What the Heck Movie Review: Batman and Robin (1997) Part 2

By, 9.11

…Later in the movie, the woman comes back and kills the other guy. She takes the monster criminal and goes to Gotham City. She goes to an exposition of this telescope that Bruce Wayne (Batman) is sponsoring when Mr. Freeze comes in and tries to steal some diamonds that power the telescope and incidentally power his suit.
Mr. Freeze and the woman who is now calling herself Poison Ivy because she can control plants team up and plan to freeze the entire city.

Then something completely random happens and Batman’s servant’s niece comes to visit and finds out Bruce Wayne is Batman. Then she gets her own suit and Batman, Robin, and Batgirl (the niece) go to stop Poison Ivy and Mr. Freeze.

The three superheroes win in the cheesiest fight scene of all time.

At the end it shows the three running across rooftops and the movie ends.

The moral of this story is to never make a movie just for selling toys. That is the worst idea since the idea to have Taylor Swift sing.

POEMS!

By, Carmel Candy

Happy National Poetry Month! There are all different types of poems! Your poem could range from one line to 100 lines.

This is a poem that I found rather confusing. What do you think this poem means?

The Red Wheelbarrow

so much depends
upon
a red wheel
barrow
glazed with rain
water
beside the white
chickens.
By: William Carlos Williams

That poem is quite weird right? Well either that poem has a really deep meeting and maybe the wheelbarrow is a metaphor for something. Or maybe this poem is just really truly about a red wheelbarrow.

Here is a poem I wrote. I’m not sure how much sense it makes but oh well.

California
warm, sunny
exciting, surfing, tanning
spring, summer, fall, winter
snowing, charming, amazing
cold, rainy
Indiana

Dance is a way to express yourself and all the feelings you can’t just say. There is a local Indiana dance company called Dance Kaleidoscope. It’s a small, but talented, group of dancers that are in wonderfully, beautiful choreographed danced. They have started a new season of dances and it has proved to be one of the best! FIVE STARS!

The season has already started, but that doesn’t mean you’re too late! If you love the art of dance, to watch or to do, you will love Dance Kaleidoscope!

Beautiful Cupcakes

cupcakes

By, Piglet

Picture from Pinterest! Recipe from me!

These cupcakes are so easy but look so elegant! They taste amazing, too! You will need:

Cupcakes (white tastes best)
White frosting
White mini marshmallows
Food coloring
Sugar

Directions: Bake your cupcakes, and frost each one lightly. Take the mini marshmallows and cut them in half diagonally. They should now have a sticky side. Mix about three drops of food coloring in a Ziploc bag of sugar, until the food coloring is all mixed in. Dip the sticky side of the marshmallows in the sugar, and stick the marshmallows to the frosting of the cupcake, starting around the outside of the cupcake. Keep arranging the marshmallow halves in little circles going inward until there is no more space. It’s time consuming but is so amazing!

Oz: The Great and Powerful Review

By, Haeli Juthani

Over Spring Break, I saw the movie Oz: The Great and Powerful with some friends. It was a pretty good movie. Some points seemed to drag out but overall it was a great movie. I think young children or teenagers would mostly like this movie. It is a modern-take twist on the old classic. The basic plot is good over evil, but the small details make the movie super fun. The costumes and makeup were astounding. Overall, this movie was great.

The Princess Bride

By, Sarah J.B.

I recently saw the movie The Princess Bride. It’s probably one of my all- time favorite movies now! Here’s the plot: Buttercup hires a boy to work for her. His name is Westley, but Buttercup calls him Farmboy. They fall in love, but Westley doesn’t have any money to marry Buttercup. So he sails overseas to get his money, but is captured by the Dread Pirate Roberts. Buttercup is heartbroken when she finds out he is dead. Five years later, she is asked to marry the King, but does not truly love him. Buttercup is captured by a mysterious man in a black suit and mask. He claims he is the Dread Pirate Roberts. Do you believe that?

Crazy for the Croods

By, Princess Ariel

Over spring break I went and saw the new movie, The Croods. When I walked into the theater, all the seats were filled. I could tell that if this many people showed up, then The Croods is probably a good movie to see. The Croods is a funny, comical, and fun adventure for the whole family. This movie will have you laughing to the very end. Now, if you’re a real sentimental person like me, there is a part in the movie that really made me cry. But I’m not a blabbermouth. The Croods is a movie for people of all ages. This is a movie that is worth seeing.

What the Heck Movie Review: Batman and Robin (1997) Part 1

By, 9.11

“Batman and Robin” has to be one of the cheesiest movies of all time. Terrible is what I think of when I think of this movie.

So, the movie starts out with the classic scene of Batman and Robin putting together their costumes and Batman’s car comes out.

(I never understood the car in this movie)

So, Batman gets in his car and Robin gets on his motor bike. Then some screen pops up in Batman’s car and some cop appears on the screen and tells Batman that it’s Mr. Freeze attacking the museum.
When Batman and Robin get to the museum, they start beating up Mr. Freeze’s henchmen in some ice skating scene.

Then Mr. Freeze escapes in a big ice vehicle.

So, lots of boring fight scenes later, a plant study person in a place where they grow plants keeps wondering why her coworker keeps stealing her funds and plants. She goes into his lad only to see that he is using that stuff to create some venom that makes this criminal turn into some monster.

The guy throws her into some chemicals and she sinks into the ground…
