Assassin's Creed: Lineage

Most Dangerous Game

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules


            Simon is a young orphan being raised under the care of his uncle Tom. The early scenes of the film show him filming his conversation in the hospital with his dying grandfather. Through the eyes of Simon we see the grandfather as a caring, wise man, while through the perspective of his uncle we see the racist, backwards side. Simon's grandfather hated Simon's father and claims that he intended to kill Simon's mother in the car crash when, as Simon finds out at the film's conclusion, he had an eye condition. This condition prevented him from being able to drive at night, as the glare from oncoming headlights would blind him. The evening of the car crash reveals a different side of the story, causing the memories of each character to meet head on, connecting disparate stories of each character to unite in an Egoyanesque conclusion.Simon's family narrative is cleverly knit into a news story presented to Simon by his high school French teacher as a translation exercise. An article is read by the teacher about an attempted bombing of an aircraft by a man who put explosives in his pregnant wife's luggage. Simon gets the idea to translate the story and write it from the perspective of the child in the woman's womb. The teacher encourages Simon to develop his story as a drama exercise, however Simon presents it to the class and to the world via the Internet as if he really was that child. The teacher's silence, as we find out later, is owing to her relationship with Simon's late father who died, with his mother, in a car crash when he was still a child. The narrative of the car crash and the attempted bombing of the plane become intertwined as a way for the characters to deal with their past experiences, which they have all been trying to deny.The film is about a search for identity in a digital age where the truth is oftentimes irrelevant. Simon's story of his suicide bomber father is met on the Internet with sympathy, anger, and even support as we see a skinhead on webcam telling Simon that his father was a hero. The alienation experienced by Simon in relation to the world-wide response he receives to this made-up story ultimately serves as a mechanism that forces him to turn away from his computer and video screen to face the actual issues he experienced as a child. Simon's story takes a twist that involves all the other characters in his life, everyone's narrative culminating in the piecing together of a fragmented past that needed to be re-examined in order for those in the present to be healed and re-connect with the people in their lives.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Dog Days

Small Time


            Duane Balfour (Smith) was born into a family of misfortune, in the prairie town of Ridgeburg. He decides to run for high school mayor against his enemy, Chad Milton (Carella), against the advice of his teacher (Fox). Chad is the son of Ridgeburg's mayoress, who has been the incumbent for a ridiculously long time. After losing the high school election, Duane sets his sights higher -- at town mayor. Duane and a homeless man with no more than two votes in his favour are competing with Mayor Milton.Duane has a long-standing resentment against mayor Milton because she approved his father's shooting by the police after he became violent. This was because he was trying, without success, to warn Milton and Ridgeburg that the ridge upon which part of the town was built -- and named after -- would soon collapse due to heavy mining and insect tunneling. Neither would listen, which frustrated him.With the support of his brother he tries, and fails, to win the election. After quitting early from the race he and his uncle drive back to Duane's house from Ridgeburg's ridge. The camera pans down underground, showing an insect removing a rock from a tunnel under the ridge. This triggers a landslide -- leading to the implosion of the ridge, which Duane and his uncle see from the back of their truck. The next morning (the day that town election results are announced) it is revealed Mayor Milton has had a heart attack after seeing the ridge has collapsed, presumably since she realized that Duane's father was right all along.Later in the day it is announced that the homeless man has become mayor by three votes, Milton's votes being counted as invalid and Balfour having dropped out of the election. These two announcements come as a great surprise to all of Ridgeburg, who look forward to their new future without the iron fist of Mayor Milton.
