The Pretentious Writer

I love to write. I write for fun, I write because I enjoy it.
But one thing I'm starting to hate is actual writers.
A lot of them come off really pretentious. I would say I'm still an amateur writer even after eleven years but I only ever started writing to write stories I would enjoy to read.
But some writers are so up them selves. You can usually see this represented most in Brian Griffin as he is shown as an extreme pretentious writer but you wouldn't be shocked how close to the truth it is.
Writer's always think that their way is the best. They will go through your work and nitpick everything. A lot are perfectionist yet don't realize that spending hours going over they work usually doesn't improve it much.
If you've ever talked to one they go on and on about how they develop characters their own way and how it is superior to anyone else's way, how they write, their methods to get the story just right and so on.
I'm actually ashamed to call myself a writer because it means I'm associating with "Those" people.
They criticize everything and go on about how they would've made it better, take everything too seriously and so on.
I'm just sick of a lot of the ones I meet.

My top 2 Father Son relationships in film

One thing I love in films is father son relationships BUT only if they are done right. Here are my top two father son relationships and why they work so well for me. WARNING-mushiness insures.

Goofy and Max                                          VS                             Mr Peabody and Sherman

                            

Goofy and Max's relationship in the Goofy Movie is done really well. I think in part is because Goofy is just such a good father figure. He tries too hard to be in his son's life whereas Max wants to separate himself from his dad and pave his own life.

Goofy is the absolute most embarrassing parent but to me I just see him as the most loving. He loves Max to the max and even though his parenting could be seen as over burdening I think it's better to have a kind hearted loving parent than one who is always absent. Max and Goofy don't really compliment each other or have much in common but they just work well together. You want to see them get along, you want to see them bond and this movie does this impeccably. The relationship seems natural and comes full cycle as Max finally near the end becomes honest to his old man. This movie stands alone and just leaves you feeling good. Also it is extremely heart warming the bond between Max and Goofy and just gives you a warm feeling watching them together.

Mr Peabody's and Sherman's relationship is different but at the same time very similar

Mr Peabody is a very loving parent but at the same time you wonder why he is one. He came upon Sherman abandoned as a baby and adopted him. He then dedicated his life to parenthood but it's not very often you see geniuses with kids. You can tell Peabody is raising Sherman well but as he is a very kind, bubbly child who is friendly to all and even though he may not have his adoptive father's brains Sherman is encouraged by Peabody every step of the way.

The one thing I love about this relationship is that Peabody is such a unique character. A dog who is talented in everything he puts his paw to. And Sherman is such a happy child who has respect for his father a great deal which you rarely see these days in cartoons but is a happy relief to come by once in a while. The two again don't really compliment or bounce off each other much and it's more of a equal relationship in both bond and love making it quite mutual. Again, that is what makes this relationship unique because there is no real conflict in it. Sherman loves his know it all dad and Peabody loves his clueless son. So it's nice to see something like this every once in a while.

Conclusion

So who do I think is more impacting and sticks with you longer after the film has ended? That would have to go to

Goofy and Max!

Even though Peabody and Sherman's relationship has more trust in it and respect you just can't hate a good conflicting relationship sometimes. Goofy tries so hard throughout the whole movie to win Max's affections that when the two finally do get along you just feel it all the more. The two are just funny together and are more interesting to watch than Peabody and Sherman. But in the long term I think Peabody's and Sherman's relationship is more stable and that Sherman will always keep in contact with his father later in life whereas Max will probably always be embarrassed by his dad.

So that's my two fav Father Son bonds done on film.
And remember,
Watch what others won't.
Bye!

Why I don't read but like to write

I've never liked books. Well most books. I always wanted to read a story that would enchant me, was fun and would bring me into it's world.
But I was a very fussy reader.
Most books bored me. I think in total I've only completed 20 books in 22 years of my life.
But the thing is, I don't mind reading... it's just that I don't like the way most authors write.
When I was 11 I started to write my own books just so I would have something I would like to read. I wrote for myself, told the stories how I wanted to and still do to this day.
Nearly all books fall under expectation.
The only book series I've ever finished was Twilight and even though people say those books were bad, they were the only ones that hooked me.

Little parts in movies that don't work or feel contrived.

I love these movies but there are particular little bits in them that bug me because they just ruin the flow of the film.

Frozen- The Evil Prince Reveal and Love is the answer.

