For super-dog Bolt (voice of JOHN TRAVOLTA), every day is filled with adventure, danger and intrigue—at least until the cameras stop rolling. When the star of a hit TV show is accidentally shipped from his Hollywood soundstage to New York City, he begins his biggest adventure yet—a cross-country journey through the real world to get back to his owner and co-star, Penny (voice of MILEY CYRUS). Armed only with the delusions that all his amazing feats and powers are real, and the help of two unlikely traveling companions—a jaded, abandoned housecat named Mittens (voice of SUSIE ESSMAN) and a TV-obsessed hamster named Rhino (voice of MARK WALTON) -- Bolt discovers he doesn’t need superpowers to be a hero. --© Walt Disney Pictures

This year 45th Golden Horse Film Festival and Awards/第45屆金馬獎 take place on 2008-12-06, 7pm at 台中市中山堂. This is a big ceremony for Chinese movie films.

So, i watched and realise that I'm so outdated. =.= Many movies I didn't even know but there are a few which I notice it last time but didn't went to watch it. 3 movie films caught my eyes and I wanted to watched it.

《The Warlords/投名狀》,《Assembly/集結號》,《Cape No.7/海角七號》. I like to watched CG(computer graphics) movie as the graphic is fill with explosive scenes and impressive effect so 《The Warlords/投名狀》,《Assembly/集結號》 definitely caught my eyes. As for 《Cape No.7/海角七號》, this movie has become so popular in Taiwan that on November 1, 2008 it became the 2nd top grossing film in the island's cinematic history, behind Titanic.

According to Chinese Wikipedia,

• 本屆金馬獎的入圍名單於2008年10月30日公佈，報名日期則為8月15日至9月8日。

• 《投名狀》、《海角七號》、《集結號》分別以12、9、6項提名成為入圍最大贏家，而且也是罕見港、台、中三地對決的場面。

• 年度台灣傑出電影工作者獎項分面，原入圍者分別為魏德聖、李龍禹、金城武，但由於金城武在出生後從未入過中華民國國籍，電影公司為其報名時並未察覺，經金馬獎委員會審查後確定撤銷入圍資格[1][2]。
