The Movies (PC Game)

On my last post I told you about my love for music videos. What I didn't tell you was that I use to make my own music videos with a game called "The Movies". The Movies is a computer game and the point of the game is to start your own movie studio and make it successful. You hire your actors, crew, script writers, scientists, etc. But the fun part is the sandbox mode. In sandbox mode you can make a custom movie and you don't have to worry about money or your actors getting tired.

So this is how I made my music videos. I posted them on YouTube as I made them but since I was using copy righted music some were removed. Some are still up but are blocked in certain countries. If you wanna see one of my music videos click here. I chose this video because I think it has a good message.

But I didn't stop there. I actually tried to make a short film. Keep in mind I did these videos 5+ years back. My movies title is Dracula and it's 3 parts. I checked my YouTube videos the other day (first time in over 2 years) and to my surprise, Dracula Part 1 had over 100,000 hits! I was in shock! Last time I checked the view count was in the hundreds. Dracula Part 2 and Dracula Part 3 have a combined total of 50,000 views, and they are my 3rd and 4th most popular videos!

Now I'm not saying these videos are good, I was a teenager when I made them but I do remember working hard on them. Once YouTube started taking them down I kinda just gave up and stopped making them. If you want to see some of my videos you can still find some on YouTube. I already gave you a link to one above. Below you will find a link to Dracula Part 1, 2 and 3! (Actually just click on the number)

Let me know what you think! .....David

Music Video Parodies

Growing up I was kind of slow when it came to music. I really didn't listen to music much. But in 2005 I discovered MTV! MTV Played music videos early in the morning and late at night. I fell in love with Music videos. There were songs that I heard on the radio that I really didn't like, but once I saw the music video for the songs I grew to like them! I feel like a music video can make a big difference to a song.

Why am I telling you this you ask? I'm telling you this because as much as I like music videos, I really like a good music video parody. Last year I found a YouTube channel that makes awesome Music Video parodies! The channel is called barelypolitical and they make pretty good music video parodies. Their parodies are more than just funny, they are smart, very well made, and pretty well acted.

I will leave a link to one of their videos that I really like. Its a parody of Eminem's "Love The Way You Lie" feat. Rihanna one of the many great parodies they make. Link is at the bottom of this post! (Hopefully)

*See if you can catch the Harry Potter reference!*

Do you like music videos? What's your favorite music video? or do you hate music videos? If so why?

Finding Nemo 3D

I am a big Pixar fan! I have seen all of their movies with the exception of Car and Cars 2. The thing is I saw them on TV when they came out on the Disney channel. I haven't seen a Pixar movie in theaters.

So I am excited that they are rereleasing this in 3D! But many people aren't. Many people don't like 3D or just don't wanna pay money to see a movie they have already seen. I saw Finding Nemo on TV so I never really paid to see it. But this happens to be one of my favorite movies and I wanna see it on the big screen.

Are you excited to see it again? Or do you want them to stop re-releasing movies in 3D all together?

Breaking Bad

Breaking Bad is an awesome TV show! If you have not seen it, you really should. The acting is great, everyone is perfect for their role. The show just finished it's fourth season last year. It really is a must see show! The first three seasons are on Netflix.

There was a boy...

There was a boy, who wanted to live.
He went to school and did his work.
He had two loving parents.

There was another boy, who didn't care if he lived.
He was forced to go to school and do his work.
He had only one parent.

There was another boy, who wanted to die.
He didn't go to school or do his work.
He had no parents.

When the boys grew up,
The first boy got cancer,
The second boy became a drug addict,
And the third boy was a successful businessman.
All three boys had a son of their own.

So the boy who wanted to live, died from cancer.
The boy who didn't care if he lived, overdosed with his wife.
And the boy who wanted to die, learned to love life.

The first boy's son, had only one parent and was forced to go to school and do his work.
He didn't care if he lived.
The second boy's son, had no parents and he didn't go to school or do his work.
He wanted to die.
The third boy's son, had both his parents and he went to school and did his work.
He wanted to live.

The Perks of Being a Wallflower

I was surfing the web and came across this pic. I am really excited! I really want to see this movie! I would like to correct an earlier post where I said that the first Harry Potter book was the fastest book Ive read. Actually it was The Perks of Being a Wallflower.

Once I started reading it I couldn't stop! It was really good! If you have not read this book I really recommend it! It's nice and short so for all those people out there like me who get lazy when you see a big book, this one is short. But once you finish it you will pretty much wish it were longer.

The movie will be out sometime this year and is written and directed by the same person who wrote the book! I can't really put into words how excited I am for this movie! Emma Watson will be one of the three main characters and will probably have an American accent.

I don't know the release date yet but once I find out I'll let you know! .....David

Writing a Book

I wanna write a book. But I don't know what to write it about. It's very hard just coming up with a main characters name. I honestly think if I try hard enough I can write a book, but it probably won't be any good.

I really like to watch TV and I get really excited when I see a great show. I always ask myself where people get their ideas from. I heard that pretty much every idea has already been done before and most things are just recycled. (Like Lady Gaga's Born This Way.)

I will try to write something good this year! I just need to get started ....,David
