Welcome back, everyone.
Today our lesson is called - How Was the Movie?
And Susie and Mark are trying to decide which movie they will see.
They don't know yet.
And sometimes we choose by what looks good.
Maybe the commercial for the movie looks good.
Sometimes we choose because the actors in it are good.
We like the people in the movie.
Now let's see what happens in Conversation C.
There are a lot of people here.
We should buy our tickets.
We should choose a movie to watch first.
Let's watch Cam Chang's drama.
I don't like dramas.
Let's watch an action movie.
OK. You win.
Oh, no!
That guy bought the last ticket.
Yay!
Now we can watch Cam Chang's movie, can't we?
Wow, Super Sentence Man usually helps us with our English, but he helped Susie
and Mark in a different way.
What? How did Super Sentence Man help them?
He bought the last ticket.
Well, yeah, and that helped them choose which movie to see.
Now they can only see the Cam Chang movie.
Hmm. I don't know if he was really helping, but that's true.
But now Mark is going to watch a movie he doesn't want to see.
Well, I'm not so sure.
He said that he does not like dramas, but it still has Cam Chang in it.
Oh, he's one of Mark's favorite actors.
So maybe Mark will like this drama.
But how can Mark have more than one favorite actor?
You can only have one favorite.
Well, if you say that something is your favorite, you like it the most.
But it's often very hard to choose one favorite.
I can't choose a favorite movie.
That's too hard.
Well, I can.
It's not too hard for me.
Dead Poet Society is my favorite.
OK. But you don't watch many movies, right?
But you read a lot of books.
So can you choose a favorite book?
Well, it is harder to choose my favorite book, but I still can.
My favorite book is A Tree Grows in...
OK, OK, OK. Well, you know what you like.
But how about your favorite food?
Favorite food...
OK. Now that's a hard one.
I see what you mean.
I would need to choose a few favorite foods.
See? Me, too.
I think most people would.
But most people can choose a favorite kind of movie.
Some people like action movies the most.
Other people like dramas the best.
Oh, and that's a special key word.
Christina told you what drama meant before, but not only movies are dramas.
Yes. There are dramas on TV.
And you can go see a drama on a stage, too.
And a true story that is exciting or makes you feel something strongly can also
be a drama.
So dramas can be very different.
But right now it's time for us to look back at all of our key words with some
review.
And the first one is...
film.

Let's watch a film on Saturday.

Right now let's keep reviewing.
We can go back and watch today's conversations again.
Hey, Susie.
Do you have plans for tonight?
Yes. I plan to see a movie.
There's a new theater at the mall.
How about you?
I don't have any plans.
I guess I'll just go home.
Why don't you see a movie with me?
It will be fun!
Sure!
That sounds great.
What film are you planning to watch?
I haven't decided.
Any ideas?
I want to see that new movie, The Car.
It looks good.
Who is in it?
It has Jessica Jenson in it.
She's a great actress.
She's very popular.
Cam Chang also has a new movie out.
He's one of my favorite actors!
Let's decide when we get to the theater.
We don't want to be too late.
You're right. Let's go.
There are a lot of people here.
We should buy our tickets.
We should choose a movie to watch first.
Let's watch Cam Chang's drama.
I don't like dramas.
Let's watch an action movie.
OK. You win.
Oh, no!
That guy bought the last ticket.
Yay! Now we can watch Cam Chang's movie, can't we?
(Music).
Hello, Ginger.
Hello, Monkey Man.
Hey, do you have plans for tonight?
Well, not really.
Hooray! Let's do something together!
OK, something together, like what?
Let's see a movie together.
Oh, sure!
That'll be fun.
Yeah. We can go to the mall.
Right. There's a new theater there.
A lot of people will go to the mall.
Let's hurry and buy tickets.
Well, we should choose a movie first.
How about an action movie?
How about a monkey movie?
A monkey movie? Like what?
Like Tarzan.
That's playing?
I hope so.
La, la...
What is that awful sound?
Hank, Hank, Hank! What are you doing?
I'm singing, Lee.
No, no... No!
That's not singing.
You need to warm up before you sing, like this.
(Background Noise).
There! See?
I see.
Yes. Well, we're finished warming up.
We can begin to...
We can start...
Now we should sing now...
I mean... I mean we can...
Oh! Lee, I need Super Sentence Man.
I am Super Sentence Man and the super sentence for today is:
Now someone can do something, can't they?
You want to say: Now we can sing, can't we?
Yes. Now we can sing, can't we?
Brilliant!
Now I always ask for people I help to give me their own super sentences.
Do you have one?
Yes.
They're on a boat.
Now they can fish, can't they?
Now they can fish, can't they?
Great.
What about you?
Uh... Oh. You ate your dinner.
Now you can have dessert, can't you?
Now you can have dessert, can't you?
These are super sentences.
Now I think you're ready to share your super sentence, aren't you?
Yes.
Lee, we finished warming up.
Now we can sing, can't we?
Yes! Let's begin.
(Background Noise).
And you should always remember, a super sentence every...
Will you two please... help me?
Oh, sure.
A super sentence every day will make your English great!
Now let's continue.
Sing with us, Super Sentence Man.
(Background Noise).
Well, now you can use all the key words and phrases you learned today, can't
you?
It might take some practice, but you can do it.
Yes.
Review with your magazine and watch our review show tomorrow.
That will help you remember everything.
Well, hey, maybe you will also hear some of the things we've learned today the
next time you go to a movie.
Movies are a great way to practice listening.
How much can you understand when you watch a movie in English?
Oh, well, that should be a fun way for you to practice.
Now this has been a lot of fun, too, but it's time for us to say goodbye.
Make sure you join us next time here on...
Let's Talk in English. Bye-bye.
(Music).
