Hitting the mark!

 Day 352


October 16, 2024


Well, Freddy unfortunately faced defeat again in today’s film. I found myself increasingly frustrated with Lori’s character—her decisions were so irritating at times that I actually caught myself shouting at the screen in disbelief over her seemingly foolish choices. 


In the grand scheme of things, it feels like the true fans of the franchise were the real losers in this situation, rather than either Freddy or Jason. While the film had its moments, it ultimately left a lot to be desired. It’s not that the movie is inherently bad; there were flashes of creativity and some entertaining scenes. However, I genuinely believe that with a bit more thought put into the plot and character development, it could have reached a much higher standard. Overall, it’s a film that might appeal to some, but it definitely didn’t hit the mark for me today!

Day 51

Day 51 December 20th, 2023  So again, I am just watching the movie for the sake of watching it. As much as I want to review more deleted scenes or sequences today, I am not feeling it. I am starting to wonder if this will take a toll on me mentally. It is like a daily chore like brushing your teeth or showering just to watch it. I know that I have a lot going on outside of watching the film, and seasonal depression is probably kicking in if you couldn't tell from some of the anti-Christmas stuff I was saying yesterday. For the record, I once liked Christmas, then I saw how dysfunctional my family became after my father passed away, and we were able to only get a handful of good Christmas Eve nights. It started going downhill after I had my colon resection. I do blame myself for the start of the decline. I ripped my brother's family a new hole because I took all my pain out on them. This was when I grew less fond of letting the kids do whatever they wanted. I did not yell at the

Day 100

Day 100 February 7th, 2024 Is it over? I will be the first to admit that the first 100 days were tough. It all seems easy on paper but in practice this sucks. I feel like I could have applied myself to something better and something that could improve my overall mental state along with my health. Instead, I do the opposite and strangely I am somewhat okay with that. Theories... Theories... Theories. I have written quite a few theories about this movie and to be honest that is what is making the project fun. The movie is pretty much cut and dry but for me to survive I have to look into the film and find some deeper meaning towards certain aspects. Do I honestly feel that some of the crackpot theories I’ve written hold some weight, yes. It is my opinion of things and how I see them and in ways envisioned them and interpreted them. I feel that being able to express them in a medium that I prefer it is allowing me to enjoy what I am doing. Someday I’d like to adventure into a podcast about

Pee Wee

  Day338 October 2, 2024 I loved the Pee Wee Herman reference in the film with the line, "I know you are but what am I?" It was a humorous and nostalgic moment that added a touch of lightheartedness to the scene.
