endings.

And now there is one on the hobbit that i am hoping will be a bit better and shorter.

Mia's musings: Accelerated Reading

Well, I completely condradict Frankie when it comes to Accelerated reader.
I think it is absouletly rubbish.
It wouldn't let me have fun with books and was constantly moaning that I wasn't reading enough. I was, just  not that much on the books registered in that drivel. I completely DO NOT reccomend it. ( Angry Face) Meh. It gives you a score out of ten from questions on the book, which are normally completely irrelevant to the plot of the story. And they are easier than easy. I mean, one book I read was 'My mum's from Planet Pluto!'. The question was: What Planet does Michael ( I think) refer to as his mum coming from?
Answer: Pluto.
What a suprise! ( sarcastic voice )
It got in the way of my school life and teachers were constantly nagging about it. Also, there was only one computer you could do it on, and twenty children trying to get on it. Not exactly fun. Children running around the classrooms like headless chickens wondering why there not on it yet. Oh. Only because there is another 23 kids lining up next to it.

Grrrrrr.

P.S I am debating whether to get a raffle ticket for the Guiness Book of records 2013. They are twenty pence from my school. Post with what you think

Frankie's foughts on Accelerated Reader

At my school we have a system called Accelerated Reader. On it you have to do tests on books you have read. Recently I did a test on The Wreck of the Zanzibar by Michael Morpurgo and got 10/10.

After each test it gives you a report and tells you how many points you got over all the school year, how many words you have read overall, quizzes taken and quizzes passed.

I think it is a very good system because it makes sure you have read the book and understood it.
