“Scooby-Doo And The Ghoul School”: A blast from the
childhood tv past. I remember always wanting to see this movie on Tv, yet only,
truly remember the volleyball scenes. Rewatching this movie made me wonder
about this movie. Having all three of my boys with me and not really hearing
the dialogue, I let my mind simply wonder some more. It turned out, no dialogue
needed to be heard. The Scooby plot itself is way out there, man, like outer
space out there. In this movie, there are real monsters, Shaggy has a red
shirt, the van looks like a space ship and Scrappy-Doo is in it, obviously to
win it. Yet, my heart and soul still loves Scooby in this strange caper, which
isn’t even a caper, but rather a long drawn out
weirdness-to-make-you-wonder-what-the-hell-the-writers-were-popping moment. HEARING

“This Is The End”: Realistic fantasy and fantastic ride. Funny,
funny, funny and just outright crazy. The laughs have got to go, GOT TO GO
(Franco’s voice in mind). Everything about it was fun and what the viewer was
thinking: McBride the uberdeutschbag, Jonah the nice, and take those pants off.
The movie looked like a ton of fun and although not all of it was characteristically
true, the script made it seem like true, thus allowing the viewer to nod
his/her head in agreement to the almighty plot of the movie. I’ll tell you
what, I would have done the same thing with the drugs & booze, like Jonah
said while pointing the gun around, gotta have some fun. Bang. Bang. Bang. Ever
wonder why McBride is the saaaaaaaaaame character in every single movie: white
trash hillbilly who is annoyingly funny; he is that fat guy on the football
team that rides the pine all year, every year of his life, yet brags about his
superstar days and parties really hard all year, you feel bad for the dude, but
you know the dude is daaaaamn funny. HEARING AID ON
“Iron Man 3”: And my oh my is there a lot of technology
going on. Way, way too many Iron Man suits, but it all worked out plot wise and
movie screen wise. It was a rush to see Robert use his brand of sarcastic humor
while being Tony. He is the burnt-out-looking-actor-version-of-Johnny Depp type
that gets to be himself (aside from nearly all the characters from This Is The
End) while making a huge, massive blockbuster hit. The #1 thing I loved about
this movie is how it kept referring to the Avengers movie; now that is awesome
because it allows there to be a continuity of filmage. Also, the scene
following the credits is classic. Notice that the technology used in this film
is more realistic than the technology in the films used in the black &
white days with their large giant boxes and countless knobs that visually and
practically made no sense, especially when the mad scientist would turn this
and that for no other apparent reason other than to turn on a light bulb:
fascinating. But, I guess that was the future of technology then. Technology
will never rule us physically, but rather change our mental thought process to
steer us away from the simple things in life that make us truly happy: hot
wife, 3 beautiful boys, country home, booze, G.I. Joes & ability to grow
awesome sideburns: whoops, I guess I was referring to me and didn’t include,
you the reader. Sorry. Now it is your turn to think of the little things that
make you happy: All a HEARING AID ON
