I would like to give thanks to all who have served and lost their lives. Wars are something that should only happen when necessary because even when you win there are still so many losses. I would also like to give thanks to those who are currently serving or who have served.
In honor of Memorial Day, I wanted to put together a list of movies that show characters fighting for something. From an alien attack in Battle: Los Angeles to fighting against Nazis in Captain America: The First Avenger these movies show the dedication and bravery to fight for either a change or a better world or to fix a colossal mistake such as in Kong: Skull Island where the military ventured some where they should have never gone.
My Memorial Day movie list:
- Battle: Los Angeles
- Rogue One: A Star Wars Story
- Kong: Skull Island
- Wonder Woman
- Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows part 2
- Captain America: The First Avenger
Battle: Los Angeles
Description:
For many years, humans have reported various UFO sightings around the world, fueling speculation about the existence of life on other worlds. In 2011, mankind learns the truth the hard way when alien invaders attack. One by one, the world's great cities fall, leaving Los Angeles as the battleground for humanity's last stand. It's up to a Marine staff sergeant and his platoon to draw a line in the sand against a powerful enemy unlike any previously encountered.
It's DVD Tuesday and what am I picking up this week? Two things, Kong: Skull Island and Teen Wolf Season 6 part 1. I really wanted to see Kong when it was in the theatre but didn't get a chance to, I didn't have the time. Ugh, that's becoming the story of my life when it comes to wanting to see a movie.
Ah, Teen Wolf, it's become new favorite show and of course I'm going to get 6A or part 1 it goes without saying. Plus, it's the beginning of the end with these first ten episodes of season 6.
Kong: Skull Island
Description:
When a scientific expedition to an uncharted island awakens titanic forces of nature, a mission of discovery becomes an explosive war between monster and man.
This trailer for Kong: Skull Island looks good I really want to see it. Apparently, humans have yet to learn when to leave animals and nature alone. Kong and rest of the animals look like they were minding their own business before the explorers caused so much trouble. It will be interesting to see how this ends.
