Plot: In an alternative world, Lyra (Richards), a 12-year-old girl, starts out trying to rescue a friend who’s been kidnapped by a mysterious organization known as the Gobblers - and winds up on an epic quest to save not only her world, but ours as well. Based on the novel by Philip Pullman.

Plot: Down on the farm, the farmer thinks he’s in charge…but once he’s out of sight, the animals are the ones doing all the partying - especially Otis the cow (James). Despite warnings from the leader of the farm, Otis’ father Ben (Elliott), Otis wants to do nothing more than just have fun. But when Ben is no longer able to lead, will Otis be able to leave his partying ways behind and stand up for the others…or is this farm headed for chaos?

Plot: Young Johnny Blaze, a motorcycle stunt rider, sells his soul to the devil (Fonda). The deal goes sour, yet years later, the devil uses that soul to transform the now grown-up Johnny (Cage) into an eerie flame-encased spectre bent on doing the devil’s business - with Johnny turning back into his normal self by the light of the day. Now, Blaze’s new night persona must bring the devil’s own son Blackheart (Bentley) back to his father’s side…while his day self tries to reconcile with his long-lost girlfriend (Mendes).

Plot: Bruce (Bana) is a scientist. He’s got a girl he likes, Betty (Connelly). Life is going okay…until a gamma radiation accident at the lab changes all that. He should’ve been killed, but thanks to his father’s experimental testing when Bruce was a child, Bruce isn’t like everybody else - especially when he’s angry. Suddenly, his rage triggers his transformation into the unstoppable Hulk, a green-skinned monster who the military wants for itself. But can even they contain the power that is the Hulk?
