Beginning and End

One of my favorite movies that I personally believe has a really good beginning, middle, and end is Toy story 3. It takes a place about 10 years after Toy Story 2. In the beginning of the movie, Andy has all these toys he use to play with, but he's now older and is going off to college. He doesn't play with the toys but what he doesn't know is that the toys can come to life. The toys try to make the owner want to play with them, but it does not work. They overhear the owner's mom talk about putting them in the attic. The toys don't want to be placed in the attic and would rather go to college with their owner. In the middle of the movie, the toys are brought to a day care for kids. The kids come and play with the toys. The toys liked being there at first, but then they were eager to leave after they find out that they were being played by toddlers. They wanted to be played with children who are a bit older than toddlers, since toddlers don't know how to play with toys. They plan to escape and go home. In the end, the toys get back home and plan to stay in the attic. Not soon after, the owner takes the toys to a new owner at the day care. The new owner promises to take good care of the toys and cherish them. The beginning, middle, and end is very great and this is why this is one of my favorite movies.

Undeserved Misfortune

Undeserved Misfortune is one of the key factors in making a great film. It is shown throughout many great Hollywood films such as Forrest Gump. It is about a man named Forrest who was boring with many problems that he did not deserve to be born with. He had a mental problem where it was hard for him to speak. He also couldn't walk so he had braces to help him. Kids at his school made fun of him for that and would chase him down throwing rocks at him. Throughout the movie, people are always using him and taking advantage o the fact that he doesn't really understand what is going on. Undeserved Misfortune helps so that the audience feels  emotions towards the character, often feeling sorrow. This helps the audience become emotionally connected to the movie and the character, bringing interest to the movie .

Conflict

A time I seen conflict is in the movie Finding Nemo. It starts off by showing Marlin's wife being eaten by a shark and the babies being taken away. One baby was left behind, which is Nemo. After growing up, Nemo gets taken away . Marlin then faces many more problems when trying to find his son Nemo such as dealing with sharks, jellyfish, and his partner he met along the way Dory. Dory also brings along many problems as she has a mental problems where she doesn't have a very good memory. Conflict is well displayed throughout the movie between each character, characters themselves, and all the characters together. Conflict is one of the key factors of making a great movie.  Everybody wants to see conflict, if there is no conflict then the audience will not be interested in the movie.

Bullying

When I was a child, I would always witness someone being bullied. Kids in my school would be bullied for simple stuff like how they dress or not knowing what certain stuff is. I always though bullying was not right. Like why would you bully someone just because they have less stuff than you or because they're into different stuff then you are? Like they have their own problems and being bullied is jut another one added to their lives that they don't need. I know if I were to be bullied, it would probably be the most traumatizing experience if my life because it would make me stress about life and having to go to school early in life rather than typical people who don't stress about that until high school. I have never been bullied or have been a bully. I think bullying is just a childish phase because as you get older, you see less people being bullied because we don't see it as bullying anymore, we just see it as our friends playing around. Nowadays, friends are usually just mean to each other, it's just a part of friendship, but of course not physically mean to each other.

My Film Job

For the film my group is going to be making, I want to be an ACTOR. I think this job is best suitable for me because if we have lines, I have a really good memory so it would be easy for me to do so.

My Review of The Elephant Man

The Elephant Man is one of the best movies I have ever seen. What really drew my attention was the fact that it was based on a true story, meaning there was actually an elephant man that looked like how they portrayed him in the movie. I think John Merrick is a magnificent character. He goes from being the biggest freak in a freak show to being given a round of applause by everybody in an opera. Throughout the movie he is always scared and curious, but he eventually overcomes that and begins to speak. What I love the most about John Merrick is how he always just wanted to be happy since the beginning, he didn't let all the attention get to him and alternate his intensions, he just always wanted to be happy. I also love how in the scene where he dies, how it gave me the idea that he did it because he finally has been able to do what his biggest goal was, and that was just to be happy, he lived for so long, just to be happy with his life, and when he had finally done that, he saw no other real reason to live anymor. I also love how this movie uses symbolism. I like how they show John Merrick as a god, but not our typical god, in fact a kind of god no one ever imagined. I love how this movie makes you think in order to understand the real message behind the movie.

My Name Is John Merick

Today I was taken back to France by Mr. Bites. He took my back to be in his little show again, at least that is what I assume. When he took me I was very frightened, I thought he would abuse me as soon as he could get his hands on me. I hate being in this freak show, I hate all of this negative attention I get and how people are frighten when they take a look at me. I am not an elephant, I am not an animal, I am a human being. But I guess to Bites, I will always be an animal. Which his why he probably put me in that monkey cage when he was drunk. I was so frightened and humiliated when I was put in there. I felt so lonley and helpless, all I thought about was going back to The London so Dr. Treves can accompany me and keep me safe. I hate Bites because he treats me like an animal. I don't know what I would have done if the other people in the freak show wouldn't have let me out of that cage. If it weren't for them, I wouldn't be where I am today, on my way back to The London so I can go back to Dr. Treves.

