CAN'T SLEEP

So I can honestly say that I can't sleep and it sucks. This has become a repetitive thing and is really annoying. Thoughts just roll through my mind like a never ending story. I just want to sleep. So i'll just say thoughts that pop in my mind. Twins lost again for the fourth straight time. I realize that they clinched the playoffs already, but seriously, be on a roll heading into the playoffs. Packers also lost tonight, but that is good, since the Vikings are not off to the best start. Tonight before bed I watched Changing Lanes starring Ben Affleck and Samuel L Jackson. The film was a large moral crisis and a decision between good and bad. What does someone do when they have leverage? Can they be the bigger man, and pick the wise choice, or be dumb and make a mistake? These questions were constantly running through my mind. The camera in the film was moving constantly, which was a positive in my opinion thinking back on it. I did like the film I can say that, but I think the moral battle really absorbed my mind. Decisions like this are constantly becoming the source of many films. They provoke ideas that most people never thought they would have to think about. I can use Dexter again as an example. How is that we humanize a serial killer and sympathize with the struggle he deals with every day. In other movies,  theres times when there is just a down right awful person, who the filmmaker makes the audience believe that something horrible should happen to them. This is just an odd realization for which films can do. Films hold so much power. Yes, they do harm sometimes to people, but they also bring a lot of good to people. The audiences in the United States should be happy that the "Hollywood happy ending" takes place in many or most films. It brings joy to know a happy outcome. In other countries, they show "real life," and that not every scenario has a happy ending. That is real life, but one aspect of a film that sometimes isn't accounted for or that many forget is that people use films as an escape whether good or bad. Feel good movies provide happiness to everyone. In many cases the happy ending is cheesy and very predictable, but think about your favorite movie, how does it end? Does it have the classic Hollywood ending? Is it a pleasant ending? Why do you like this film? I could honestly talk hours and hours about film, what I like, what I don't like, but there isn't enough time in the day. Television shows also provide an escape to an audience because week after week they tune in to see what happens in the lives of the characters. In my opinion, the best way to watch TV shows is on DVD  because for one, there is no commercials, and you can see what happens in the next episode instantly. I highly recommend Friends, Scrubs, That 70s Show, King of Queens, Home Improvement, Dexter, Entourage, The Office, Psych, How I Met Your Mother, Big Bang Theory, White Collar, and NCIS. All of these are great shows and offer various types of entertainment. I suggest starting one of these series ASAP if you haven't already. Well I think I may have tired myself out, so I'll try to fall asleep. So I'll sign off as I usually do, so long to all, may your dreams come true.
