For the would be directors out there

I'm sitting here at my grandparents house looking at my records while my grandma sister and my mom are watching one of the lamest movies of all time...... Twilight breaking dawn pt 1 out of 5000 and a billion. It's hard to fathom at how cheesy it the script is I'll be honest after new moon I thought wow it's getting better after eclipse wow its getting good now wow really? (the guy who directed this movie is an Oscar winner too?) it's stuff like this that makes me mad that there are good screenwriters that can do a way better job( as I write it's during where she finds out she's pregnant " did you feel that whoa" really? If this was a real situation it would be " what the fuck just moved inside of me" grade A script writing. As a side note if I directed this movie I would of went into great detail like the sex scene in The Watchmen you know for the guys who had to put up with the crappy sequels I'm sorry I didn't get to. To be honest if they got a good script writer it might be better you know after getting good actors( I'll be honest Robert Pattinson was good in Water For Elephants) as a director you can make script changes as I would I'm sorry who ever wrote the screenplays to these movies but to be honest you really suck I mean syfy channel original movies have better script writing than these movies that's how much you suck ( truth hurts) but I'm not one to say give up but you did make a shit load of money from these movies so maybe retire like I said not the one to say give up on your dreams. But let's get down to the point up coming directors directors who have true talent will never get the chance but people like the people who made these movies with the exception of David slade since he is an awesome director get to make movies and they don't turn out good and people who made awesome shorts will never be able to direct big time silver screen movies ( I'm sorry but the wolf talking scene is on it reminds me of Saturday morning cartoons I'm sorry but this is just stupid) that will never see the light of day like uwe boll he makes shitty movies that ruin video games yet he gets to keep making movies over and over and people who makes shorts win Sundance never to make another movie again. As I wrap this up I just want to tell the would be directors out there that in this day an age there probably won't be anymore Stephen Speilbergs or Martin Scorsese in the future were going into a time where good story telling is in the past and mediocre story is the best out there. So for the point learn everything about there style of directing we can't lose that we don't want the future of movies to depend on shitty story telling and horrible direction for that will be the death of cinema.

Mission Trip Honduras 2011

Matthew 28:19-20 Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that I have commanded you. And behold, I am with you always, to the end of the age.”

That is the verse that we were sent off with on a 7 hour flight to San Pedro Sula Honduras Central America from there we took a drive that seemed like forever to La Esperanza a little town in Honduras to a church where the pastor there was larger than life and had one mission bring Christianity to a town that turned there back on Jesus. The church they began with was a little put together church that was the size of a medium sized bed. We had two weeks to build a church a size of a studio apartment. During my time in Honduras i learned that even though I couldn't speak Spanish I was still able to communicate with them funny how an ok gesture goes a long way. One of the things that surprised me is that everyone you met was really happy you think that someone who lives in a small house would be miserable but everyone I met was really happy it just taught you that you don't need all the fancy things like 90 inch tv's and the best cars to be truly happy it's the smallest things in life that make you happen. When we finished the church we had an opening for it we walked around town and handed out flyers and invited people to come that night we had 50+ people show up the biggest the pastor ever had and that night 15 people accepted Jesus Christ as there lord and savior. Like I said the mission was a life changer it gave me a different look on life and to appreciate what you have and that the little things in life is all that matters and that all things are possible with GOD.

The Decline of Book's

I'll just say it Ray Bradbury is a fucking psychic if you don't know who he is he is the author of Fahrenheit 451. In 451 the society is in the future books and been outlawed and burned everyone just wants to watch tv and listen to music even in the book it talked about tv screens that take up a whole wall and little headphones that fits inside your ears. The funny thing about this is the book was written in the 50's and now were in the future and we walk around with headphones in our ears watching tv on our phones and have 90 inch LCD tv's on our living room walls. Turns out Bradbury's future is coming true sad thing is kids these days will never appreciate a good book they will just wait for the movie to come out and never enjoy the book in which the movie is based on. Now I have done that too but in my defense the Harry Potter Books were getting so fucking long and as a guy with A.D.D I couldn't stand it so opted out and waited for the movies. Now I know what your thinking you are a hypocrite you did something that you were criticizing and your right but I believe it's ok to watch the movie but you should read the book before you see the movie also I believe that of you seriously can't read because you have ADD or ADHD then it's fine to never read the books. Also movies based on books should be used as a tool for people who never read the books because most times the books better. I started to write this after I found an article of how scholastics is offering a tablet version of books and that's ok I guess but I think that children should be taught the importance of reading an actual book enjoy the benefits of reading not just reading off a screen. I knew the decline of reading was going to happen when PBS canceled Reading Rainbow the one show that taught kids it's awesome to read. Butterfly in the sky I can fly twice as high take a look its in a book Reading Rainbow... Sorry I can't resist singing that song. Now for a 2012 updated version... Butterfly in the sky I can fly twice as high take a look its in a NOOK Reading Rainbow...sad I know. By the way HUGO is Fucking awesome go see it then read the book or better yet read the book then see the movie either way both are fucking awesome.

Let's have another go at this thing....

I haven't posted anything in the past 2 years and now I have this app on my phone maybe I can get try and update more often a lot of things happened in the past two years in 2011 but the biggest thing I did was went a mission trip to Honduras it was amazing and an experience of a life time something I recommend everyone to do even if you don't believe in GOD just the fact your helping someone out can bring happiness and joy to yours and other peoples lives. Heading to the beach will write later peace out
