Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore

Description

Fantastic Beasts: The Secrets of Dumbledore is a fantasy film released in 2022, directed by David Yates. The film is a sequel to Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald and is the third instalment in the Fantastic Beasts film series and the eleventh in the Wizarding World franchise. The story is set several years after the events of the previous movie and follows Albus Dumbledore as he assigns Newt Scamander and his allies with a mission to take on dark wizard Gellert Grindelwald and his army. The ensemble cast includes Eddie Redmayne, Jude Law, Ezra Miller, Dan Fogler, Alison Sudol, Callum Turner, Jessica Williams, Katherine Waterston, and Mads Mikkelsen.

Filming for the movie was postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic and eventually started in September 2020. Johnny Depp, who portrayed Grindelwald in the previous movies, filmed one scene for the film but was asked to resign in November 2020 following a court case. Mads Mikkelsen replaced him later that month. The film premiered in London in March 2022 and was released in the United Kingdom and the United States in April 2022 in different formats. The film received mixed reviews from critics, but it was generally considered better than its predecessor. It grossed over $407 million worldwide, making it the lowest-grossing film in the Wizarding World franchise.

The plot of the movie involves a battle between Albus Dumbledore and Gellert Grindelwald. Grindelwald wants to destroy the Muggle world, but Dumbledore denounces the plan. Unable to battle Grindelwald due to a blood pact they formed, Dumbledore enlists Newt, Newt's brother Theseus, and other allies to thwart Grindelwald's plan for world domination. The movie follows the allies as they travel to Berlin, where Yusuf is planted as a spy in Grindelwald's inner circle. The team must thwart Grindelwald's plan and prevent him from becoming the Supreme Leader of the International Confederation of Wizards.

X-Men: First Class

2011
Sci-Fi & Fantasy
Do not misread the connotations in the title X-Men: First Class. "First class" is a phrase which here does not mean "the best, the finest, the most luxurious," nor does it signify "the part of the plane with complimentary cocktails and room to stretch out." Take the phrase literally. In strangely oxymoronic style, the studio's promotional materials claim X-Men: First Class "charts the epic beginning (sic) of the X-Men saga," the first group of students to graduate from Professor X's school for reluctant super-heroes. "Who knew an "epic beginning" was possible? In their salad days, Charles Xavier and Erik Lensherr, ultimately sworn mortal enemies, were the best of buds, experimenting with and testing their newly discovered powers, preparing to join other Mutants to prevent Armageddon. X-Men: First Class documents their nasty break-up. They could not be "just friends.""Although the men allegedly star in X-Men: First Class, the so-called "supporting actresses" threaten to steal the show. January Jones of "Madmen" fame plays Emma Frost, villainesse supreme, co-conspirator with Kevin Bacon as Sebastian Shaw, criminal mastermind. More notably, Jennifer Lawrence—yes that Jennifer Lawrence, low-keyed "It Girl" from Winter's Bone and the Oscars' red carpet—plays Mystique, aka Raven Darkholme, shape-shifting mutant. By film's end, girl power may trump super-powers.
Ender's Game

Ender's Game

2013
Sci-Fi & Fantasy
The most anticipated adaptation of 2013 Ender's Game is loosely based on the same name book, that was probably the most iconic sci-fi novel in mid of 80s. Its author, Orson Scott Card has had many chances during 80s and 90s to make a movie after his book as the astronomically budgeted Hollywood movie. However he has kept his creative rights till 2000, when he finally decided to film the bestseller with the co-founding the Fresco Pictures to make a movie and write a screenplay himself. The action of Ender's Game unfolds in the distant future when Earth is invaded by myriads of Formics, an aggressive alien race also known as Buggers for their insects-alike appearance. The humanity is on the verge of distinction when the Strategist of the Earth takes a historical decision – to search a potentially talented child to train him as Great War Commander using the sophisticated space battle simulators. After a severe screening, they found Ender, a promising boy who shows the astonishing results on battle simulators. While his training is in progress it becomes absolutely clear that Ender is a last hope of human race to survive. His mentors decide to accelerate his learning by promoting him to Command School where he trains using state-of-the-art simulators that create an illusion of real space battle. Meanwhile, Ender's psychentonia makes him on the verge of nervous breakdown when he decides to fail his last exam: facing enemy's superior forces leaving no chances to win, he leads his spaceships to imminent death hoping that at least one could reach the planet to launch the MD, a devices that destructs all the object with positive mass around. That means a total annihilation of both human's and alien's spaceships and the planet in addition. Upon the "success" he surprisingly gets an ovation from his examiners: all his simulators' games were real space battles since he entered the Command School, and the last battle was the real Last Battle of International Forces against the Aliens where Earthlings have won thanks to Ender's brilliant strategy. Asa Butterfield stars in Ender's Game as main character Ender Wiggin. His filmography includes Hugo (as Hugo Cabret), Nanny McPhee and the Big Bang (as Norman Green) and The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas (as Bruno). Harrison Ford (Apocalypse Now, Star Wars franchise, Witness) plays as Colonel Graff, Ender's mentor.
