No Time For Movies?




Lately I had no time for movies, so nowadays I'm getting frustrated. Movies used to be a big part of my life, but being in highschool is keeping me from pursuing my hobby. Thus, I fear that mt hobby for watching movies will have to stop, and
I will have to take up something less time consuming. So now I'm stuck with two options. Give up movies or give up my grades. Personally, I am not willing to give up both, so i decided to devise a plan. It would be to build a time machine and go to the past and do my homework and watch a movie at the same time. However, seeing that is impossible, I guess I'll just have to make-do by studying harder and watch movies either late at night or on the school bus.

My Favorite Television Series

I figured that television series can be viewed as really long movies. Thus, I decided to make a list of my favorite T.V. shows. Television is also a big part of my life and the shows that are on T.V. are sometimes just what I need to get rid of all the stress I had from the week. If you have time watch these shows and send me your thoughts and feelings as well! This list is completely opinion generated and is meant to help you choose what show you might want to watch.

4) American Pie - Funny, Adult, Drama
5) Friends - Funny, Drama, Family Fun

Ghandi


We're learning about Ghandi in my history class, so I decided to take the time to watch the movie "Ghandi." While watching this movie, I was able to feel a connection between school and entertainment, something I rarely felt in my entire life. Thus, I can say that although this movie lacks the high packed action I usually enjoy, it was time well spent watching this. I was able to learn about how India was oppressed after The Great War, and how hard life was for the people there. The plot of the movie follows Ghandi from when he was in school to when he turns old. He stresses in fighting the enemy but not through violence. I learned so much today and feel enlightened. I recommend this movie to all history geeks like me!

D-War

This movie was a complete failure. Korean legends, good graphics, good action, I thought this movie had it all. However, twenty minutes into the film I left the theater and didn't come back. I didn't know if the actors were acting or just staring at the camera. It was a brutal movie to watch and the Korean legend that they portrayed was very dull as well. However, I have to admit that the battle scenes were okay to look at because of the amazing graphics. For those of you who didn't see the movie, it is about a guy who takes a girl called Yeoyijoo, and runs away from mystical giant snakes. These snakes apparently have legions of minions to do their bidding and have enough technology to take down the U.S. military. Thus, once more I stress that this movie was terrible. And if you have to watch it, good luck finishing it.

Kick-A**


Offensive title, hideous wetsuits, crime fighting action, and intense comedy was all this movie had to offer. And I loved it. Every moment of this movie was glorious and hilarious. I strongly believe that this movie will take over the box office and dominate the comedy genre for a really long time. In case you never heard of this movie, it is about an average teenager who decides to play the role of a superhero. The thing that he doesn't know is that there is a crime organization out there who put a large bounty on his head. After a terrible beating by some muggers on his street, he is rushed to the ambulance. Since he does not want to be found in his costume, he tells the doctors to say that he was naked; this leads to the speculation that he's gay. Thus, this is a must watch movie, and I hope you all enjoy watching the movie, "Kick-A**."