The reason why the evil prince reveal was so bad is because when Hans came out as the villain it just felt so contrived to me. Not because it was bad but because his kind personality he had shown even before he knew Anna was a princess and the way he acted all up to that reveal completely counters the villainous side of him. I felt that they just went for this because they "needed" a villain no matter what. It just didn't fit with the plot and took an unnecessary mean turn from everything else that had happened up to that point and how he had acted before.

Love solves everything. That bit pissed me off as the ending. I can understand that being a good message but it just seemed like a quick fix solution to a really worrying problem. And all of a sudden Elsa has control of her powers just because she now knows love? Five minutes ago she had had no control and now they can all ice skate? I don't think so. The ending was not thought out at all and rushed. That ruined a perfectly good movie for me.

Mr Peabody and Sherman- Penny should be in Ancient Egypt.

There was a complete and obvious plot hole in this that bugs me every time I see it. When Sherman returned back to the same time as another him with Penny it caused the original Sherman not to go back in time to get Penny in the first place. That meant that Penny should have disappeared from the present. It just bugged that she was there when she should have had her timeline altered. That was just sloppy writing there, sloppy writing.

The Goofy Movie- I just wanted you to like me

This one always bugs me a whole lot when I see this movie because it's one of my favourite animated films. When Max was panicking that Roxanne would go with someone else to a party he lied to her and told her he was going to be on TV at the Powerline concert. He said this so she wouldn't go with anyone else, but he knew she liked her. However when he did get on TV and came back, he told her it was a lie and an accident and she asks why would he make up something like that. He says,

"I don't know... I just wanted you to like me."

ER GOOFBALL! She made it clear from the start that she liked you! And you knew she did, you just didn't want her to go with someone else. You didn't do that thing to seem cool, you did it so she wouldn't go with someone ELSE! So that was a big annoying thing that always bugs me at the end of the movie. 

Mr Peabody and Sherman Review

I really enjoyed this film. I thought it was a great homage to the show and a great father son movie. The animation in particular was quite beautiful especially in the lighting. I thought the jokes were quite funny and the characters nicely realized. The only conundrum was the hidden plot hole that some people mightn't have noticed such as Penny from the time travelling adventure should have disappeared or had been stuck back in ancient Egypt. 

I especially liked the use of the song Beautiful Boy being used as it was really fitting and quite a heartwarming moment in the film that kinda came out of nowhere. I also liked how Peabody was pushed to the breaking point and bit a human when the child care lady was about to take Sherman away. All in all quite a good movie. I'd give it 8/10 and would definitely see it again.  

Cartoon Characters that I shouldn't be attracted too but am.

Hey there, now this post is about cartoon characters I shouldn't be attracted to but am for some reason.
They are usually animals or under age and if they were real I wouldn't find em attractive but any who.

No. 5
The magic carpet in Aladdin.

Okay, starting off the list is the carpet from Aladdin. I don't know why but there is just something sexy about that carpet. It has personality, is funny and yeah... weird right\

No. 4

Roxanne from Goofy Movie

/Yeah, I don't know what it is but I just find this character design really attractive. I love the sleepy eyes and big pupils, the hair and the big nose. I also like her personality and I just think she is really pretty. Kicker, she's only 14. So that's why she makes this list.

No. 3

Stewie Griffin when he dresses up.

I don't know what it is about Stewie dressed up, especially in these two outfits but he is really cute as Zach Saywer and Karina Smirnoff. Yeah, this one is particularly bad because he's a baby, but I don't know, I think half of its to do with personality. When he looks normal, I'm not attracted to him but in these, I just think he's hot.

No. 2
Rainbow Dash

Okay, I don't know what it is about this character design, but that look and that personality just makes her attractive. She's confident and funny and really pretty in a tomboyish type of way. So yeah.

No. 1

Brian Griffin

Yeah, Another animal, but to be honest, I've found Brian hot for a while. I think he looks mature and boyish plus he is funny in how much of a jerk he can be sometimes without even realizing it. So yeah, If these character's were real I probs wouldn't find them attractive, but as 2 dimensional drawings, there's just something hot about them.

Top 10 Angry Beaver Episodes

I know that I rarely write about this show, but damn it if it's not my favourite Cartoon series of all time.
And with that, I'm counting down my top 10 episodes.

