This is just a game to test people's movie knowledge and let everyone share movies they have enjoyed in the past with others - So I hope you enjoy this one.

All you need to do for this game is briefly describe the pot of the movie in your own words, whilst providing minor clues.
So in your description, speak of the main character and what their aim is in that particular movie, for example:

In the year where technology had reached its peak for humankind, he was 'created' to fill that bond that only humans can have; that of mother and child. Even though he experiences difficulties along the way with being the first of his kind, his determination to become a 'real boy' takes him on a quest to a place unkown to him...

the second person would then try and figure out who the character is and name the movie. (the name of the actor is not reall y necesary, but if known can be added as well).
so in response for example, the answer would be:

David (Haley Osment) as the child robot in A.I (Artificial Intellegence)


SO to get started, I have this one (let me know if you require more clues)

His story of 'discovery' holds a place in American history, the events that take place in the film come directly from his diaries. In the time of 'English colonisation of North America', he is an explorer set to discover 'new land'. He 'befriends' the princess from an Indian tribe and developes a romatic relationship. Soon enough she is introduced to his 'world' and learns of his culture...

Can you guess who he is and the name of the movie his story takes place in?

This sounds like the story of Pocahontas who married John Rolfe.

I guess you've mistaken carbonite for cryptonite m'dear Only then it could bear some resemblance to "Superman'...
Upon the authority of meh Greygoat I announce S.P.E.C.T.R.E the winner on this one - the quote comes from "The Empire Strikes Back"

well guessed grey goat - it was the Pocahontas story - The New World (lovely movie if you haven't seen it)

and now...

An undercover agent takes the physical appearance of an assumed dead terrorist. The terrorist was only in a coma, and he takes the form of the undercover agent.
