After all of his adventures, Shrek (Mike Myers) has become a domesticated family ogre. Instead of scaring villagers away as he used to, Shrek agrees to autograph pitchforks. Longing for the days when he felt like a "real ogre", Shrek is tricked into signing a pact with the smooth-talking deal maker, Rumpelstiltskin (Walt Dohrn). Shrek couldn't resist the offer; all he wanted was a day off to relax, to be a real ogre again, and Rumpelstiltskin said he would give Shrek one day where none of his adventures had ever happened and everything would be like it was before - all Shrek had to trade him to get a day off was one day from his own life. Then Rumpelstiltskin tricked Shrek and the day he took out of Shrek's life was the day that he was born—meaning that (since Shrek was never born) he never existed, thus creating a time paradox. Shrek finds himself in a alternate version of Far Far Away: Rumpelstiltskin is king; ogres are hunted to near-extinction; Donkey is an intellectual who has never met Shrek, is forced into cart-pulling duty and fears him; Gingy is a gladiator fighting animal crackers; Puss in Boots is fat and lazy; Fiona is a hunted ogre who never met (and can't stand) Shrek, and is the leader of a band of other hunted ogres. Artie (Justin Timberlake) has been forced to step down as ruler of Far Far Away. But if Shrek shares "True Love's Kiss" with Fiona by the sunrise of the next day, the true timeline will be restored---and Artie will be restored as to his rightful position as the only true heir to Far Far Away, but if Shrek does not make it, then by the time the day is up, Shrek will disappear (due to him never being born), and Rumpelstiltskin has sent out an army of witches to stop him.

It is the third installment in the Toy Story series and is scheduled for release on June 18, 2010, in the United States and July 23, 2010 in the United Kingdom. Lee Unkrich, who edited the previous films and co-directed the second, takes over as director.
Hiccup (Jay Baruchel), is the son of the Chief, Stoick the Vast (Gerard Butler), on the island of Berk. Hiccups village is constantly plagued by “pests” in the form of various dragons, who raid the village and steal their stock of sheep. Hiccup, unable to combat the dragons instead works as an apprentice to iron smith, Gobber the Belch (Craig Ferguson).
One night during a dragon raid, Hiccup pulls out a launching contraption in an attempt to prove himself and kill the never-before-seen Night Fury dragon. He hits it, but nobody else in the village is around to see it. Attempting to get proof, Hiccup travels into the forest where the dragon may have fallen. He comes to a small canyon and sees the elusive Night Fury, tangled in his net. After struggling with himself, Hiccup can’t bring himself to kill the helpless dragon and sets him free. The dragon immediately pounces on Hiccup, aggressively sizing him up, then flees.
Back at the village, Stoick, with the insistence of Gobber enrolls Hiccup into dragon fighting class with the other Viking youth of age: Astrid (America Ferrera), Snotlout (Jonah Hill), Fishlegs (Christopher Mintz-Plasse), and the twins Tuffnut and Ruffnut(a boy and a girl) (T. J. Miller and Kristen Wiig). Meanwhile Stoic leaves with a search party of Vikings to find the Dragon’s Nest, in order to wipe them out and finish the apparent war. The first day of dragon training goes as expected for Hiccup, he’s outmatched and lacking confidence. After being told that dragons are vicious and always go for the “kill shot”, Hiccup curiously returns to the canyon. The Night Fury, still inexplicably trapped in the canyon again allows Hiccup to watch him. Hiccup then notices that the dragon is missing a tail wing from the previous crash landing, leaving him unable to fly properly.
After realizing that he can befriend the dragon by giving him fish, Hiccup decides to start observing Toothless. Hiccup eventually fashions an artificial tail wing with a saddle, enabling Toothless to fly, but only with Hiccups aid. Meanwhile, back in Hiccup's dragon fighting classes, Hiccup begins to have great success. Using the observations from Toothless, Hiccup manages to have superior control over every dragon in training to the amazement of everyone and the chagrin of Astrid who becomes immediately suspicious. Meanwhile, Astrid begins to get jealous of Hiccup's success and suspicious of his escapes into the forest to see Toothless.
When Stoick and his army return they are bruised and battered, coming back with only one ship, nowhere close to having found the nest. His spirits are lifted however, when Gobber and others begind congratulating him on Hiccup's success in dragon training. Feeling a chance to bond with his son, Stoick happily honors Hiccup with his own Viking helmet (made from the other half of his mothers breastplace, Stoick has the other). Since Hiccup is in good standing to be the top of the class and have the honor of slaying a dragon, he begins to feel torn for his friendship with Toothless and the chance to make his father proud.
