still old 
For ages people were bugging me to see ‘Little Miss Sunshine’ and after my experience with ‘Silent Hill’ I was reluctant. But I was feeling down over everything that has happened and decided to rent a non-thinking film for my Friday night ritual. ‘Little Miss Sunshine’ came to mind and I thought what the hell my week couldn’t possibly get any worse. Damn I couldn’t believe it after I watched this film they took the superficial comedy of a beauty pageant theme mixed it with the prehistoric adventures of a road trip and used original thinking to create a film that is more then worthy of its critically acclaimed status. Ok so we’ve all seen misfit old people trying to recapture their youth but I have never even caught a glimpse of someone like the grandfather in this film, he does drugs and doesn’t try to justify it, tells his grandson to **** a lot of women and teachers his granddaughter a strip tease as her talent for the pageant OMG I’m loved it. Then you have the uncle just when you think all hope is lost that Greg Kinear could ever truly act you have that part. It was realistic to a degree that allowed for entertainment without glorifying anything OMG A REVOLUTION. I swear to god this film restored my faith in the film industry, after this I keeping thinking ok surely there is going to be another film as brilliant as this soon.
Sitting through one worthless film after another I came to the conclusion that with the exception of ‘Little Miss Sunshine’ and some other films the west must be afraid of having original thoughts. Because it would seem that unless the film is taken from a pre-existing success eg theme park ride (Pirates of the Caribbean), a comic (Spider Man) (oh and these films although hugely entertaining don’t come close to being compared with LMSS) then the writers can not create an entertaining piece that contains any originality. It’s like every film that is coming out these days is just carbon copy rubbish that makes absolutely no damn sense. Take ‘Friends With Money’ what the hell was the point of that film? I laughed a few times but seriously it’s less then memorable. It’s like people are just churning out films for the sake of it. It seems like it’s more important to be remembered for the quantity of films rather then the quality, which is understandable look at Edwood he was deemed the worst director in history and he had a film made about him. But WHY? WHY? Can’t these people take their supposed talents to create something that is original entertainment?
