Superior Position

There was superior position in the movie Jack Ass. The part where they did the punching glove through the door was one example. The guys gather together while one of them goes on the chair to look through the window; the other guys know that he is going to be punched already.


In real life there was a superior position, when I knew that my fried was going to get punched because I heard other guys talking about it in the hallway. I forgot about it and as I am walking to the table, he gets punched. I knew and he didn't.


A good idea is that there can be a group of friends that are organizing a fight for the other group, but they do not  know it. They gather up  in front of Bell High at night and beat them up as they are coming out of adult school.

Undeserved Misfortune

Undeserved misfortune is when the protagonist gets into a tragic event and nothing can be done about it. It makes the audience feel bad or sad. In the movie Frozen, Anna gets extreme hypothermia until the point that she freezes and she could have been saved if the "prince" loved her. The undeserved misfortune is that she "loved" him and when it came to a life and death matter, she is not granted what the audience wants. 

In real life, there was undeserved misfortune when a guy in my class threw a paper and landed on my teacher's desk and the blame got put on the good student. 

This can combine and be a great idea for a film. We have two best friends who have been friends since they were little. There comes a time where Bob, the bad kid, goes into a store and kills the cashier. They get caught, but when the cops come Bob throws Billy(innocent kid) under the bus and he goes to jail. 

My film Job

I would like to be a producer. My leadership skills and communication skills can really contribute to my film production. I can work well with people as far as being understanding and getting the task done on time. I have been a leader for my club volleyball team, a squad leader in the explorers police academy. I am kind and honest which will help in my film production.

Conflict Blogs

In the movie 21, there is conflict between Micky and Ben. After being part of counting cards in Las Vegas, Ben gets tired and starts to lose money. Micky gets angry at him and leaves Ben and the crew in Las Vegas while he flies back to Boston. Ben thinks that he can run the whole crew on his own. However, when Ben goes back to MIT everything is lost. His money for his scholarship, his education, and friends because of Micky.

In real life  I have faced a conflict between my neighbor. One night she came home from UCLA and knocked on my door. I opened and saw that it was 3 a.m, but she said it was an emergency. Her family would not open the door. She began to panic, but I just wanted to sleep. She insisted on throwing rocks, but  I did not want to. After her whining I "helped" her. Later on, she panics again. She calls the police and they come to her house, but they come after she got in. I went back to sleep the next minute. 

An idea for a film is that every night my friend crashes at my place after coming from parties late at night. All he does is sleep, but one night he decides to take advantage of my house. He begins to eat all my food, throw up, use my clothes, and gets cocky. One night the police comes looking for him. I end up being an accomplice of a robbery he commits. He puts the whole blame on me. I plead innocent and when I come back, I destroy his car, take his girlfriend, dog, couch, and money. Oh and clothes. 

My Review on the Elephant Man

The Elephant Man was a life changing movie. The characters represent the good and the evil in this world, and it makes me realize what kind of person I am portrayed as. This is shown through the character's actions in the film. The Night Porter and Bytes abuse the main character, John Merrick, drastically. They beat him, they abuse him, and they use him for money. The abuse in the movie makes me realize how people can be cruel to someone else mainly because of their differences. The bad in the movie are to be learned from by the audience. On the other hand, the movie itself is just an amazing work of art. The black and white color of the film really brought out the film's true colors. Also, the make up on John Merrick is amazingly incredible! John Merrick is a strong character in the film because after so much abuse he remains to be a polite and kind person. He also learns that the London hospital and Dr. Federick Treeves are a blessing to him and they are dearly someone they can call home, since Mr. Merrick never really had a home in the first place. All he had was a picture of his mother who had the face of an angle, but she was in the heavens. With that being said, an analyzation of John Merrick and his mother is created. John Merrick represents the creation of mother nature(his mom) and in the film it shows how people in their own world are destroying mother nature's creations with machinery because had not there been pollution, Mr. Merrick would have turned out to be good looking. Overall this film emphasis the good and the evil, a splendid film. 10 of 10. Many lessons learned.

My Name is John Merrick...

It  felt like a complete nightmare! They attacked me, they messed up my gift from Dr. Federick Treeves, I felt hopeless and useless when the Night Porter tossed me around and abused me. I thought I was the monster, but in fact they are the real monsters, regardless of their physical appearance. I do not see why I should be treated in this manner. I felt like i was home, but now this feels like i am back with Mr. Bytes! This feels like a complete nightmare. I just want to be in a place where no one bothers me and i can be at peace with myself and Dr. Federick Treeves. I do not deserve to be put under misery. I suffered so much already. I should not suffer once again. I don't want to be treated like a monster. I am not a monster i am a human being!

Welcome to my Nightmare bwahahahahaha...

