Clueless : Cher Horowitz, Josh, Tai, Dionne Davenport 2.
Wild Child : Poppy Moore, Freddie Kingsley, Mrs. Kingsley, Harriet Bentley |
Main
point of the story |
1.
Clueless Cher,
a high school student in Beverly Hills, must survive the ups and downs of
adolescent life. Her external demeanor at first seems superficial, but rather
it hides her wit, charm, and intelligence which help her to deal with
relationships, friends, family, school, and the all-important teenage social
life.
2.
Wild Child Since
Malibu brat Poppy Moore’s mom passed away, she has pushed her rich, usually
absent dad Gerry shamelessly. When his patience wears out, she’s shipped off
to her mother’s former English boarding school for girls, Abbey Mount. On her
first day she makes enemies of most dorm mates, especially dominant lacrosse
school captain Harriet, and the school’s principal Mrs. Kingsley. Unwilling
to accept the strict regime, she decides to misbehave and take the blame for
everyone until she’s dismissed. The school’s only appealing feature for her
is Kingsley’s dashing son Freddie. When the dream prince transfers his favor
from ambitious, uptight Harriet to unruly Poppy, that changes everything. |

Comment |
1.
The story is really interesting, I
also like it where Cher then finds her true self and also transforms into a
better person. This story also tells about friendship, love, also personal
growth, which is really good for me.
2.
A story that is so enjoyable and also carries good messages. I like the plot
where Poppy, who was initially naughty, then transforms into a good girl
after she manages to blend in and also find herself with her new friends. |
5. If you can exist on the story,
in what scene do you want to appear? And what will the story be?
Answer :
1. Clueless
I wanna be in the scene where Cher wanted
to help Miss Geist with the Donation for The Pismo Beach Disaster. Because it
will be fun to me to participate with them, and I also want to be one of Cher’s
friends. And the story not really changed.
2. Wild Child
I want to exist in the scene where
Poppy and her friends are going to shopping to find a costume for the party, or
in the scene that they’re playing lacrosse, I would like to play together with
them. Maybe the ending will be different, because I can’t play lacrosse at all,
and the team will be lose because of me.

Main
point of the story |
1.
Freaky Friday The
wide generation gap between Tess Coleman and her teenage daughter Anna is
more than evident. They simply cannot understand each other’s preferences. On
a Thursday night they have a big argument in a Chinese restaurant. Both
receive a fortune cookie each from the restaurant owner’s mother which causes
them to switch bodies next day. As they adjust with their new personalities,
they begin to understand each other more and eventually it’s the mutual
self-respect that sorts the things out.
2.
The Little Mermaid The
youngest of King Triton’s daughters, Ariel is a beautiful and spirited young
mermaid with a thirst for adventure. Longing to find out more about the world
beyond the sea, Ariel visits the surface and falls for the dashing Prince
Eric. Following her heart, she makes a deal with the evil sea witch, Ursula,
to experience life on land. |

Comment |
1.
The story is really unique, it’s also entertaining but has a deep meaning. This
story tells us the importance of understanding each other, and the importance
about friendship and family.
2.
The story is also really good, additionally, the film also emphasizes the
importance of communication and understanding, as Ariel learns the
consequences of making hasty decisions without considering their impact on
herself and those she cares about. |
5. If you can exist on the story,
in what scene do you want to appear? And what will the story be?
Answer :
1. Freaky Friday
I want to exist as Anna’s band mates,
and I want to appear in the scene where Anna is on the show with her band, even
though it was not Anna but her mother Tess. The story might be changed, because
when Anna’s behaviour is different, I will force Anna to tell what is going on,
and maybe help her with the problem. Then, Anna and her mother can swap their
bodies sooner.
2. The Little Mermaid
I want to exist as Ariel’s mermaid
friend, so maybe I can help her with her problems, or I can give her some
advice so there will not be a problem with her father King Triton. The story
wil change because Ariel and King Triton may be understanding each other.