No 10
Open Wide for Zombie

I like this episode because I just like the brother's interaction in this, the dark plot and the surreal setting. Norb and Dag's beds float into a shack that is occupied by zombies but Norb thinks Dag is just being racist. Dag than finds that the woman who owns the shack is a voodoo witch and she tries to kill Norb and Dag for their teeth. The two escape but this episode is very original and very different from the shows usually stuff.

No. 9
Kreature Komforts

I like this episode because it is simple yet funny. The beavers "Slow" cousin comes to stay with them for a while and Norb is amazed how his cousin is able to live the simple life. He convinces Dag that they should do this too so the brothers become wild beavers. Only thing is is that neither likes it so go back to rebuilding their dam. This episode is funny because it makes fun of real beavers and the whole episode centres around how strange a real beaver is to the two brothers.

No. 8

Daggy Dearest

This episode centres around Dag thinking he gave birth to a mongoose and acting like a mummy to it for most the episode till he gets bored with it and tells Norb to get rid of it which his brother tries too but bonds with the Mongoose baby and the two brother's look after it till the mum comes and takes it back. The episode is funny for its absurd humor, seeing the two beavers take on a parent role and just how entertaining it is for the whole 11 minutes.

No 7

Dagski And Norb

This whole episode is a parody of Starski and Hutch and is ridiculously funny. The plot is about who's been stealing boxes, they keep making fun of the word karp and just make fun of the show in the best possible way. I think this episode is just the funniest out of all of them and that is why it makes the list. 

No 6

Trees Company

In this episode Norbert just wants some alone time so he can finish building his model but Dag won't leave him alone. Eventually Dag does go and has a party up a tree. Norb wants to be invited but when he gets up there he finds there is no one but Dag. I like this episode because I like the ending and how the two brothers decide to just party by themselves. Not the best but certainly one of the most heart warming and enjoyable.

No. 5
Stare and Stare Alike

In this classic episode, Norbert and Dag have a staring contest for a whole 11 minutes. I think one of the reasons why I love this episode is because it's plot is so simple yet so compelling. All this show has to work with most of the time is Norb's and Dag's chemistry and just seeing these two talk back and forth and trying to make the other blink is just hilarious. When ever I want to watch a funny episode I just go to this one. Classic and well written with such a simple plot, if this episode doesn't entertain you. well I don't really care.

No 4
Long tall Daggy

In this episode, Norb is horrified to find that his baby brother is taller than him. This episode is good because we get to see Norbert have a nervous breakdown over something so small but so vital to him. Dag rubs it in his face for the whole episode and Norb is less than happy to measure the next day their height. But this is when the episode becomes a personally favourite because Dag goes on his knees to make Norb look taller. After Norb thinks he's the tallest again he becomes his old obnoxious self again but what Dag did was personally such a nice thing and it really shows how Dag cares about his brothers feelings.

No 3
Pond Scum

This episode I like because I just think it's really well executed. Dag is adorable like usual and I think Norbert turning temporarily evil is done quite well. Plus I think the villain is funny and the two brothers going against each other is quite entertaining. I just like this episode. There's nothing particularly memorable about it but I think it works quite well.

No. 2
Alley Oops

This episode I like because it has a very good moral and is entertaining throughout. Norb and Dag go to a bowling alley where they have to compete against another group of brothers to play there. The kicker is is that Norb doesn't want to play because he sucks at bowling and Dag keeps saying "It's okay to do something you suck at as long as you're having fun sucking."
The Beaver brothers end up winning the game and Norb realizes that he shouldn't be so selfish and only do what he likes.

No 1
Faking it

And number one is Fakin' it. I love this episode because it just shows how much Dag cares for his brother. Norb pretends to be sick so he doesn't have to redo the damn and so Dag takes care of him. Norb abuses his power but and runs Daggett ragged. Dag then gets sick and Norb takes care of him. Dag only worsens until he is about to die and Norbert admits that he was faking. To that Dag just replies, "I WAS FAKING TOO!"
Norb gets pissed at this and threatens to beat up his brother but Dag just tells him how worried he was when he thought that Norb was sick and that he shouldn't have faked first.
Then comes the fuzzies as Norb says, "You were really worried about me?"
And the two hug and make up before both actually getting sick in the spot.

And that is my top ten episodes. I think to see if you really like the show you should check out these episodes in particular and see what you think.

And until next time!

Watch what other's won't. Bye!
