Many words can be used to describe how I feel about this. Great way to ask a girl out? Is this how I should go to prom with my date? Why do I feel like this is an okay thing to look at?
My weekend started when fifth period was over and when I was driving away from school like a civilized driver, not like a madman. When I got home I packed up and headed out to south Jersey to spend the weekend at my mom's and to babysit while she was at work and to spend quality time with her. While I was down there I was curious about my subscription to netflix on my xbox 360. I've have a membership deal with them and use my xbox to watch whatever movies they have on it. As I search up the movies I realize that I have a good amount of movies to watch while I basically vegetate my weekend away! To be frank, I'll just tell you the movies and give you my thoughts about them.
From Dusk Till Dawn- I remember seeing this movie on HBO as a kid. While watching this bloody nugget of a horror movie I was really into how damn gory this movie was and how insane the characters were. The vampires were just down right crazy as well. Being made by the hands of Robert Rodriguez and Quentin Tarantino, From Dusk Till Dawn has all sorts of small details to the batshit mad plot line. But then again what else would you expect from those two. George Clooney's performance is an interesting one since his character has to take care of a psychopathic sibling all the while they try to escape the U.S. and into Mexico.
Bunraku- Here's an interesting movie. Bunraku's genre is bend around abit. It's a western meets an action meets musical (just with violence instead of singing). The story basically tells of how the world ended with big bang and those who survived decided that guns were the culprit to their violent ways. So with all firearms thrown away this gave way for bladed weapons to return. In this world instead of guns the characters use their fists, swords, knives and wits to stay afloat in this crazed city ruled by Nickola (Ron Pearlman) and his 10 killers. The movie reminds me of High Plains Drifter due to John Hartnet's performance as The Drifter who wants to kill Nickola for unknown purposes. Woody Harrelson's role as The Bartender who bring The Drifter and The Samurai together as allies is an interesting role. Bunraku is an art movie with it's origami design sets and story telling and it's an action flick with it's endless amounts of sword play and ass kicking. Technically these were the only two movies I watched the rest of the weekend was spent playing Skyrim.
And done..for now.
As far as me being a writer I do have plenty of authors to look up to. Douglas Adams, is one of them. Famous for writing the Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy series, which was also made into a movie and television show. While writing the screenplay for the film adaptation, he had died of a heart attack and well, never got to see his work appear on the screen. Adams being the atheist that he was had some pretty interesting views and ways to describe them. As an agnostic, I can agree with a few of his views on life even if he was a self proclaimed "Radical Atheist".
Religion doesn't have much to do with what else I have to admire about him. His humor was something that made me giggle at how simple it seemed. Like in Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy. Author Dent had laid out before his house in hopes to prevent his house from being bulldozed over by a city construction crew, the boss of the crew was sort of a funny character. The manager was a funny looking man, but that wasn't just the joke about him, the joke was that he was a decedent from Genghis Khan and he could hear his ancestors murder villagers inside of his brain. The whole character wasn't important to the story and short lived but he also was just funny and unique since I can't recall any other character being tormented by images of pillaging of villages from his ancestor. His writing showed that you can be different with your characters and how you can add humor at any point you can think of.
There's also how I can break the impossible with any of my stories and characters. Like how Marvin the robot was always depressed. You usually never can imagine robots as clinically depressed but Adams made this character that sort made science fiction turn a bit funny.
Douglas's legacy lived on with his famous book series being continued by Eion Colfer, famous for the Artemis Fowl series. I would love to continue writing about him and his influence on me, but I'm tired and I fear I won't wake up on time.
Expect baby sloths because...whynot?
Need. To. Buy. Coloring. Book.

Okay, so reptilian aliens are linked to antisemitism.
Then what awful thing are grey aliens linked to?
Actually they're fine tbh. In most UFO lore the Greys are just kinda biomachines. They're like meat versions of the opportunity rover.
Dammit John. We sang it again...bastard.
Brachiosaurus Monster that evolved in the deep dark caves, all its bones are cartilage and every part of it is prehensile to fit in crevices.
