Live-Action The Road to El Dorado

Sometimes, I try to bring non-Disney animated movies to life in live-action form. Today, I'll discuss my cast for DreamWorks Animation's The Road to El Dorado. It's about two con artists who get their hands on a map leading to the fabled city of gold, El Dorado, where they are mistaken for gods.



Oscar Isaac as Tulio











Chris Hemsworth as Miguel










Lupita Nyong'o as Chel













Antonio Banderas as Chief Tannabok









Benicio del Toro as Tzekel-Kan

    This is a superb cast for a movie. My favorite would definitely be Thor as Miguel! He has lots of experience pretending to be a God!

Hello, Toby Gold here and welcome to another Top 10 List. Today, I'm going to be counting down my Top 10 Movie Villains Who Had a Valid Point. For this list, I've chosen cinematic baddies who may be evil, but had understandable reasons for their actions. If you haven't seen the movie, I will issue a spoiler alert. You have been warned. So, let's begin. 10. John "Jigsaw" Kramer -- Saw  franchise (2004-present) In this brutal horror franchise, John Kramer is a former civil engineer who suffers from an inoperable frontal lobe tumour developing from colon cancer. After being diagnosed, he tried to end his suffering. However, he survived his suicide attempt with a newfound appreciation for life and a mission to teach others to appreciate their blessings. Unfortunately, his methods involve forcing people into deadly scenarios in which they must inflict harm upon themselves and/or others in order to survive. Unlike most serial killers in fiction, J...

Men in Black vs. Kingsman: The Secret Service

Image
Today, I have a cold, so I may not be in the game. When I first saw Kingsman: The Secret Service , I felt as if someone had dared Matthew Vaughn to make a British remake of Men in Black . This is why they are the same story. In 1997 ( MiB  takes place in that year;  Kingsman  opens in that year), an elderly spy (Agent D; Lee Unwin) exits the business (D decides he's too old for the job and asks his partner to erase his memory; Lee throws himself on a terrorist's grenade, saving his boss' life) after a standoff with a criminal in a dangerous region (the MiB agents intercept a truck full of illegal immigrants near the Mexican border, identifying a literal alien among them, who resists arrest and is killed by the agents; the Kingsman agents capture a terrorist in the Middle East, who tries to blow himself up while in custody). Later, a highly athletic street worker (James Darrell Edwards III/Agent J; Gary "Eggsy" Unwin) is arrested (Edwards is interviewed by a...

The Lion King (1994) vs. The Jungle Book (2016)

Image
When I first saw the 2016 remake of Disney's The Jungle Book , I thought of a classic Disney animated movie:  The Lion King , which is also getting a remake in 2019. So in honour of the upcoming 2018 gritty adaptation Mowgli , let me tell you why they are the same story. In the wilderness of a third-world country (Kenya; India), the young son (Simba; Mowgli) of a well-respected animal leader (Mufasa; Akela) lives a happy life with a tribe of predators (lions; wolves) until his life is threatened (Mufasa's younger brother, Scar, covets the throne and plots to kill Mufasa and Simba so he can be king; vicious tiger Shere Khan resents man for burning his face with a dangerous force known as "the Red Flower" and wants to kill Mowgli as a result) by a scarred feline (Scar; Shere Khan). When the villain becomes a genuine threat (Scar tricks Simba and his betrothed, Nala, into going to the elephants' graveyard, where they are attacked by a group of spotted hyenas in lea...
