Where Jimmy Stewart is looking into everyone's windows and can see everything they're doing. I was glancing around out the front window tonight on a commercial break and I saw into one of my neighbor's living rooms. I've known these people for as long as I can remember. They've lived 2 houses over from me for practically my entire life. But do I ( Read more... )

So, because I actually have people that may or may not read this thing. I shall update more often. I'm going to try to update my movie reviews more often, but sadly, haven't had a chance to write many lately. Oh well, I should probably work on my world lit stuff now, since I'm in that class, but blech. Blech and blarg are both really fun words to ( Read more... )

It was a treasure hidden among a row of mediocrity

It had many layers flaking away, slowly decaying from disuse

But it had character, infinite amounts of character

Blending into its surroundings, it stood long forgotten

A home abandoned, a friend left behind

It was a diamond in the rough, striving to be rediscovered

The relationship began with a simple hand-made birthday card. When the minister announced it was her 80th birthday, I knew what I had to do. I knew as every two-year-old does that with birthdays come presents and cards. So, I went back to the nursery and drew her a card. I had my mother point her out to me after church ended and I marched over ( Read more... )

Hutu and Tutsi. Before I saw Hotel Rwanda, these terms were pretty much foreign to me. Granted I was 4 when the genocide in Rwanda occured and unless they talked about it on Sesame Street, I didn't really know about it. however, many other people that should've been following the news in 1994 really had no clue. An entire culture was being ( Read more... )

While Hitch is a bit of a formulaic plot, this is a truly fantastic romantic comedy. It stars Will Smith, Eva Mendes, and Kevin James. Will Smith plays Alex Hitchens, the date doctor. He helps men like Albert (Kevin James), a nervous average joe, build up the confidence and shows them the right moves to get women like Allegra, a rich socialite, to ( Read more... )

It is one week before Jack is getting married. He and his best friend, Miles, go on a road trip across the wine valley of California. Along the way, they drink a lot of wine, Jack acts like a jerk 24/7, and Miles whines throughout the whole movie. Unfortunately, the movie starts out annoying and progressively gets worse. Sideways is built up to be ( Read more... )

Every little kid growing up is most likely afraid of the Boogeyman. I know I was terrified. After seeing this movie, I'm not really sure why. The movie's plot is so weak it's practically nonexistent. I don't think it's fair to judge the acting, because the script was so bad no actor alive could have pulled it off. I commend Barry Watson for giving ( Read more... )

So, I'm slowly going to post my movie reviews here. Considering one person reads this that I know of, it may be pointless but I don't care. First one is Million Dollar Baby ( Read more... )

So, yeah. My second post in 4 months, I'm doing good. So I've pretty much decided to discontinue my fics, because I am a failure as a writer. I just can't write fiction. I can write my opinions on stuff, but I can't do the character development and further the plot thing. I'm beta reading though, because I'm good at that. So, I'm pretty much going ( Read more... )
