Isabella "Bella" Marie Cullen (née Swan), was born to Charlie Swan and Renée Dwyer on September 13, 1987, and is the main protagonist of the Twilight Saga. In Twilight, she is a 17-year-old girl who transfers schools from Phoenix, Arizona to Forks, Washington to live with her father Charlie, where she meets and falls in love with a vampire, Edward Cullen.

In Breaking Dawn, she marries Edward on August 13, 2006 and becomes a member of the Olympic coven. She is transformed into a vampire by Edward after nearly dying giving birth to their daughter, Renesmee Cullen, a human/vampire hybrid. Bella is the daughter-in-law of Edward, Sr. and Elizabeth Masen, as well as the adoptive daughter-in-law of Carlisle and Esme Cullen. She is the adoptive sister-in-law of Alice and Emmett Cullen, and of Jasper and Rosalie Hale.

As a human, Bella possessed a natural immunity to the mental powers of vampires. After her transformation into a vampire, she develops it into the ability to project a mental shield that protects others from the psychic powers of other vampires. Her Life and Death counterpart is Beau Swan.

She is portrayed by Kristen Stewart in the movie adaptations.

Isabella Marie Swan was born on September 13, 1987, to Renée and Charlie Swan, a young couple living in the small town of Forks, Washington. Her parents divorced when she was only three months old. Renée took Bella with her to Downey, California, to live with her difficult grandmother, before moving to Riverside after her mother got her education degree and landed a job as a kindergarten teacher at a local school.

At the beginning of Twilight, Bella moves back to her birth town of Forks, Washington, to live with her father, Charlie Swan, to let her mother, Renée Dwyer, travel with her new husband, Phil. She enrolls at Forks High School in the middle of her junior year. She does not notice the physical attraction she holds for the male students at the school, and makes a few new friends, including Jessica Stanley, Angela Weber, and Mike Newton, the latter of whom she later discovers is very interested in her.

After Edward and Bella begin dating, she tells him everything he wants to know about her, such as favorite color, books, or movies. On one occasion, Bella tells Edward her plan about teaching in high school, something inspired by her mother's profession in kindergarten.

While Bella is unconscious after James's attack, Edward meets her mother and notices two things: her blood smells sweeter than most; and she has a subtle gift for drawing people to her aid. He surmises it to be partially what made Bella into the responsible and mature person that she is.

Gollum is a fictional monstrous character from J. R. R. Tolkien's Middle-earth legendarium. He was introduced in the 1937 fantasy novel The Hobbit, and became important in its sequel, The Lord of the Rings. Gollum was a Stoor Hobbit of the River-folk who lived near the Gladden Fields. In The Lord of the Rings it is stated that he was originally known as Sméagol, he was corrupted by the One Ring and later named Gollum after his habit of making "a horrible swallowing noise in his throat".

Sméagol obtained the Ring by murdering his relative Déagol, who found it in the River Anduin. Gollum referred to the Ring as "my precious" or "precious", and it extended his life far beyond natural limits. Centuries of the Ring's influence twisted Gollum's body and mind, and, by the time of the novels, he "loved and hated [the Ring], as he loved and hated himself."

Gollum eventually left the Mountains and pursued Bilbo a few years later, but the trail was cold. He made his way south to Mordor where all evil was being drawn at the time, discovering the secret Stairs of Cirith Ungol located near Minas Morgul and surviving an encounter with Shelob. He was captured on his return, taken to the dungeons of Barad-dûr and forced to reveal to Sauron under intense torture what he knew about the Ring. Gollum was then freed, as Sauron had learned all he needed from him and sensed he might draw out the Ring. He was then subsequently caught by Aragorn, then interrogated by Gandalf, who placed him in the care of the Silvan Elves living in Thranduil's kingdom in Mirkwood. Assisted by Orcs he escaped them, and set off looking for the Shire. He passed through Moria, but could not make it out of the Doors of Durin. Seemingly he then just waited there until he got lucky when the Fellowship passed through. However, as Frodo was a ring-bearer he might have foreseen the passing of the ring. Alternatively, some of Saruman's or Sauron's spies may have revealed to him the Fellowship was heading towards Moria.

