   Common Sense: Why buy a full screen movie
Tuesday, February 14, 2006 @ 01:23AM
Why do people buy full screen movies? Buying a full screen movie is like only buying half a movie. Most movies are filmed in widescreen meaning when you watch them on most TVs there are black bars on the top and bottom of the movie but you are watching the movie are the director intended and how it was shown in the theater. With a full screen movie, the studio has to chop off half of each frame to turn it into a full screen movie thereby only giving you half a movie.

There are exceptions; there is nothing wrong with buying full screen movie if the movie was filmed in full screen. But most movies are filmed in widescreen so we are back to my original question, why do people like watching only half a movie?

Movies should be considered pieces of art and just like how no one would ever consider cutting up the Mona Lisa to fit into a certain size frame the same consideration should be applied to movies.

   Entertainment: Doom the movie
Tuesday, February 14, 2006 @ 12:37AM
The Doom series of games are fun to play but what would ever make people think turning it into a movie would be a good idea. Doom, as a movie is awful. The entire movie is like watching someone play Doom III. The only difference between Doom III and the movie is in the movie they decided to use another color besides black for the entire thing. If you are like me, you much rather play a video game rather than watch someone else play the game and poorly at that for two hours.

   Entertainment: What I learned from watching “Rent”
Tuesday, February 14, 2006 @ 12:35AM
The other day I watched the movie version of Rent. Before a few days ago I no idea what Rent was about. After watching it there are a few things I learned from it.

Almost everyone has AIDS.

Almost everyone is gay or at least a little BI.

Most people would rather sing about being poor rather than getting a damn job.

This last point is why I hated Rent. The entire movie is about eight people that like to complain about how they have to money to pay their rent and how their landlord is trying to evict them rather than getting a damn job. During the entire 135 minutes of the movie I kept thinking they should just get a damn job already.

Victoria Alexander of filmsinreview.com best summed up the movie by saying "I hated every 135 minutes of it. Heroic HIV-positive New Yorkers who do nothing and do not want to pay rent. They worship a flirty drag queen named Angel."

   Common Sense: Why do people rent movies?
Friday, January 20, 2006 @ 08:35PM
A little over a year ago, I asked that question and today I still have no idea. I should rephrase that. I know people get a service like Netflix because if you are forever watching movies or wish to watch several seasons of a TV show it can be cheaper but I do not know why people would want to go to a store like Blockbuster or Hollywood video just rent one movie. A large portion of people who rent movies do not really care what they rent they just want a movie to watch. Why rent a movie when for just a few cents more you can buy a movie? It costs $4.50 now to rent a movie however if you go to Walmart you can buy good movies not just junk for $4.88. If you really do not want to keep the movie, after you are done watching the movie, you can go to a store like Half price books and get cold hard cash for the movie which in the end would make the movie cheaper than renting it. Therefore, we are back to the question, why do people rent movies at the video rental store.

   World News: Darwin wins again

I know muggers are damn stupid but one would think a mugger would realize jumping into a tiger cage might have a negative result. A mugger learned the hard way by jumping into a tiger enclosure to flee from police and was mauled to death instead of arrested.

   Common Sense: Let us blame others for our own failures
Thursday, October 27, 2005 @ 12:06AM
Why do people blame others for their own screw-ups? People in Florida are blaming the government for not providing them with food and water after the last hurricane. Jeb Bush is even accepting blame for the problems with distributing food and water to individuals affected by hurricane Wilma.

How about instead of demanding the government give you everything, you take responsibility and take care of your own damn self. People are complaining that the government did not plan well enough to handle the devastation after a storm, yet at the same damn people did not plan themselves. How about you plan ahead and have water and food ready for when there is a storm. It does not cost much to keep a weeks worth of food and water to be used after a storm. If you really need ice to chill your medicine then how about you plan ahead again and make some ice while you still have a working freezer so you do not have to wait in line for hours for ice and complain about how others did not plan ahead.

Hurricanes happen every year in Florida and people are given several days warning when a hurricane is coming. People need to start taking responsibility in their own damn failure to plan ahead and be ready for the aftermath of a hurricane instead of blaming everyone else for their own failures.
