Dear Producer of Universal Productions

My reading language arts class read and watched Island of the Blue Dolphins, and we noticed that there were major issues to the movie. Also this movie was made 50 years ago so this would make sense to make the movie again. If you you don’t believe do the math, what’s 2014 minus 1964, 50 right. So I believe that the Island of the Blue Dolphins movie should be remade.

My first reason is that this book is about Karana a girl who survives on an island by herself, and survival is a popular theme nowadays. Here is an example Hunger Games, a multi million dollar movie. Another example, Survivor the tv show. Best thing yet this is a true story and people love true stories. So you got lucky, a true story and a survival theme movie I mean what else could be that amazing.

Reason number two, we have modern technology. We can add sound effects to help with fights. Also, you won’t have to pay a lot of money to travel to a lot of places you can just put in a green screen. One of the major problems in the movie was the make up. Karana didn’t look like she was Native American, so I think you can fix that. Another problem is the lighting sometimes the screen is too bright or sometimes it is too dim and you can’t see what's happening.

Last but not least, my final reason. The movie needs more realistic and graphic parts. Like more blood because when Chief Chowig got shot, he just covered his chest and fell down. Also when Rontu gets hit in the chest, there were no blood except the time when Karana took out the arrow. In the book this is how Karana explained how Rontu looked like “ he had the broken arrow in his chest and he was lying with one of his legs under him.” The only parts with blood in the movie was when Rontu fought the dogs and the arrow, that's it. The movie also need’s more violence. Also, slow motion is a big problem in the movie. And the only problem is that there is no slow motion. There’s fast motion’s but no slow motion.

Some people may think that this is a waste of time, making the same old movie again 50 years later, but this movie will come out and those kids will be wrong. If you listen to my three reasons you could be part of the multi millionaire movie group. So think about it, think positive, like Oscars or Golden Globes. Universal I think your company can change if you remake this movie.

Sincerely, Hugo G.