A lot of descriptions have been given to Gotham’s bat-shaped protector over the years: the Caped Crusader, the Dark Knight, or Batsy if you were to ask a certain Joker. At the end of The Dark Knight, James Gordon even says that Batman is “the hero Gotham City deserves.”

Gotham City is the home of Batman, and the Bat-Family place of residence was first identified as Gotham City in Batman #4 (Winter 1940).

In terms of atmosphere, Batman writer and editor Dennis O'Neil has said that, figuratively, "Batman's Gotham City is Manhattan below Fourteenth Street at eleven minutes past midnight on the coldest night in November."

Gotham City's atmosphere took on a lighter tone in the comics of the 1950s and part of the 1960s, similar to the tone of Batman stories of that era. However, by the early 1970s the tone of the city, as well as that of the stories, had become grittier. In recent decades, the portrayal of Gotham has been as a dark and foreboding place rife with crime, grime, and corruption.

Different artists have depicted Gotham in different ways. But they often base their interpretations on various real architectural periods and styles, with exaggerated characteristics, such as massively multi-tiered flying buttresses on cathedrals, or the huge Art Deco and Art Nouveau statuary seen in Tim Burton's movie version. Within the Batman mythos, the person cited as being influential in promoting the unique architecture of Gotham City during the pre-American Civil War era was Judge Solomon Wayne, Bruce Wayne's ancestor. His campaign to reform Gotham came to a head when he met a young architect named Cyrus Pinkney. Wayne commissioned Pinkney to design and to build the first "Gotham Style" structures in what became as the center of the city's financial district. The "Gotham Style" idea of the writers matches parts of the Gothic Revival in style and timing. In a 1992 storyline, a man obsessed with Pinkney's architecture blew up several Gotham buildings in order to reveal the Pinkney structures they had hidden; the editorial purpose behind this was to transform the city depicted in the comics to resemble the designs created by Nigel Phelps for the 1989 Batman film.

After "No Man's Land", Lex Luthor took the challenge of rebuilding Gotham City after the events of "Cataclysm". Gotham's old Art-deco and Gothic structures were replaced with modern glass skyscrapers and buildings.

He is also known as "Orion Pax". When placed under the control of Quintessa, he is dubbed Nemesis Prime (Also known as Evil Optimus).

He has appeared in all of Michael Bay's Transformers films as well as the reboot Bumblebee film, albeit he is completely redesigned in appearance. He was more of his G1 counterpart. His vehicle mode being a Freightliner fl86. Equipped with his signature ion blaster. Though it may be the only weapon we see in the movie, he does have many more. Along with his ending scene in Bumblebee, Optimus Prime had his trailer like in Transformers: Dark of the Moon.

When Megatron was corrupted by The Fallen and formed the Decepticons, Optimus rose up against him in a vicious war.

Near the end of the war, after the Ark, along with Sentinel Prime and the Autobots' last hope of winning the war, vanished into space, Optimus was forced to launch the AllSpark into deep space to keep it out of the hands of the Decepticons. Without the AllSpark, Cybertron was reduced to a barren wasteland, forcing Optimus, the Autobots, and the Decepticons to abandon their homeworld and flee across space.

The short answer is no. The two protagonists of the film, Jack and Rose, were fictional characters created for the movie. However, there was a J. Dawson present on the Titanic in real life. Director James Cameron had no idea that there was a real Dawson aboard the RMS Titanic when he created Jack Dawson, but surprisingly there are some similarities between the character and the real-life J. Dawson.

