Movies

I know this sounds elementary. After all, we’re different human beings with different needs and desires. With different hopes and dreams. And different pain.

Invictus: Invincible

I love movies. I love all kinds of movies. They have the power to incite emotions and make people feel and think about things that they may not have taken the time to think or feel otherwise. I even love the movies that specifically don’t make you think. But, Invictus…was a thinker.

I went and saw Nightmare Before Christmas in 3D last night. Let me just say, it is absolutely amazing. After the initial first moments of pure nausea, watching a move in 3D totally blew me away. The detail, the intricacies, the fact that objects looked like I could literally reach out and touch them…WOW. Technology [...]

At one point or another, we’ve all been asked, “if you could have one superpower, what would it be?” I’ve given this some thought.

This film cracked me up. The short, witty one-liners were definitely a highlight. However, it was the concept of the film that really got me thinking. The movie is about a man who is getting married and is in search of a best man for his wedding. He goes on several “man-dates” in order to seek out the best fit for the position. He has no friends. According to his brother, he has always been a “girlfriend guy” where he bounces from relationship to relationship and leaves his friends in the dust, thus, leaving him with no friends whatsoever. Don’t get me wrong, I know this is just a movie, but movies can sometimes dictate real life. Let me break it down for you.
