I've been taking my Driver's Ed, and so far it's going great. I have mostly been writing my book though, for those of you who don't know, the book is called: Theodore's Gate. The story of three children looking for an old man who's been missing for 30 years, and they get lost in other worlds while meeting all kinds of crazy characters.
Well ok I've exhausted pretty much all I had to say. Ummmmm Well How about I rate The animated movie I saw last year? That should go well
Toy Story 3: 9.8/10
The only thing I have against it is the humor involving Ken, other than that this had to of been the greatest kids movie EVER. It's got an ending that will make a grown man cry.
How to Train Your Dragon: 9.3/10
Ok this movie has two knocks against it, Toothless coughing back up fish, and A couple of references to Norse gods. Other than that, this movie was amazing, and the characters were all charming.
Despicable Me: 8.0
This movie was by far the funniest of the year. This slapstick movie was one of the more funny kids movies I have seen since Cloudy with a chance of meatballs. The biggest problem with it is that they having you cheering on the Bad guy, sure he's mostly reformed, but you are not quite sure what side of line he walks on at the end of the movie.
Legends of the Guardians: Owls of Ga'hoole: 7.0
This movie was AMAZING visually. By far one of the greatest visual accomplishments of all time. No world has ever immersed me as much as this one did. That being said, This movie's story fell flat on its face. It had great story telling elements, and many great points, but they also dropped the ball on a couple of important plot points. The shaky plot was saved however by incredibly charming characters, and a stunning world.
Oh, and the name stinks
For those who have not noticed, I fixed the comments so that ANYONE can post. You shall be able to use a Blogger account, Wordpress, Name + Email, or even Anonymous. SO I expect for ALL of you to comment.
(yes that mean you over there in the back corner with the sign saying: "You can't make me!")
Without anything else to say, I shall now ramble on endlessly.
No one EVER seems to put up things properly! They just leave DVDs lying around for me to pick up. Or legos on the floor grrrr. Oh yeah, the Packers are going to the playoffs, and are Facing the Eagles, this is going to be a shootout. I am cheering on the Pack, and hopefully we will finally see a super bowl this year. Well I'm done with my rambling, I got bored.
See ya
Please leave a comment.
I think all music should be used to glorify God, just like everything we say, do or think. Now, I guess I need to clarify what glorifying God is, because one song might not glorify God in one circumstance when it might in another. Obviously, the heart of the person making the music (or in some circumstances listening to it) matters more than the sound.
ReplyDeleteLyrics are important. More than most people realize. Instrumental music is ok, helpful music that can glorify God. Mindless lyrics don't help (me, at least). It turns me off, and either causes my brain to be irritated and confused at the lack of point or just turn off and be lazy. Neither sounds fun to me. Finally, there is no place for music with a bad point. Honestly, I believe that if we sing something (and mean it and understand what we're saying), we start to believe it. In that case, don't we all want to listen to music with a good, uplifting, glorifying point?
The reason why I'm writing this is I just left a "Christian" concert that (while it had *one* good song) did not, in my opinion glorify God very well with the Beatles, James Taylor (I think) music, not to mention the un-Christlike and awful (message, not just sound) love song *they wrote*! Did I mention this was a Christian, bluegrass band? Ah! It got me thinking, that's the only good thing that came out of it. See, God uses all things for good. I would not have even thought about points in music if it weren't for that "concert".
You still can't make me post! Oh, wait...
ReplyDeleteI know why you're being driven insane by Fireflies...Hate to say I told you so. :-/ ;)