Compassionate Science

As I get older, I would love to help people who have nothing. But before I do so, I have to make sure that i get well educated enough to be able to do it. So I will make sure to get a good job. I want to go into the field of engineering. Although I don't know what kind of engineer I want to be, I know that whatever it is, I'll be able to help people. I will do this by starting off small, and by small I mean like starting food drives and giving to needy a place to sleep, maybe give money to build a shelter. Then once I do this, I will put all kind of stuff in the shelter so this way the needy can have fun while being in there and will also have stuff for kids because I'm sure that they are sad and in need of some happiness. I will put all sorts of games for kids and adults, and I will even put in a little movie place for entertainment. I will try my best to get them healthy both physically and mentally. I just want for them to still be able to live a normal life. I don't want them to suffer just because they weren't able to make it in life.

Welcome To My Nightmare

Fear is important in life because it gives you something to overcome. If everything in life was easy to do and can be done with no fear, then everybody would be successful. But fear does exist. Fear exists so you can overcome it. Fear is one of the biggest obstacle in life because it is not easy. To overcome your fear is a great challenge and it makes you work in order to do so. After overcoming your fear, you feel great about yourself and accomplished. You feel stupid for letting that little fear get in your way and have you worrying. Fear makes you realize that you cam do stuff that your mind thinks it cant. You realize stuff you would have never realized if you would have let your fear rule you. You learn to live life with no fear. Fear is important because it builds your strength mentally. Fear only exists in your mind if you let it. Fear exist so you can overcome it and have your mind not let it exist anymore.

The Future

In a thousand years from now, I think the world will change very dramasticlly. I think that cars will be much faster than they are today and will maybe even eventually be able to control themselves. I think cars will be able to do much more than they can in today's world such as automatically putting your seatbelt on for you, automatically turning on when you get in, and maybe you won't need a key to open it, maybe you'll have to speak to it so it has to automatically recognize your voice. Another thing I think we will have in the future is that maybe they will create a pen, and when you turn a switch on on the pen, whatever you write will automatically be typed on your computer at the same time. And if you don't want whatever you're writing to be typed, you simply turn the switch off and it would still work as a normal pen. Another development I think will come in the future is that there will be a solar power charger for your phone. Iphone's usually die very quickly so maybe they will put a solar power consumer so when it is dying, you simply put it out in the sun and it will charge. You will still be able to charge it with a normal charger as well, the solar power charger is probably going to be used in case of emergencies like if you're outside and you don't have your charger or maybe if you've lost your charger.

Laughing so Hard

One day in english class, we having a class discussion. This class discussion was really intense, student were arguing with student, and everybody was in the conversation and our teacher was amazed. So, in the middle of this discussion, my two friends John, David, and I saw a kid in our class just get up and run out of the class. John and I just turned back to the class discussion until we hear somebody laughing. So John and I turn around to find our friend David laughing extremely hard, his face was red and he was crying of laughter. We were curious so we tried to get him to tell us what was so funny. David could not tell us because he was laughing too hard until finally he relaxed. So John and I asked David what was so funny? and David said "I pictured like a script to that, like imagine he was texting his girlfriend and was like hey come over and the guy replied that he can't because he's in english class and his girlfriend then texts him "but i'm home alone" and then imagine the guy just running out the class." John and I were laughing so hard as well and we couldn't stop laughing. This was the time I laughed the hardest, we were literally laughing for about 10 to 15 minutes.

Modern Times

The movie "Modern Times" was produced by Charlie Chaplin and was released in 1936. Chaplin shows some of his troubled childhood as he plays a factory worker called The Tramp. In this movie, The Tramp ever talks although they have the technology they have in the movie allows sound. Charlie Chaplin did not make the character talk because they character has never talked in a movie before so he was not going to make him talk now. Also, as i mentioned, the movie shows a lot of new technology, but only in the beginning. After, they never show the technology again the movie is shot in our everyday places. Charlie Chaplin basically predicted the future by showing all this new technology and was showing his viewers that even with technology in the future, we are all still miserable. Another thing is that Charlie Chaplin changed the ending of his movie. Originally his movie was supposed to end where him and his lady will never be happy because he is crazy and she is a nut. He ended the movie to a happy ending where him and his lady are leaving, both smiling.

My Favorite Movie

My favorite movie is Lucy, which recently came out this year. This is my favorite movie because it makes you think if what they say is true or not. It made me wonder if we are actually only using about ten percent of our brain. If we are, it also makes me wonder what kind of things you would be able to do if you were able to use one-hundred percent of your brain. Would you actually be able to do all the things the movie shows? Even if it is not as cool as it is in the movie, it would still be cool to use my brain in ways I did not know I can use it. All of the action and the way the film producers made the movie look really got me into the movie as well, especially when there is a lot of action going on.
