 Day 363


October 27, 2024


As I sit with my thoughts, a whirlwind of emotions begins to settle in. I find myself in disbelief over the journey I've taken. Initially, I had anticipated that I would only commit to this project for a month before throwing in the towel. Yet here I am, almost a full year later, immersed in this endeavor, chronicling my experience as I delve into what might be one of the most captivating tales of developmental purgatory in film history. The behind-the-scenes saga of the film’s creation has proven more intriguing than the final product we were ultimately shown. Perhaps there’s a story worth telling about the challenges and delays in bringing a Freddy vs. Jason movie to life.


This leads me to reflect on the countless opportunities I could have seized in the past year to enhance my own well-being. I could have pursued a healthier lifestyle, shedding excess weight and embracing fitness. I might have ventured back into the world of dating, despite my belief that modern romance feels overly complicated and fraught with challenge. Maybe I could have saved diligently for a down payment on a house, or even met someone who could have been the “love of my life,” with dreams of marriage and children dancing in my head.


Instead, I dedicated my time to this seemingly frivolous project, all in an effort to combat my commitment issues. 


It might sound ridiculous, but is it really?


Today, I found joy once more in revisiting FVJ, and the experience left yet another imprint on my journey.

  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.

One hundred and nine days of agony!

  Day 109 February 16th, 2024 Hi Jethro! Today is a simple day of recollection. I did watch the movie but I wanted to pivot again from writing about the film and any crackpot theories I may have as my sanity slowly slips away into the abyss called Crystal Lake. I haven't been in the best of moods all week and I continue writing daily because I find it to be cathartic. I am not a fan of the Hallmark holiday and I am not a fan of the blood work results I received. One would think that I should just abandon the project and shift focus to myself. What if I were to simply ride the wave of consistency and start making changes for myself? After all, this is my one go at life and I would be pretty pissed if it came to an abrupt ending. I have battled MS for 25 years come March 10th. I also battle other ailments in life due to that and well, being lazy and not taking care of myself.  My father had his first heart attack at 42. We managed to get an additional 19 years, almost twenty bef...

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...
