Overall, we’d like to talk about the new movie, Avatar: Fire and Ash! This movie has amazing prequels, Avatar (2009), and Avatar: Way of Water (2022). So, let's review its prequels!

First, let's go over Avatar (2009)! According to the Avatar website, this movie takes place in the year 2154 and is about saving Earth's energy crisis by mining a rare mineral on a distant far away moon called Pandora. The indigenous lifeforms of Pandora are stopping that from happening by attacking the humans because the humans harm the environment very negatively so they can find the well needed ore. Jake Sully, a former marine, is constantly transferred back and forth from his human body and the genetically grown body of an Avatar to get the mineral on Pandora, but he is faced with setbacks and realizes some important things along the way. In this wonderful sci-fi/fantasy movie, you see breathtaking moments and realize the beauty of Pandora, and witness the battle that decides the fate of a world!

JAWS

By Poppy Sachen

Did you know that Jaws was one of Steven Spielberg's biggest films? The movie I’m going to be talking about is the 1975 hit movie Jaws.

Jaws was directed by Steven Spielberg and was in production for 159 days, wildly exceeding their planned schedule. This was due to the trouble of many, many malfunctions with the huge mechanical shark they called ¨Bruce¨going into the Atlantic ocean.

Jaws went about $5 million dollars over budget. Steven Spielberg had stated, "I truly believed that Jaws would be the last movie I would ever be given to direct.” But really, it was the one that had started it all with the film making over $470 million dollars at its release.

Jaws had, in a way, traumatized many of the people that made the film because of how much stress, anxiety and panic it created to make the film. However, the making of the film also allowed some fun on-set times. Jaws is known for its masterful suspense and most iconic way of introducing and creating a blueprint and acts as a model for the future high achieving, big studio films after Jaws.

Jaws won 3 Academy Awards: Best Original Score, Best Film Editing, and Best Sound. Jaws also won a grammy for Best Album of Original Score Written for a Motion Picture or a Television Special in 1976.

Overall, Jaws is a world-class classic film. I highly recommend watching it if you haven't already. I hope this interested you and thanks for reading this article!
