Peter Pan
I’m going to compare Peter Pan’s old version to the new one
Here are the differences:
In the old version, Peter Pan and the rest of the main characters are kids. He wants to rescue Wendy and her brothers, he lives in Never Land and Peter is in love with Wendy, but they are just friends. While in the new version Peter and Wendy are adults who want to rescue their children, they live in London and Peter is happily married to Wendy
But, the movies have similarities as well, for example, Tinkerbelle is very jealous; Peter has the same enemy, Hook; Tinkerbelle is Peter Pan’s best friend.

Hermione Jane Granger

She was born on September 19th 1980. She is the daughter of muggles and
the best student of the classroom. She loves reading books.
Her mother is an actress and her father too.
At the beginning of the writing process, Hermione had a younger sister
called Hada; but finally Rowling didn't include this character in the story, so
Hermine is an only child.
Her middle name is Jane. Her best friends are Harry Potter and Ronald
Weasley, she also gets on very well with Ginny Weasley.
In her fourth year at Hogwarts she saw Victor Krum, a famous queeditch
player from Bulgaria and she fell in love with him.
She has a developing social consciousness and will work hard for those, she
sees as oppressed. She was quick to take Neville, another student of
Hogwarts, under her wing and help Neville along, especially in Potion class.
She bought Crook shanks from a magical creatures store because no one had
liked him. She spent hours preparing a defence for buck beak, a falsely
accused hippogriff, and later became interested in the plight of house-elves.
Hermione is played by Emma Watson.

Jeremmy Sumper or Peter Pan?

I investigated about Jeremmy Sumper. He’s the actor who worked in `Peter Pan'.
He loves sports like basketball, swimming and surfing and his favourite food is spaghetti.
In contrast to Jeremmy, Peter Pan is so irresponsible; he wears clothes made out of leaves, sports? Well Peter loves flying, only that he hates working and his dream is to be a boy forever. He loves playing the panpipes too and fitting with Captain Hook.
Hook hates Peter because he is old and Peter is a young boy who can do a lot of things that Hook can’t. For example if Peter thinks in good things he flies.
In my opinion it is a very good idea if you want to see a fantastic story and you like action, I recommend you to see Peter Pan.

This year we studied movies in the workshops. In order to reach a final goal we had to follow certain steps. I’m going to explain the steps we followed.
First we decided on a topic and looked for information. Then we prepared a web and organize drafts. We also read information and we summarized it. After that we prepared posters and played really nice games. Finally we studied all the information and showed it to the miss.
As I see it, I think that it is a cool thing to work but it is difficult and takes a lot of time.

Happy Feet

Do you like penguins? Happy Feet is a funny story about a penguin and his relationship with others.
The best characters are Mumble, Gloria and Ramón. It is a great movie for kids. It hasn’t got any violent scenes and it is starred by beautiful penguins. It takes place in the Arctic. Not only It won an ‘‘Oscar’’, but it also has wonderful actors providing their voices, good scenes, very neat picture animations and beautiful locations

Rachel Hurd-Wood

She was born in London, England, to Philip. She has a younger brother, Patrick, and she currently resides in Godalming, Surrey. She claims to have had thoughts of becoming a marine biologist, until recently, when she apparently became interested in working with children who have special needs or disabilities.

Wendy Daring was her first experience acting. She said that it was amazing, and she never thought that she will do it.
I enjoyed seeing her acting in Peter Pan movie

Character Profile

Mumble is the Happy Feet’s protagonist. He is one year old and he is 65 cm. tall and he weighs 20 kilos. He is a male penguin; he has got black and white feathers, and
his body is pink. He lives in the Arctic, he goes to school because he is adapting to the Arctic’s life, Gloria is his best friend, he hasn’t got any enemies, he likes life, but there is one problem: he is different from the other penguins. His favourite colors are black and white, swimming is his favourite sport. Fish is his favourite food, he likes dancing, and he dances the music “Heartbreak Hotel”.

CHARACTER PROFILE

The author who wrote Harry Potter’s books is J.K.Rowling.
Daniel Radcliffe is the character who played Harry Potter. He is a medium height adolescent; he’s got short black hair and green eyes.
He’s lived in London, England his whole life because there he has made the movies. He is a good actor, that’s the reason why he keeps on acting. He has a good relation ship with his workmates and he doesn’t like trouble, because of that he has no enemies. Daniel Radcliffe really like life because he is having a good time, in my opinion he is an idol!
If I had the opportunity, I’d like to be his friend, because he is so interesting, cool, funny and popular, he is perfect!

Hello I’m Bautista Mihura, I’m twelve years old and I go to intermediate group. I’m going to tell you about Happy Feet, the movie.
The film establishes that every penguin must sing his own song, which is called a heart song, in order to get a female.
When Mumble (main character) was a child he didn’t have his heart song and for that reason he went away from the colony. Mumble then grew to a young adult and instead of having a heart song, he could dance tap. The “friends group “quickly saw Mumble’s dance moves and invited him into their group.
Returning home, Gloria was the centre of attention, like Mumbles’ mother. Ramon stood behind Mumble and sang. Gloria liked the song and knew Mumble couldn’t sing. Mumble started to dance and they fell in love.
Happy Feet is a wonderful movie for children.
