Recreating Superman
Back in the 80’s Superman was a juggernaut at the box office. The movies were awesome. It’s too bad we don’t have a Superman that can truly take over the silver screen today of back in the 80’s. It is very hard to recreate Superman. I think of a few directors are very smart in doing so. The Superman of today is kind of okay, but then again we have superheroes from Marvel comics, and we shouldn’t worry about this. In my point of view I think Superman Mania has vanished. We are up in arms of another DC comics superhero in Batman. There are still most people who are fascinated with Superman. Yet we have a hard time filling in the shoes of the 80’s Superman that was a phenomenon. Superman will be back in his prime, but we don’t know when that will be. It may be soon, or we have to wait for a long time. Most of us love the flying superhero. We don’t want him to fade away, but the comics are supremacy for the character, which are very successful. Someday we will see all the buzz Superman, and probably soon enough he will reign supreme again, once he did back in the 80’s. As of now we’ll stick to today’s superheroes who are reigning supremacy in the silver screens.
Vampires Hate Foods and Cereals!
How are you an expert in vampires eating meats, and Honey Nut Cheerios cereals? You’re silly!!! Vampires only drink blood. You think just because they go out much they need to drink sodas, and alcohol. You are out of your mind. They simply flow and live through the dark night. If they go out they wear their hoodies outside in public areas. Vampires are cool! Don’t get me wrong that we don’t piss-off them in any way. They don’t eat cereals and most of them think is plain silly. They just want to have fun drinking our blood, and deciding which sexy vampire girls are theirs to make out. You can have a girlfriend vampire if you want. It’s up to you! But, if you do, surrender your blood to them, and become one of them. In this level you’ll start to think that drinks, and foods suck. The only thing you’ll be drinking is blood, and hang out on the rough neighborhoods in the dark dreamy night. Count out all the cereals if you want to be a vampire. Choose blood and eternal life. Be an immortal vampire. You won’t regret it!

Gone With The Wind (1939)
Gone With The Wind is a film based on Margaret Mitchell’s novel Gone With The Wind. It’s a romantic historical film. It is set in the times of the Civil War. It’s about the romance between Scarlet O’Hara and the confederate sympathizer Rhett Butler. The novel was published in 1936 when it first came out. The novel is told from the perspectives of white southerners. The novel was a success, and so was the movie version. Once the film was finished the director decided to premiere it in New York, but the Atlanta people forced him to do it in Atlanta, Georgia. It took a while to settle it, but the Georgians achieved it. Some few scenes in the film aren’t the ones from the book. The film crew invented several scenes that weren’t in the novel. One famous quote in the novel read from the character Rhett Butler saying, “My dear! I don’t give a damn!” has changed to “Frankly, my dear! I don’t give a damn!” in the film once Rhett departs from the defeated Scarlet O’Hara. The film crew interviewed more than 1,400 women for the part of Scarlet O’Hara. Vivien Leigh got the part of Scarlet O’Hara. Clark Gable got the part of Rhett Butler. This film has won Best Picture at the Academy Awards in 1940.
I have seen this movie many times, and loved it. I would love to read the novel also, even though it has too many pages. It still is beautifully written. I have seen the movie in my twenties, and I still love it. When the movie came out in Atlanta, Georgia in 1939 it got great reviews from the fans.

His death at age 88 has encompassed both adulation and controversy. He co-found the distribution company United Artist, which gave him complete control over his films. His first film was The Kid (1921). He was accused of his communist sympathies, which led to his decline by satirizing Adolf Hitler in the film,The Great Dictator (1940). During an FBI investigation, he was forced to leave the United States, and settle in Switzerland. He wrote, directed, produced, starred in, and composed the music for most of his films.

The Killings, Sons of Anarchy, and Dexter
My favorite shows this year so far are The Killings, Sons of Anarchy, and Dexter. I am watching The Killings, and Dexter. I am waiting for Sons of Anarchy to start, and it starts next month. So far for the show Dexter I am currently in season 6. I am interested in how a serial killer, like Dexter gets away from everything that’s illegal. The other thing is he’s the Robin Hood of the city fighting crime in modern times. Instead of killing innocent people he kills criminals. Even if it’s not right thing to do it, he goes by his own agenda. This is what’s great about the show. I see different sides of Dexter, and the police force. The Killings is much decent. It is about cops that try to find criminals to bring them to justice. They do things by the books, and sometimes against it, if necessary, so the bad people won’t get away with crime. The one that I love the most out of all of this is Sons of Anarchy. It has jealousy, hatred, betrayal between criminals, and some cops help the bad guys. The biker gangs look cool, but I know what they’re doing is illegal and wrong. This is what makes it exciting: the drama. I watch the shows, because I like that kind of stuff. The final season of S.O.A. will be about Jax Teller avenging his wife’s death. We will see when Juice, and Gemma Teller are going to get killed by someone they know or Jax Teller himself does it. It seems to me that Jax hates Juice, because he thinks he betrayed him, and is a bad piece to his side. He also doesn’t get along well with his mother, and will soon find the real truth she’s hiding. Juice has tried to kill himself, but to no avail, because his biker gang friends prevented him from doing it. The most interesting part will be between Jax Teller, and Marilyn Manson’s character. I want to see what happens when they meet each other in jail. I am also watching Scandal, which is my other favorite show, also. This one is all about politics. The politics are dirty in this one. It has major drama.