Hiccup crumbles to the pressure and decides to leave Berk with Toothless. Astrid follows him to their hideout and discovers Hiccup's friendship with the dragon. She tries to run back to the village, but Toothless kidnaps her and Hiccup asks for a chance to explain. They take her for a ride and Astrid begins to see how amazing dragons really are as well as Hiccup's extraordinary talents. During their flight, they get caught in a herd of dragons carrying food and follow them to their nest. There, they discover that the dragons steal food to feed a much larger and more threatening dragon that eats them if they do not provide enough food. After they leave, Astrid wants to inform the village of the nest's location, but Hiccup decides against it in order to protect Toothless and Astrid agrees to keep quiet.
The next day, during Hiccup's battle with the Nightmare, he throws down his weapons, saying he's not one of them and tries to show everyone that dragons are not as bad as they seem. Stoick shouts to stop the battle before Hiccup can continue, and the Nightmare attacks Hiccup in reaction to Stoick's rage. Meanwhile, Toothless hears Hiccup scream from his hiding place on the island and races off to Berk to save him. Just before the Nightmare can finish Hiccup off, Toothless comes in and defeats the Nightmare.
Hiccup pleads Toothless to flee, but he ignores him, fearing that the other Vikings pose a threat to Hiccup. Toothless almost kills Stoick, but Hiccup begs him to stop, and Toothless immediately becomes more docile. In this peaceful state, Toothless is quickly overpowered and captured. Stoick confronts his son angrily at learning about his son's friendship with a dragon. Hiccup accidentally tells him that he has been to the nest, and Stoick decides to use Toothless to lead them there. Hiccup begs him not to hurt Toothless and warns them of the giant dragon that they likely stand no chance against, but Stoick ignores him.
The Vikings set sail with Toothless chained. Back at Berk, Astrid comforts Hiccup and asks him what he is going to do. Hiccup decides to use the dragons that the Vikings use for dragon fighting practice to fly to the nest. Meanwhile, Astrid has gathered Tuffnut, Ruffnut, Fishlegs and Snotlout to help. Each mount on the dragons and set off after the Vikings.
As the other Vkings arrive, they prepare for battle, but all the dragons flee the island. Stoick discovers the even bigger dragon, Seadragonus Giganticus Maximus, which sets all of the boats on fire, including the one Toothless is chained up on. Hiccup and the others arrive, and while he goes to free Toothless, the others try to learn of any blind spots or shot limits of the giant dragon. The boat collapses and Toothless sinks, still chained. Hiccup tries to free him but nearly drowns. Stoick saves his son and jumps back in to save Toothless. Hiccup and Toothless then lead the giant dragon into the air and shoot at its wings. They then dive into the ground and set fire to the dragon's insides. The giant dragon tries to pull up, but the shots fired previously have torn holes in his wings, sending him crashing into the ground and exploding in a thunderous inferno. After crashing into the bigger dragon's tail, Hiccup is knocked out and falls off Toothless and into the fire. Toothless dives in to save him, despite his saddle damaged and artificial tail destroyed. Stoick searches the rubble for his son and only finds Toothless. At first everyone thinks Hiccup died in the fire but Toothless reveals that he had wrapped Hiccup up in his wings to shield him.
Hiccup reawakens in his home and finds Toothless by his bedside. He also finds that his left foot had been lost in the battle with the giant dragon, replaced with a spring loaded prosthetic by Gobber using the boy's designs. With Toothless' help, Hiccup slowly makes his way outside and sees that Vikings have invited dragons into the village and are constructing shelters and giant feeding bowls for them. Everyone welcomes Hiccup back as a hero. Astrid then appears and kisses Hiccup. Hiccup is then given new equipment for Toothless built by Gobber. Hiccup and Astrid ride their dragons through the newly reformed Berk as the alliance between the Vikings and dragons begins.
Susan Murphy (Reese Witherspoon) is hit by a radioactive meteor on the day of her wedding to weatherman Derek Dietl (Paul Rudd), absorbing a substance called quantonium and growing into a giantess. Alerted to the meteor crash, the military arrive and capture Susan. She is labeled a monster, renamed "Ginormica", and sent to a top-secret facility containing other monsters: B.O.B. (Seth Rogen), a brainless, indestructible gelatinous blob; Dr. Cockroach, Ph.D. (Hugh Laurie), a mad scientist with the head and abilities of a cockroach; the Missing Link (Will Arnett), an amphibious fish-ape hybrid; and Insectosaurus, a colossal grub that is even larger than Susan. The monsters are forbidden to have any contact with the outside world; while the other monsters have been living contentedly with this lifestyle for the past 50 years, Susan feels incredibly isolated and immediately misses her family, friends, and fiancé.