After the film's release, a simple gravesite in Canada marked "J. Dawson" became a hotspot for tourists, who left flowers and even movie pictures of Leonardo DiCaprio near the stone. After some research, it was discovered that the grave was actually for a 23-year-old Joseph Dawson, a young Irish Catholic man employed on the Titanic as a trimmer. J. Dawson was a penniless man from Dublin who sought out life at sea to make a livelihood. As a trimmer, J. Dawson would have worked in the stokehold, a room where coal was channeled to the men who fed the furnaces. Much like the fictional Jack Dawson who boarded the Titanic with fresh hopes of returning to America and found love aboard the ship, the non-fictional J. Dawson worked to maintain the Titanic while dreaming of his love back home. Unfortunately, also like Jack Dawson, J. Dawson lost his life on that cold morning in April, identified by the Union Card in his pocket.

Perhaps the real tragedy of J. Dawson is that his grave became a popular tourist attraction after the release of the film, which currently ranks third on the list of highest-grossing movies of all time, after Avatar (another Cameron mega-success) and Avengers: Endgame. However, people who visit the site are not necessarily remembering Joseph Dawson, the coal worker who went down with the ship. They mourn the pauper artist who once said, “Promise me you'll survive… Promise me now, Rose, and never let go of that promise.” A poor man with his whole life ahead of him who was taken by the sea with 1,500 others, J. Dawson reminds audiences that underneath the romance and tragedy of Jack and Rose, Titanic's tragedy claimed countless others who were not the work of fiction. Joseph Dawson may not have been Rose’s long lost love Jack Dawson, but he was as close to a real Jack as there will ever be. Titanic’s popularity unearthed his grave, an ocean away from his home in Ireland, and brought his memory back to the world of the living.

In the 1996 101 Dalmatians, Cruella de Vil wants Anita and Roger's Dalmatian puppies so she can skin them and sell their coats. Why puppies? Because their coats are softer, obviously. 2021's prequel, Cruella, serves to give the villain an origin story that explains why Cruella is so, well, cruel. But are puppies involved? Does she hate them? Cruella may have a complicated relationship with dogs, but she doesn't really hate them.

Cruella is an old school friend of Anita Radcliffe, and a glamor-obsessed heiress who claims that she cannot live without furs. She hires Horace and Jasper Badun, two incompetent crooks, to steal Pongo and Perdita's 15 Dalmatian puppies, and buys 84 more through legitimate means.

Unlike previous Disney villainesses, such as the Evil Queen, Lady Tremaine, the Queen of Hearts, and Maleficent, Cruella is not a schemer nor does she have any powers. Instead, she acts purely on impulse and is thus prone to reckless behavior, particularly tearing through the snowy landscape in her car. Unlike future versions of the character, this version of Cruella was seemingly invincible in the eyes of the Dalmatians, who, though they could just about be able to keep Jasper and Horace Badun at bay, were unable to face "that devil woman". Their only hope was therefore to flee; Cruella's defeat in the film is brought about not through the deeds of the animals, but her own stubborn relentlessness (which, by the end of the film, has seemingly degenerated into a mad fury) and the incompetence of her henchmen.

Babe is a 1995 comedy-drama film directed by Chris Noonan, produced by George Miller and written by both. It is an adaptation of Dick King-Smith's 1983 novel The Sheep-Pig, which tells the story of a farm pig who wants to do the work of a sheepdog. The film is narrated by Roscoe Lee Browne and the main animal characters are played by both real animals and animatronic puppets.

Babe is an adaptation of Dick King-Smith's 1983 novel The Sheep-Pig, also known as Babe: The Gallant Pig in the US, which tells the story of a pig raised as livestock who wants to do the work of a sheepdog. The main animal characters are played by a combination of real and animatronic pigs and Border Collies. 48 different pigs were used for the part of Babe.

After seven years of development, Babe was filmed in Robertson, New South Wales, Australia. The talking-animal visual effects were done by Rhythm & Hues Studios and Jim Henson's Creature Shop. The film was both a box office and critical success, grossing $254 million worldwide and earning seven Oscar nominations, including a win for Best Visual Effects.