My biggest fear is mis-communication in real life and going to school in boxers. This fear came long before the movie "Captain America" came out, but it relates to the movie. At the end of the scene Captain America is supposed to go on a date and learn how to dance with Peggy, the officer, but he goes into a coma and wakes up many years into the future.  He does not have her anymore nor does he have anyone.  With that being said, my biggest fear is to wake up someday and everybody you once knew and loved is gone. You're all alone in this world that you are not used to. However, this fear has taught me great things because i learned that this is true someday you'll wake up and not everyone is going to be there anymore, not literally one day to the next, just as time goes by over the years; therefore, any person that walks in your life is to be treated with happiness, full of joy rather than sorrow. 

Going to school in boxers or missing one piece of clothing or backpack has been a nightmare since elementary because can you imagine sitting in class with out shoes, trousers or top. 

Compassionate Science

Many scientists have the compassion to take their skill and paycheck to help someone in the other side of the world, like Mike Ebeling did. Do you have what it takes to do what Mike Ebeling did? 

As a scientist in the future I have the kind soul and heart to take my knowledge and make the world a better place. 

To achieve the skills of an engineering scientist, is a blessing. If i were to become an engineer in robotics i would definitely take science and put it to good use. I would take the knowledge from 

science and computers, and put it all together. In order to make the change you have to know what you are going to do and how you are going to do it and that is where the science and computer class comes into play. You can demonstate the person how you will use the program to change their life. Because without the scientific knowledge how can something be created? Then as a scientist you ca not always focus in the big pay check! You have to acknowledge your gift and appreciate it, so you can help one another. 

The Future

10 years from now the future withholds sorrow and depression all over again. If the government continues to run the way it is now and the way it ran in the early 1900s, people are going to go crazy!

We see new technology, new programs, new clothing, but no new jobs. As i have seen in the previous films such as: Metropolis and Modern Times; I think to myself that they are predicting the future we live in now. It may not be as bad as they portray it, but there are similar situations. Not too far from home there are homeless, jobless, and people in poverty. This was predicted years back and here we are, living in the "future." Now imagine it 10 years from now, people talk for change, but it is mainly change for the poor. The rich have it easy, the rich will always oppress the poor. Thus, I predict that the poor will always be the poor and the rich will always be the rich, 10 years from now due to the lack of change in todays's future.

My Review on Modern Times

I enjoyed the film Modern times. Generally, I like the comedy in it, the romance, and the struggles, but most of all his character. He taught us that during the industrial revolution people were very poor, factories controlled the workers by having them work long hours, and when they would not work they will be on strike. Charlie Chaplin as the little tramp symbolized hope and happiness during rough times. Also, an interesting scene in the movie is when Chaplin gets swallowed into the machine. That shows that too much work can swallow the employee as a whole! And later on in the film we see that he makes the repetitive movement as he would when he works, and that shows employees went crazy! The gamit in the film demonstrates that during tough times people have the need to steal to feed their families and they will do whatever it takes to stay out of prison. Overall this film shows the rough times and the happy times. 

One Time I Laughed Really, Really, Hard

A time where i laughed rally really hard was when my volleyball coach, Efrain, fell off my skateboard. Before i left the gym, I was going to get my skateboard, but it was not there, so i knew one of my teammates must have taken it, but then i see Efrain at a distance coming my way and he is holding papers and has his backpack on. A couple of teammates and I were standing around on the the blacktop near the basketball courts and across from us there were basketball girls sitting on the bricks and some bystanders, so everybody that was there saw. When Efrain is approaching us he says"Edson, your board is..." and he fell in front of us right before he can even finish his sentence. As he was falling he tried to grab on to one of my teammates, but failed, also while he was falling the wheels on the skateboard spun which cause him to spin midway before hitting the floor. His final words on the sentence were, "... jacked up." 

My Thoughts on Bullying

Words are dangerous and they can leave a nasty scar. In elementary school I was bullied by a set of people who were not the same race as me. Well what does race have to do with this? It is rare to find someone making fun of their own race; the majority of people make fun of other races, so I happened to be the victim. It was verbal bullying, but at the time I was young and i did not know what to do, besides listen to their comments. I remember the stereotypical and racist comments being shot at me. it got to a point where i just completely broke down. on the long run i saw my race differently due to the comments, i felt ashamed to be who i am. However, i later knew that they were just being ignorant and that i should forget about it. I also realized that bullying can damage the person psychologically; also, it makes one realize what kind of people are in this world, corrupt society. 

My Favorite Movie: Forest Gump and The Fast and the Furious

My favorite movie is Forest Gump. I learn something new from the movie every time i watch it! for instance, the first time I watched it I learned that it took place during the confederate time. It is an inspirational film that taught me that, although you may face some disabilities, it does not keep you from accelerating in life. The true meaning of friendship and love is found in this film. friendship is found with Bubba. They promised to each other that they would have a shrimp boat. When bubba dies he honors his death and becomes the founder of Bubba Gump Shrimp. He helps out his family. Love is an essential factor in the film when him and Jenny meet. I learned that when a person loves someone more than themselves, they will love at distance and for who they are at the end of the day. Also, The Fast and the Furious is an all time street race classic film. It portrays that no matter where you come from, no matter when you got there, no matter how you got there, and no matter what someone turned out to be, family will always be there for one another.