An alien named Gallaxhar (Rainn Wilson) detects the quantonium radiation emanating from Earth and deploys a gigantic robotic probe to find it and extract it from its source, Susan. After a botched attempt by the President of the United States (Stephen Colbert) to make first contact with the robot, it begins destroying everything in sight. General W.R. Monger (Kiefer Sutherland), head of the monster-containment facility, convinces the President to use the monsters to fight the robot. The monsters accept the mission with the promise of freedom if they succeed. Arriving in San Francisco, Susan is chased by the robot across the city to the Golden Gate Bridge, where the monsters are able to defeat the robot.
Now free, Susan reunites with her family and introduces them to the monsters, who are dejected after innocently causing a panicked ruckus. She meets up with Derek but he breaks up with her to prevent her from overshadowing his career. Heartbroken, Susan meets up with the other monsters when she is abducted by Gallaxhar, who kills Insectosaurus when he tries to save her. After being chased around the ship by Susan, Gallaxhar extracts the quantonium from her body, returning her to her normal size. He then proceeds to clone himself into an army so he can invade Earth.
B.O.B., the Missing Link and Dr. Cockroach infiltrate Gallaxhar's ship and rescue Susan. The monsters flee into the ship's power core where they hack into the control system and activate the ship's self-destruct sequence. Susan escapes but the other three are trapped. Susan confronts Gallaxhar, who tries to escape with the quantonium, and attempts to force him into releasing her friends. When Gallaxhar says he cannot reverse the sequence, Susan takes the quantonium back and absorbs it, restoring her to her gargantuan size and allowing her to save her friends. The monsters leap out of the exploding ship and are rescued by General Monger on the back of the newly-revived Insectosaurus, who had sealed his own body in a cocoon and transformed into a flying butterfly-like form.
The monster team receives a hero's welcome upon their return. Derek attempts to get back with Susan for the sake of interviewing her that could benefit his career; insulted, Susan publicly humiliates him instead, declaring her place is with her monster friends. At that moment, the team is alerted to a monster attack near Paris and set off to combat the new menace.
The film revolves three chief characters, Hikaru Ichijyo (a hot-shot pilot), coquettish pop-star Lynn Minmay and the Fortress' first mate Misa Hayase. This story is framed by a war between humans and the alien Zentradi over possession of the space fortress Macross, which harbors tens of thousands of human civilians from Macross City. Crew and civilians know Earth was attacked but do not know the fate of the humans on Earth. However, it is revealed that the all-male Zentradi are fighting a war against their female counterparts: the Meltlandi; both genders, bred for war, are eventually stricken by their contact with Protoculture (human culture), particularly due to music and love.
Do You Remember love? begins in media res with the SDF-Macross trying to evade the Zentradi at the edge of the solar system. The Space Fortress houses an entire city with tens of thousands of civilians who are cut off from Earth. During the latest assault, Valkrie pilot Ichijo Hikaru rescues pop idol Lynn Minmei. This fateful meeting leads to a relationship between the singer and her #1 fan.
The Zentradi, meanwhile discover the debilitating and disruptive effect music has on the rank and file troops. Troubled by this, they capture Minmei, her cousin Kaifun, Roy Fokker, Hikaru and Hayase Misa. During an attack by the Meltrandi, Misa and Hikaru escape only to fold accidentally to a desolate world that turns out to be the Earth. As the two officers walk the blasted landscape of the now-desolate Earth they become closer. They also discover an ancient city of the Protoculture where the mysterious origins of the alien giants is revealed.
As the two galactic armies converge on the Macross, the conflict threatens to obliterate what's left of humanity whose only hope lies a song discovered by Misa and sung by Minmei.
Coraline Jones moves into the Pink Palace Apartments in Ashland, Oregon with her loving but work-consumed parents . While exploring the nearby forest, Coraline encounters a stray black cat and a boy who tends it, Wybie Lovat. She also befriends long-retired actresses Miss Spink and Miss Forcible, and an acrobat named Mr. Bobinsky.
While exploring her apartment complex, Coraline finds a small door closed by bricks. Awakened that night by a button-eyed "jumping mouse," she follows it to discover a passage extending beyond the miniature door, which leads her to an alternate version of the house grounds called the "Other World." Upon arrival therein, Coraline meets button-eyed doppelgangers of her mother and father, who claim to be her "Other" parents. These figures guide her to a more luxurious and attractive version of the house and its surroundings. The Other Mother and Father celebrate her presence with delicious food, a beautiful, enchanted garden, and the affection Coraline feels she is missing in her own world.
Coraline continues visiting the Other World, where she is entertained by the "Other" versions of Wybie and the neighbors. The black cat, who can speak when in the Other World, informs Coraline that the Other Mother and her world are a trap set to entice children who believe themselves neglected. Coraline refuses to believe this until the Other Mother offers for her to stay in the Other World if she will sew buttons over her eyes. Coraline demands to return to her real parents, angering the Other Mother into assuming a wretched, gangly form and trapping her in a small room behind a mirror as punishment. There she finds three ghost children who previously fell into the hands of the Other Mother and lost their eyes and souls to her.