According to actor James Cromwell, there was tension on the set between producer George Miller and director Chris Noonan. Noonan later complained, "I don't want to make a lifelong enemy of George Miller but I thought that he tried to take credit for Babe, tried to exclude me from any credit, and it made me very insecure... It was like your guru has told you that you are no good and that is really disconcerting."

Miller shot back, "Chris said something that is defamatory: that I took his name off the credits on internet sites, which is just absolutely untrue. You know, I'm sorry but I really have a lot more to do with my life than worry about that... when it comes to Babe, the vision was handed to Chris on a plate."

In 1998, a sequel directed by Miller, Babe: Pig in the City, was released. In 2006, a video game of the same name based on the film, was published by Mastertronic for the PlayStation 2. In January 2016, an online petition for the release of the director's cut of Babe: Pig in the City was made.

Dash has the power of super speed. However, due to his young age (10), he still has a lot of maturing to do and his powers will likely not manifest themselves in full until he reaches adulthood. He can run up to 30 meters a second and his top speed is just a tenth of the speed of sound.

This speed also extends to his reflexes, including his ability to hit someone at a rapid rate. However, unlike someone like Flash who can maximize those blows, his strikes are still normal for his height and weight -- just at a much more rapid pace. He also has enhanced durability and can rebound quickly from a collision.

Violet, the daughter of Mr. Incredible and Elastigirl, has incredibly powerful abilities, but they are slightly hindered by her insecurities and lack of confidence. In the first movie, she was held back by her fear of failure and needed saving at one point by her mother. In the second movie, it was her insecurities as a teenager that stopped her from fully excelling.

Her powers are almost the same as The Invisible Woman of the Fantastic Four, and she is a very powerful Marvel character. Violet has the power of invisibility and also can project force fields that are almost indestructible when she is fully concentrating. However, blunt force attacks can batter down her defenses over time.

American writer Suzanne Collins is the author of the best-selling 'The Hunger Games' series and 'The Underland Chronicles.'Suzanne Collins is an American author who published her debut book, Gregor the Overlander, the first of the five-part The Underland Chronicles, in 2003. In 2008, her first book of The Hunger Games series was published. The best-selling trilogy was adapted into a blockbuster film series starring Jennifer Lawrence as Katniss Everdeen.

While The Underland Chronicles made Collins a well-known author, it was her next series that ratcheted up her celebrity status. As Collins later recalled, The Hunger Games trilogy was born while she was watching television late one night. Flipping through the channels, Collins was suddenly struck by the lack of distinction between reality TV and coverage of the Iraq war: "We have so much programming coming at us all the time," she says. "Is it too much? Are we becoming desensitized to the entire experience? ... I can't believe a certain amount of that isn't happening."

The Hunger Games revolves around the series' rebel heroine, Katniss Everdeen, who lives in the post-apocalyptic nation of Panem, formerly known as North America. In Panem, the Hunger Games are an annual event in which young boys and girls fight to the death in a televised battle.

For Collins, The Hunger Games and her other books touch on the very subjects—necessary and unnecessary wars—that her own father often discussed with her. "If we introduce kids to these ideas earlier, we could get a dialogue about war going earlier and possibly it would lead to more solutions," she says. "I just feel it isn't discussed, not the way it should be. ... I know from my experience that we are quite capable of understanding things and processing them at an early age."

The series' first book, The Hunger Games, was released in 2008. Its two sequels, Catching Fire and Mockingjay, were published in 2009 and 2010, respectively. The series became a huge success, selling more than 100 million copies around the world.

The Muppet Movie is a 1979 musical road comedy film directed by James Frawley and produced by Jim Henson. The Muppet Movie is the first of a series of live-action musical feature films starring the Muppets. The film is a movie-in-a-movie, as we see Kermit the Frog and the rest of the Muppets gathering for the first screening of "The Muppet Movie." Kermit notes to his nephew Robin as the lights dim that the movie is a somewhat fictionalized account of the true story of how the Muppets first got together.

