Plaza Ñuñoa

My favorite neighbourhood in Santiago is Plaza Ñuñoa, because you have a lot of things you can do. Plaza Ñuñoa is in Irarrazabal between George Washington and Manuel Plaza, in the centre of Ñuñoa.


In Plaza Ñuñoa there are lots of pubs and restaurant with different kind of food, you can eat Italian food, sushi, sandwich, and you can try artisanal beer and also you can listen to a live music.


Also it is a good place to go with kids, because there are games for children and you can ride your bike. And there sell really tasty ice creams.

So, you have a lot of entertainment.
To go to Plaza Ñuñoa you can go by bus (for Irarrazabal) or by car.

"Sky High" by Carolina Ocares

Sky High was directed by Mike Mitchell tell the story of Will Stronghold (Michael Angarano) son of the most important super heroes Steve and Josie Stronghold (Kut Russel and Kelly Preston) and his firsts days at High School for heroes.



Will doesn’t have super power so he has to study with the “Sidekicks”, and he get on well with them, they are like the looser of the school because their power aren’t useful. In the meanwhile he fell in love of the most popular girl at the school, Gwen.

One day a guy, whose father was captured by his parents ,start to attack him, and suddenly Will become super strong and he started studying with the “Heroes” (the popular students).

On the day of the dance Gwen reveals as “Royal Pain”, a villain who convert the heroes in babies, but Will and his friends, the Sidekicks, save the heroes and beat Gwen.

I recommended “Sky High” to enjoy it in family, it is a really entertaiment movie.

movie review ... Gerardo


I tried to use another movie … but I couldn’t. my review is going to be about… THE DARK KNIGTH (BATMAN)



The movie was set in 2008. The director was Christopher Nolan (who directed also batman begins, inception and memento) it was starring for Christian Bale (Bruce Wayne), Heath Ledger (The Joker) and Aaron Eckhart (Harvey Dent / two faces).






The movie takes place almost a year later from the previous movie (Batman begins). The crime landlords are terrified of batman at the point to make their meetings during the day. Bruce Wayne is trying to get his life back in the meanwhile Rachel Daws (Bruce Wayne beloved) found a new love with the new District Attorney Harvey Dent, this start a conflict between the dark knight and the bright knight. On the other hand a maniac who calls himself The Joker wants to make burn Gotham City pushing the people to the edge of the rationality.

 

The film was road on Los Angeles. had 8 nominations for the Oscar’s 2009, finally they won 2. One of the remarkable situations of this film is the dead of Heath Ledger who dies a couple of months before the premiere of The Dark Knight. Some movie journalist agree to say, this joker is certainly the real of the comic book, some even says “is better than Jack Nicholson’s Joker”. In my opinion is great and because him the hype for the next movie is really high the fans are expecting something better in honor to the Ledger Joker.