With the help of the Other Wybie, Coraline escapes to her own world, only to find her real parents kidnapped by the Other Mother. Aided by the black cat and a seeing stone given to her by Spink and Forcible, Coraline returns to the Other World seeking to free her parents and the ghost children by challenging the Other Mother to a game. One by one, she finds the children's "eyes" (or rather their souls) and destroys the inhabitants of the Other World guarding them. She also finds her parents and tricks the Other Mother into opening the door to her own world, deliberately claiming that they are behind it, to make her escape, closing the door on, and severing, the Other Mother's hand.
Though her parents are safe (with no memory of the incident) and the ghost children have moved on to the afterlife, Coraline's task is not done. Coraline realizes that the Other Mother will try to enter her world to reclaim her, and goes to drop the only key to the door connecting their worlds down a well on the premises. The Other Mother's severed hand enters Coraline's world and attempts to retrieve the key, but it is destroyed by Coraline and Wybie and dropped down the well with the key. Having rid the world of the Other Mother, Coraline has a gardening party with her parents and neighbors.
Set in futuristic Metro City, Astro Boy is a young robot with incredible powers created by a brilliant scientist in the image of the son he has lost. Unable to fulfill the grieving man's expectations, Astro Boy embarks on a journey in search of acceptance, experiencing betrayal and a netherworld of robot gladiators, before he returns to save Metro City and reconcile with the father who had rejected him.
The opening scene of the movie shows Naruto fighting a monster, only to be killed by it. The setting then goes back to a few days previous, where a man named Yomi (the word meaning the Japanese underworld) attacks a shrine to retrieve the spirit of Mouryō, a demon who attempted to take over the world and create his "Thousand Year Kingdom". Since he is lacking a body, Yomi offers his as a temporary substitute until they can retrieve Mouryō's original one.
The only threat to Mouryō's plan is a priestess known as Shion, who can seal his spirit away once more. He raises a stone army from their slumber to attack the rest of the world while his four subordinates go to kill Shion. They are given special chakra creatures to enhance their strength.
To deal with the threat, Konohagakure sends out many advance teams to stall the stone army. Naruto Uzumaki, Sakura Haruno, Neji Hyuga and Rock Lee are sent to guard Shion and deliver her to the shrine where Mouryō's body is kept. They fend off her four would-be assassins, who exhaust themselves in a failed attempt to kill Naruto. Shion tells Naruto of his upcoming death; while initially skeptical, her assistant Taruho explains that Shion can see the future, and all 100 predictions she has made have come true. As they head for the shrine, the group is ambushed once again and split into two teams. Lee kills one of his opponents by eating an alcoholic candy to get him into Drunken Fist, while Naruto is kept busy by his. Neji tells Sakura to escape with Shion, unaware that his two opponents are actually just one man and a puppet. Sakura is disabled by the remaining ninja and Shion is killed.
This turns out to be a ruse: the dead "Shion" is actually Taruho, who transformed himself into a copy of Shion to trick them into thinking they killed the real one. Shion explains that her power works by allowing her spirit to jump back in time at the moment of her death, thereby allowing her to avoid it by having someone die in her place. Naruto insists that he will not die, and likewise will keep Shion safe.
Thanks to Lee, Neji realizes that the remaining three ninja must keep replenishing their chakra to battle effectively. Naruto is sent on ahead with Shion, while Sakura and Lee trick their opponents into wasting their chakra on futile attacks. When it comes time to replenish their chakra, Neji disables the final ninja, who was providing it, leaving the other two powerless against Lee and Sakura.
At the mountain temple where Mouryō's body is kept, Naruto and Shion find the stone army waiting. Naruto holds the army back while Shion heads inside to begin the sealing ritual. Yomi is already inside, and tricks Shion into beginning the technique with him inside the barrier, allowing Mouryō's spirit to reunite with his body. Naruto comes to rescue her. About to see her prediction of his death come true, she uses her power to change Naruto's fate, intending to kill herself and Mouryō to save him. Naruto stops her seconds before her death, and uses Naruto-Shion Super Chakra Rasengan with both their chakra to destroy Mouryou. With Mouryō gone, Naruto asks Shion what she intends to do now. She replies that Mouryō was a demon caused by the dark thoughts of men, and that there is bound to be another Mouryō someday. Because of this, she says that she must continue the line of priestesses that will suppress demons like Mouryō. Then she asks Naruto if he will help (indirectly asking if he will father her child), which an ignorant Naruto happily agrees to.
