China Film Day in Edinburgh Aims to Enhance Knowledge about China
A China Film Day was held in Scotland's capital with the aim to let local people know more about China through film.
The two Chinese films screened at Filmhouse near the West End of the city center were "Go Away Mr. Tumor", a romantic comedy telling how an optimistic woman copes with cancer, and "To The Fore", a sports drama film jointly produced by Hong Kong and the Chinese mainland.
Both films were selected as the entries for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 88th Academy Awards from the Chinese mainland and Hong Kong respectively.
Chinese Consul General in Edinburgh Pan Xinchun says the first event of this kind will help promote the relationship between the China and Scotland as well as open "a window or door" for Scottish friends to learn more about modern China through such films.
"Star Wars: The Force Awakens"Brings down Ticket Booking Sites
The final version of "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" trailer has been released.
It reveals important story elements as well as the Stormtroopers, TIE-Fighters, R2-D2 and Princess Leia Organa.
The two-and-a-half minute trailer quickly attracted more than 17 thousand tweets per minute and was viewed on YouTube more than 220,000 times within the first 20 minutes.
First tickets for "Star Wars: The Force Awakens" were also released in the U.K. Monday morning and in the U.S Monday night, two months before the movie premiere.
Actress Zoe Saldana, who co-stars in her own sci-fi franchise, "Guardians of the Galaxy", is one of those who's on their top excitement about the film.
"Are you kidding me? It's bleeping 'Star Wars.' Yes. I'm having a hard time stopping myself from e-mailing J.J. (director J.J. Abrams) and going, 'Dude, like, we worked together. Can do you do me a solid and hold two tickets for me?' I'm excited. I can't wait to see it."
The excitement soon gave way to frustration, after huge demand for the tickets caused the online booking systems of most major movie theaters to collapse.
New Mockingjay 2 Trailer and Poster Released
A Chinese trailer and poster of "The Hunger Games: Mockingjay — Part 2" has been released today.
The movie is set to hit Chinese theater in both 3D and 2D on Nov. 20th, simultaneous with a worldwide release.
In the final chapter, Katniss teams up with a group of her closest friends, including Gale, Finnick and Peeta, and goes off on a mission with the unit from District 13 as they risk their lives to liberate the citizens of Panem. They also stage an assassination attempt on President Snow who has become increasingly obsessed with destroying Katniss.
The mortal traps, enemies, and moral choices that await Katniss will challenge her more than any arena she faced in The Hunger Games.