The movie was a critical and commercial success. In 2009, the film was selected by the U.S. National Film Preservation Board for preservation in the National Film Registry of the Library of Congress.

The Muppet Movie began filming on July 5, 1978, and proceeded over 87 days in the summer and fall of that year[2], during a production break partway through the taping of the third season of The Muppet Show (between Helen Reddy and Harry Belafonte). The film was scored by Paul Williams and Kenny Ascher, and their song "Rainbow Connection" received an Academy Award nomination. The movie is dedicated to ventriloquist Edgar Bergen, who made his final film appearance in this movie. In a 2004 interview, John Landis revealed that he was the puppeteer for Grover during the final sequence, as Frank Oz was busy operating Miss Piggy. Landis also noted that Tim Burton was also among the many puppeteers in the finale.

The Twilight Saga: New Moon is the second installment of the Twilight film series, based on Stephenie Meyer's novel of the same name. The film was released on November 20th, 2009.

Filming began on March 23, 2009, and ran until late May. Principal photography took place in Vancouver, Canada and Montepulciano, Tuscany, Italy.

On September 9, L.A. Times published more than 40 photos taken on the New Moon set. Some of them give a good impression of what the new film will look like.

Hiccup Horrendous Haddock III is the main protagonist of the DreamWorks animated How to Train Your Dragon franchise. He is the son of Valka and the late Hooligan chief, Stoick the Vast, thus making him the heir, and later, the chief of the tribe. He is 15 years old in the first film, Dragons: Riders of Berk and possibly 16 by the end of Dragons: Defenders of Berk, 18 to 20 years old in Dragons: Race to the Edge, 20 years old in How to Train Your Dragon 2, 21 years old in How to Train Your Dragon: The Hidden World, and 30 in the epilogue and Homecoming. His dragon and best friend, Toothless, is a Night Fury, the rarest and most intelligent of the dragon species.

By the end of the franchise, he marries Astrid Hofferson and they eventually have a daughter, Zephyr, and a son, Nuffink.

In the first film, Hiccup's appearance is very similar to his book counterpart. He is rather scrawny for his age, compared to the other Vikings, and isn't very tall, being around Astrid's height. He initially has little physical strength, as he has difficulty lifting a large standard battle axe handed to him by his father. He has bell-shaped auburn hair parting to his right with freckles on his cheeks and dull, green eyes. One of his more unique traits is a small, white scar just below his bottom lip on the right side of his chin, which he received as a baby the night Cloudjumper took his mother away, to the nest of the Bewilderbeast.

In the first film, he is usually seen wearing a long-sleeve, light-green woolen tunic with brown leather lacing at the neck and arms, a dark brown fur vest that matches his boots and dark greyish-green pants with lacing at the ankle. When he's working in the Blacksmith Shop, he removes his vest in favor of a beige smelting apron. When he rides Toothless, he takes off his vest and wears a leather flying harness that attaches to Toothless' saddle. After Dragon Training, he starts to wear a Viking helmet given to him by his father made from half of his mother's breastplate (Stoick owning and wearing the other half). Following the battle with the Red Death, Hiccup's left leg up to his shin was replaced with a metal prosthetic, constructed with a spring system and an adapter stirrup for flying with Toothless. This event deepened the connection between Hiccup and Toothless, both of them now have a prosthetic left appendage.

This event led to him meeting with Abin Sur and Starkaor's final act before perishing was choosing him as his replacement by providing him with his own Power Ring who deemed Sur as a worthy wielder of the weapon. With the final act done, the former Green Lantern of Space Sector 2814 died and Sur took over his duties by becoming a new member of the Green Lantern Corps who were charged as intergalactic protectors of the cosmos. After becoming a Green Lantern, Abin Sur vowed to seek out the tyrant Traitor and bring the supervillain to justice.
