Katherine's Post

At The Movies
By: Katherine

Have any of you ever watched Monsters vs. Aliens...... or 17 Again? Today I just went to watch those two movies with my friend, Stephanie, and the movies were awesome! I couldn't choose which one I liked better, because I liked both. Have you guys ever watched those movies? Or did you only watch one? Did you enjoy it? Which one do you like better?

When you look at the title of Monsters vs. Aliens, which one do you think would be the bad guy..... the monsters...... or the aliens? Did you even imagine that there would be humans in it? Apparently, I didn't, I just thought that there was always a enemy relationship with monsters and aliens and that the monsters never were changed from any human or tomato into a monster. It was a lot more awesome and exciting than that. Here's how it all started: A girl, Susan, that was about to get married got hit by a meteorite and became a monster that was huge and had white hair, but still looked normal. Many people were scared and ran away, but her soon-to-be-husband, Derek, still stuck with her, but Susan got taken by these monster-taker humans. It was hidden, and no one knew about it. Little did Susan know that there were other monsters besides her that were also in this place. Dr. Cockroach, The Missing Link, B.O.B, and Insectosaurus all were monsters, too. Dr. Cockroach used to be a mad scientist (and he still is), but now a cockroach. The Missing Link is a fish-ape hybrid and is good friends with Insectosaurus, who used to be a insect that was one inch, but is now a 350 feet tall, and can shoot silk out of his nose. B.O.B, on the other hand, used to be a tomato, and doesn't have a brain, who is now a bue blob. Gallaxhar, an alien who destroyed it's own planet, wants Susan because she contains , something that Gallaxhar wants, so he sends an alien robot to destroy them and get Susan, but..... I won't tell you the rest, watch it in the movie theatres, 3D!
I also watched 17 Again. My friends all said that it was a wonderful movie, so Stephanies' mom, Stephanie, and I went to watch it right after Monsters vs. Aliens. The main character is Michael O'Donnel, a 37 year-old man, who wants to go back to 17 years old, when his life changed, which is the reason why he wants to so back at that time and change it, so he goes to his high school. This is because Scarlett, his wife, forces him to move in with is geeky best friend. There, he meets his spirit guide, a mysterious janitor, who only Mike can see. The janitor turns him back into his 17 year old self, and is in his best friend's, Ned, a millionare, house, who doesn't recognize him until he sees the photo. There, they recognize that a spirit guide did it, and Mike aka. Michael goes back to his old high school enrolled as Mark Gold, and Ned's son. There, Mike sees his son, Alex, and daughter, Maggie, all facing troubles. He must act like a father and protect him, but with his 17 year old form, how does he do that? Watch 17 Again in theaters!
Believe me, those are the best movies that I have ever watched, and they are awesome! Make sure you watch both of them!

I went to Monster's VS. Aliens for my birthday party. It was awesome! I liked because it was very funny; B.O.B he could go through anything which made him do many cool activities. The coolest part of the was that it was 3-D. I absolutely loved it!

17 again sounds like a good movie. I haven't watched it, but I think it will be interesting because adults always wish they were teenagers again and Micheal actually gets a chance to have that wish come true.

I want to watch Monster's VS. Aliens for my birthday coming up. Everyone always said the movie was great and really funny. So far by the images, I like B.O.B. and Dr. Cockroach. I like Dr. Cockroach because he looks funny and kind of freaky with the human legs and a cockroach head.
