Pigeon Impossible

Pigeon Impossible

WALT write a movie review

There is a short animation created by Martell Animations called ‘Pigeon Impossible’. The animation is inspired by other famous spy movies like James Bond & Mission Impossible.

It is based in Washington DC with a spy in a black & white tuxedo & sunglasses getting handed a silver briefcase.

He sits down on a dark green wooden bench eating a bagel and opens the case by pressing down with his thumb. Then a pigeon appears wanting the bagel but accidently gets stuck inside the briefcase. He tries to control it, causing a lot of trauma.

I quite liked the part where the pigeon was trying to control the briefcase and the laser beam just missed the spy by a few centimeters. It was pretty funny that the red light was just a result of the strange pigeon pecking at the controls inside the briefcase.

As the story goes on it seems like the pigeon knew how to control it. How did the pigeon know how to control a briefcase? After all, he was supposed to be a pigeon! He could shoot laser beams and a lot of other stuff that a pigeon should not know how to do! I thought that was weird and wrong!

I also didn’t like all the characters in this film. The man had a strange face shape and a tiny mouth which made him look weird when he ate while the pigeon looked more like a tui & also had me puzzled on it’s gender. I found them really quite weird.

Overall I didn't like this movie and I would recommend not wasting your time watching it. I give it 1 and a half stars out of 5 because the whole scenario was pointless as it could have been avoided completely. So rather than entertaining me it just frustrated me.

EOTC Recount

Long bay hike                

A fairly sized handful of students from rm7 & rm9 were crowded around Mrs Milne as they chattered away at Long Bay Beach. This was part of EOTC which for some was probably the most exciting day of the whole school year! We were just about to walk the Long Bay hike and we were all bursting with excitement to start! EOTC was to explore the outdoors so everything last week was pretty different compared to a normal school day.

Before we left for the hike Mrs Milne handed out checklists. We had to

take photos of things that we saw on the way with the ipad we were

Given and tick it after the photo was taken. We were in groups of four

with an adult each, in my group was Eliza, Elizabeth, Vivienne & me &

our parent was the one and only Mrs Milne! Personally, I was really

excited to see pukekos, a bird native to New Zealand and they were on

our list! I got Eliza to take a photo & I ticked them off our list. Then

we started looking for other things such as Vaughan house,

Rangitoto island, Tiritiri island, stock gates, Granny’s bay, a view of

Long Bay & a few other things. Vaughan house seemed very out

dated but it was built hundreds of years ago so I wasn’t very

surprised. We didn’t really travel to either Rangitoto Island or

Tiritiri island either, we just saw the view and took a Photo. When we got to Granny’s bay I couldn’t believe my eyes! It was so very pretty! I

heard the soft, calm waves, I smelt the salty sea. In fact the sea was

so salty that I could almost taste it! I felt the the golden sand flowing

through my fingertips, I thought that the fresh air was very soothing &

as I stood up to pose for photos, I felt calm & relaxed. After we had

Taken our photos, I said to Anita, this beach is beautiful, she

                                     agreed with me.
