蔬菜大电影:无所事事的海盗
The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything: A VeggieTales Movie (2008)
这个一群可爱的蔬菜们的故事,开始于一次意外事故。 在一个月光皎洁的夜晚,一群驾驶着大篷车旅行的“蔬菜”们在大道上一边前进,一边快乐的唱歌。但是他们不小心与一群由“衣服”为主力组成的小团体发生了争执,于是引发了一场战斗。在和这伙晒衣绳、拳击短裤和豪猪等的作战中,“蔬菜”们的大蓬车出了事故,于是他们只好来到一个破旧萧条的海鲜市场寻求帮助。
在这里他们遇到了一群号称“什么事也懒的做”的海盗。在等待拖车帮忙的时候,他们与这群海盗坐在一起闲聊。海盗们讲了一个关于主人公芦笋约拿的故事:故事发生在很久以前的另一个地方。主人公芦笋约拿是一个信使。不过他可不是一个普通的投递员,他是上帝的信使。约拿很喜欢自己的工作,一天,他接到一个任务,要他把信送给古亚述国尼尼微城的人们。约拿不喜欢尼尼微人,因为他们不仅喜欢撒谎、偷窃,而且还喜欢用鱼砸人。于是,约拿不仅不着急去完成任务,却坐上了一条相反方向行驶的船。船的主人正是这群“什么事也懒的做”的海盗。在船上,他还遇到了一个地毯“商人”,毛虫卡里尔。不幸的是,约拿被一只巨大的鲸鱼吞到了肚子里面。在鲸鱼的肚子里,又发生了一段惊险、刺激却又好玩的故事。
Meet the Spartans (2008)/遇见斯巴达
他们,是歃血为誓的勇士;他们,是以一敌百的壮男;他们的战争,直至最后一滴血流尽方休。他们,就是所向披靡的斯巴达壮士!知道那场前无古人后无来者历史上最惨烈的战役温泉关大战么?前情提要:波斯王薛西斯御驾亲征率铁骑攻向希腊,前来劝降的波斯使者被咱骁勇善战的斯巴达国王列奥尼达(肖恩·马奎尔)一脚踢进了死亡坑,身着薄纱的神诏女巫乱舞结论是此战必败,而某长相酷似咕噜的叛徒更因为不能入伍而出卖了三百壮士的行踪。
总而言之,拜别美艳的皇后(卡门·伊莱克特拉),英明神武的斯巴达王列奥尼达如今只带着13名精锐死守在温泉关的色摩比利山隘口,腹背受敌。箭雨?利刃?血流成河?No!No!No!咱斯巴达勇士一世英名,自然要用热力四射的高难度街舞秒杀敌人!只听得列奥尼达一声令下,一个个精壮腹肌男舞得眼花缭乱,虽然叹为观止的高难度差点把自己的脖子扭骨折,却也达到效果--“吓”得对面敌军面无人色落花流水。黄沙漫天、金戈铁马,泼墨似的暗黄色调中,骷髅头鬼面骑士、发疯的小甜甜布兰妮、缩小版怪物史莱克等一一登场,这一场大战必将“惊”天地“泣”鬼神!
Mad Money (2008)/疯狂的钱/女为财死/我为钱狂
人为财死,鸟为食亡,金山银山的美国联邦储备局引诱起盗匪的垂涎,全在意料之中。可破入戒备森严银行内部的,居然是三个平平无奇的小女人,真是吓掉看客的下巴!好莱坞又一次异想天开?非也非也!本“奇案”原产自英格兰,数年前那桩英格兰银行内部偷窃案就曾引发过一部名为《热钱》的小制作。
惊世骇俗的真实罪案哪能被埋没!新成立而雄心勃勃的序曲影业迅速拍板翻拍。但凡新制片公司总少不了拉拢大牌撑场(序曲影业的另一部未来影片邀来德尼罗和帕西诺再聚首),《我为钱狂》中也来了不少实力派:导演坎莉·库里若干年前一部《末路狂花》得蒙奥斯卡恩赐最佳剧本,对被逼上梁山的女贼心理理当了若指掌;编剧格林·格尔斯近作《破绽》里凑齐安东尼·霍普金斯和瑞恩·高斯林新老两代戏骨,铺陈了一桩勾心斗角的完美罪案。
说来也巧,《我为钱狂》里也聚合了老中青三代女将--《爱是妥协》中惊人一裸的黛安·基顿,《芝加哥》里的胖妈妈奎恩·拉蒂法,还有新任汤嫂凯蒂·霍尔姆斯,其中汤嫂还为本片放弃了加盟《蝙蝠侠:黑暗骑士》。虽是三个温馨派常客,可谢天谢地,影片和爱情家庭小品一点都搭不上边(不是瞎抱怨,看看基顿上一部老中青齐聚的《爱得过火》毁成了什么样)!三个弱女人一台大盗戏,有得看头!
