Since it's already past 3 a.m. and I still have not started spanish homework, I am going to blog. I had several topics in mind, including bad movies, Chuck, AP tests, class officer elections, senior year, etc, but I haven't decided what I will write about today.
Let's see......
I found out that I am the only senior in both of Esquivel's spanish classes. So he now has to write an examen final especial just because of me. Hah sucka, that's what you get for my shitty year of spanish. "You can take your flag, your job and shove it." "Ditto." I love Chuck so much - best show hands down. Maybe after Friends.
I'm supposed to write and memorize this paper thing and draw something for spanish. As I do not speak/read/write in spanish, nor do I draw, I find this project impossible to complete, let alone begin.
I hate bubble shooter and I have decided that I will talk about bad movies.
1. If you kill off the main character at the end of your movie, you better have a damn good reason for doing so. Why was it necessary to kill off Rory in Rory O'Shea Was Here and Marley in Marley & Me? I think both movies could have found much, much better endings that freaking include the main character.
2. Science Fiction genre just fails in general. I don't care whether it's got anacondas, extra-terrestrial creatures, giant apes, water creatures, etc, or a combination of these. It's not that I don't enjoy this particular genre; I've watched countless Sci-Fi movies with my dad when all he ever watched was the Sci-Fi channel. It's just that these movies are so ridiculously unreal that it takes too much effort for me, the audience, to get any sense of connection with the movie.
3. Don't have crazy flashbacks. These are cheesy, cheap, desperate ways to let the audience know something. Flashbacks seem amateur to me, especially when they're done to end the movie (ahem, Next).
4. If your movie is going to be a sad movie, don't end with a sad ending. If I've cried through the whole movie, I do NOT want to end a movie crying. Make me smile at least at the end of the movie, like a Walk to Remember does. If you still want to end with a sad ending, it better be a hella legit sad ending.
more to come - brain is shot.
time for coffee.
