this article is about 5 ways Marvels changed filmmaking forever. the Avengers in my opinion is a great movie! i watch it a lot and i like it a lot. according to this article, the Avengers always felt like the end of an era, but in fact it was so much more. so far it has already been an success. it has pulled in more than 1.5 billion$ in the box office. in the movie you can see that the director possess a talent for writing that adds texture and substance to fleshed out charatures. this may be way Avengers were so successful in the first place.
my thoughts while reading this article was that i found it interesting but not as interesting as the other one. i love this movie but the article made it seem less entertaining. i did nit enjoy how it was set up and what ideas were given. i still love the movie though.

this article is about the new movie Rise of the Guardians directed by Peter Ramsey. this new movie is a step up for dreamworks animation. both films created a new look then the original animation. in the movie, they take the mythological part very seriously. Peter Ramsey says, "i tell people thats the greatest film school anyone could offer. i mean, i had the best teachers." he tells us "nowadays you can do almost anything you want in live action." this movie is directed to kids rather then adults but there are a lot of suspenseful  scenes that keep you at the edge of your seat fit for other viewers as well. the ending of the movie has a happy yet dark side to it. witch makes this movie more enjoyable for most.
   my reaction towards this article was that i found it very fun and interesting to read. I'm actually looking forward to this movie and reading about it made it more realistic. i also liked how this article was set up and how they included humor in it. it made it more enjoyable to read.