First Sunday (2008)/第一个周日/笨贼的祈祷
两个笨贼“重新上路”,业余的持枪姿势、笨拙的打劫办法、搞笑的前后配合,令人捧腹。但毫无准备的神父和正在教堂做礼拜的里奇(卡特·威廉姆斯饰)一家人却在如此乌龙的打劫中“成功”地变成了两个笨贼的人质。其间,听到枪声的警察也赶来询问,但面对胆小滑稽的冒牌神父里奇的应答,警察也被蒙骗过去。最终,两个笨贼的抢劫能否成功?杜莱尔能否留住爱子?倒霉的冒牌神父和人质们能否平安回家?……
末日危城 In the Name of the King: A Dungeon Siege Tale
改编自著名的动作RPG游戏,讲述一位农夫为拯救被抢走的妻子以及为死去的儿子复仇,找上了控制着兽族军队的高卢恶魔。本片由德国著名游戏电影导演Uwe Boll执导,既然是由动作游戏改编的,其中的动作镜头当然不少,所以该片请来了香港著名导演、武术指导程小东担任动作指导。
The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything : A VeggieTales Movie Synopsis
From the creators of 2002's wildly successful Jonah—A VeggieTales Movie comes a new story of heroism in the beloved VeggieTales' world, The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything. Now, we follow the comic misadventures of three animated veggie pals who reluctantly set sail for adventure and discover that real heroes don't have to be tall, strong, handsome…or even human.
Garrrrr! Working at The Pirate Times Dinner Theater is less than exciting when you're a busboy. For three moping misfits— Elliot, Sedgewick and George (Larry the Cucumber, Mr. Lunt and Pa Grape)—all they dream of is the day when they can ditch their dishrags and take stage to star in the big pirate show.
But with Elliot's timidity, Sedgewick's laziness and George's lack of self-confidence, it seems as if the day to prove who they really are will never come...
Things are about to change when a mysterious ball drops from the sky and lands at the unlikely seafarers' feet. A 'Helpseeker' sent from the past in search of heroes, the artifact sets in motion a series of events that drags the friends back to the 17th century—and into the belly of certain danger. The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything must each face their fears—becoming unlikely heroes in a battle to rescue a royal family from an evil tyrant, and themselves from living the life of common couch potatoes.
The latest in a franchise that has sold over 40 million DVDs/videos since its 1993 inception, The Pirates Who Don't Do Anything—A VeggieTales Movie continues the hit series' values-based lessons in teaching kids what it really means to be a hero.
Meet the Spartans Movie Synopsis
After successfully skewering Hollywood’s scariest movie (as two of the writers on “Scary Movie”), romantic comedy franchises (“Date Movie”), and Hollywood blockbusters (“Epic Movie”), writers/directors/producers Jason Friedberg and Aaron Seltzer now set their sights on “300.” The heroic Leonidas, armed with nothing but leather underwear and a cape, leads a ragtag group of 13 — count ‘em, 13! — Spartans to defend their homeland against the invading Persians (whose ranks include Ghost Rider, Rocky Balboa, the Transformers, and a hunchbacked Paris Hilton).

After a lifetime of playing by the rules, the three devise a plan to smuggle soon-to-be destroyed currency out of the supposedly airtight Reserve. As the unlikely crime syndicate amasses piles of cash, it looks like they have pulled off the perfect crime—until a minor misstep alerts the authorities. With more money than they know what to do with, the women are pushed to the limits of their ingenuity to stay one step ahead of the law!
