Don't Breathe Spoiler Alert!

I went to go see Don't Breathe last night and I thought it was amazing. I don't usually like horror movies as these days they seem to contain the same jump-scare tactics. I am sad to say that usually when I go see these movies I either fall asleep or laugh throughout it.
Don’t Breathe I thought was going to be the same thing, but when seeing the trailer for it I thought it would be cool to watch. I went believing that these teens were going to try and rob this poor blind man’s house and get thrown for a loop when the old man turns out to be an army veteran and kicks major butt. So I went believing that I was going root for the old man because those kids had no right to be in his house.
The first thing that happened that started to push me over to the teens side is seeing Rocky’s (Jane Levy) home life and hearing of her abuse. When hearing and seeing these things you want to see her succeed in getting this money and removing her little sister from the environment.
This was a good point, but I still believed that they were in the wrong because you discover that not only is the man blind he also lost his daughter when she was ran over by a car. She did not get justice either, the girl who ran his daughter over was rich and her family paid the man off to keep quiet.
This all being said they decide to do the burglary with the man in the house before they even knew he was blind. So I was still rooting for the blind man because of their stupidity and arrogance.
They commence with the burglary and the first guy, Money, gets killed by the old man. Alex (Dylan Minnette) who was first turning out to be the only smart member of the group by leaving and calling it a quits on the burglary, returns to save his obvious crush Rocky. This earn a loud groan from the crowd.
Throughout the movie the fight went on and it is revealed that the old guy is actually a terrible person. He had kidnapped the girl that killed his daughter and was forcing her to give him another. Yes, he impregnated her.
The old man and also Alex made astounding revivals during the movie. Also though the old man was a terrible person he get points for style in ways of getting around and attempting to kill.

Overall I thought the movie was original, clever and unpredictable. This all made for one of the best horror movie I have seen in a while.  Word to the wise when being in a horror movie situation from my mother: Crazy don’t kill easy. Hence make sure your villain is dead before you celebrate.

Getting into Radio

Image
As we continue to talk about entertainment and all variations of this I think there is one that I have been leaving out. Recently I have been working with a with a public radio station and it has been eye opening to the entire platform.  A lot of people think that radio is just the local music channel you listen to. This channel play music and commercials and might talk every once in a while. While that is a type of radio that is not all radio is.  Public radio is news and interesting stories that you can listen to. They have everything that happening now all around the country and internationally. They also have interesting stories about prisons, ticks and convicts. Its like Facebook to your ears.  The process of public radio is also very hard, but also very cool. As an intern I do stories that air in a special segment. Though this is only one type journalism it works about the same way. You find a story, you go after the story, you get the story and you broad

Wonder Woman and Feminism

Image
With the recent release of the Wonder Woman movie, I only find it right to give a reason of why this is such a big deal.  Wonder Woman was created as a figure of the feminist move and has been fight for a spot on the big screen for years. She has been in comic since 1942 and this her only film on the big screen. As the figure of Feminism Wonder Woman has been through her ups and down in a world of men. Her outfit, origin, powers and equipment have all gone through changes because of this. Censorship and sexism is the only way to put it when talking about why this has happened.  Through the years some things have stayed the same for the most part. She is borne of the Amazon Hippolyta, queen of the Amazons. She was raised on Paradise Island and only left when her love interest Steve Trevor and learned of the unforgiving world that we live in. She is Princess Diana of Themyscira, but goes by the alias Diana Prince.  Though she has been in many animated movies and

As I continue to talk about comics and what is happening with the in the entertainment with them, I thought it would nice to help those of you who are just getting in to comics. In this post I will tell you my way of getting into comics.  1. First you want to pick a direct character.  Whether is be the Flash or Iron Man you need to pick a place of jumping into these stories. Most of the stories are intertwined with other characters and groups like Justice League and Avengers. Even though this may not be the only character you want to follow, its good to find a starting place because these stories have a lot of twist and turns. These comics have also been going on for a very long time and have changed with the times. So your character might have different people that take the name and you need to be specific on what or who you want to follow. So for Flash you have to pick between Jay Garrick, Barry Allen and Wally West to pick which The Flash you want to follow. Some peop
