Eye Of The Beholder

Filed under: Movies, Books, TV, etc — admin @ 11:44 am

Eye of the Beholder is an action game filled with alot of monsters, to
say the least. There are three parts to it, named Eye of the Beholder I,
II, and III. They are actually three separate games. The one I’ve spent
the most time on is Eye of the Beholder II, simply because my mom
remembers most of the game and usually helps me when I get frustrated.
You create an exploring party of four, and you can pick up more
characters along the way. The best idea is to have a mage, a cleric, a
fighter, and a thief. No guns, sorry! No, instead, this game deals with
swords and magic and stuff. You fight praying mantises, beholders,
medusas, flying snakes, skeletal warriors, and many more monsters that I
cannot remember. The graphics are really amazing. They’re better than I
expected them to be. I can’t write what happens in the end of the game,
because I have never actually finished the game. I can’t wait to,
though. I really want to know what happens. This is not a game you can
finish in a day. It takes a lot of thought and a lot of effort. Enjoy!

My Fair Lady is about a poor flower girl who got turned into a lady by a
professor of phonetics. She learned to Speak as a duchess would, and got
passed off as a lady at the Embassy Ball. During her lessons, though,
she fell in love with her professor and he fell in love with her. Really
cool.

(Gene Kelly, Van Johnson, Cyd Charisse)

Not a place that is on a map, it only appears once every hundred years.
Two New Yorkers that were hunting and got lost happened to stumble
across this magical place. There, one of them met a young Scottish girl
and fell in love with her. He stayed and married her in Brigadoon, but
the sad part is, his friend died. Sad movie, really. I don’t know why I
ever watched it in the first place.

Titanic

(Leonardo DiCaprio, Kate Winslet)

One of the best love stories of all time, Titanic is one of my favorite
movies. The movie begins with the Titanic having sunk and eighty or so
years ago, and a dive team was trying to bring up artifacts from the
wreck. They come in contact with old rose, who shared her story of the
fateful voyage. Young Rose was engaged to Cal Hockley, and extremely
rich man. Yet, she didn’t love him, and didn’t want to marry him. She
tried to commit suicicde by throwing herself off the ship, but Jack
saved her. Jack and Rose continued to become closer. Then the Titanic
hit hte iceberg. Rose essentially told Cal where he could go, and stayed
with Jack in the freezing water until he died. One of the saddest movies
I’ve ever seen, but I still love it.

18 children…. That’s what happens when two lonely people get together
and get married. Helen North had eight kids and Frank Beardsley had ten,
and they decided to get married and cause chaos.They had to deal with
everything from the oldest going off to the army, to the birth of their
19th child. Really cool, if you think about it. Busy parents, anyway.

The Waltons

(Richard Thomas, Ralph Waite, Miss Micheal Learned, Will Geer, Ellen
Corby)

The Waltons is quite simply, a classic. John-Boy Walton is a young man
growing up in the middle of the Great Depression. He learned what love
and caring is about from his father and mother. He lived on a mountain
called Walton’s Mountain. He helped his family get through
misunderstandings, fights, and everything else. He also went to college
and learned what life was like there. The Waltons is one of the best TV
shows I’ve ever seen.

The Stand

The book The Stand is about a plague that sweeps through and kills most
of the people in the United States. The superflu was what it was called.
An even greater threat rose after that, as the survivors struggled to
bury their dead and make sense of it all. The good and the evil come
together and one will prevail, but which one?

The Unsinkable Molly Brown

(Debbie Reynolds, Harve Russell)

The movie is about a young girl who didn’t know how to read or write,
and she somehow managed to become one of the most famouswomen in
history. She was the wife of Johnny Brown, who was poor until he struck
it rich in the mines. She went to Paris, Rome, all over Europe, really.
She even sailed on the Titanic and lived to tell about it. This movie
was based on the story of Margaret "Molly" Brown, and how she became one
of the richest women in history.
