My favorite movie line..


Favorite quote ever would be from the movie Scarface, starring Al Pacino as Tony Montana. Here is the quote:
Tony Montana: What you lookin' at? You all a bunch of fuckin' assholes. You know why? You don't have the guts to be what you wanna be? You need people like me. You need people like me so you can point your fuckin' fingers and say, "That's the bad guy." So... what that make you? Good? You're not good. You just know how to hide, how to lie. Me, I don't have that problem. Me, I always tell the truth. Even when I lie. So say good night to the bad guy! Come on. The last time you gonna see a bad guy like this again, let me tell you. Come on. Make way for the bad guy. There's a bad guy comin' through! Better get outta his way!

A cyborg comes into the classroom and...

the first thing that pops into my mind is the cyborg from the movie West World. The scary Yul Brunner robot that chases Richard Benjamin. So it would be weird to encounter such an android, because you wouldn't know what will happen. Is he going to be a good or bad robot, and what is his motives for coming in the room. He could just zapp you with his lazer gun or even worse, be like the Terminator




to where this evil droid is stalking you because you will bear the unborn child of a future leader that is meant to be destroyed. So alot of things will be racing your mind when a cyborg walks into a room.

 Pretty interesting that the first one to pop up was a Christian author who is an award winning novelist. Surprised not to see my Facebook page on there, but that means the privacy setting actually works from Facebook. :)

What is my favorite commercial?

I don't really watch television at all so I don't really have a favorite commercial that I have watched. But, I did listen to a funny one by the makers or Coca~Cola on the radio. It was in the style of Ethos: The image of Coke.  The audio commercial was funny, using many sounds and voice overs of a guy carpooling with others. He was attempting to reach his Coke to have a drink but it was wedged behind another person that was sleeping. So he was yelling at the driver to roll down the window to wake up the guy, but it didn't work. Then he told him to honk the horn, but that didn't work also so he yells for him to turn on the radio, and the driver does, and he screams LOUDER, and the music is blaring, to which finally the passenger wakes up, thus freeing his arm to drink his soda. It was very amusing and I thought it was funny to get the listener's attention. Coke being a favorite drink of mine, I enjoyed listening to it. :) So that's my favorite commercial on the air on the soda Coke. :) I would consider it Ethos. 
But here is one amusing one I found for DIET COKE :

Something with Logos commercials.

 And last but not least, here is Pathos commercial:
 Interesting commercials but I still enjoy the Ethos overall.

What is my favorite Horror Film?

Out of all the horror movies that I seen and watched through my lifetime, and there were many that were unforgettable, the one movie that stood out the most was Return of the Living Dead. I saw it when i was 18 years old and it was funny and scary at the same time! The undead were indestructible and craved for brains! I loved it! The two characters in the beginning, Frank and Freddy who were just supposed to simply close up shop and leave for the night. Instead Frank shows Freddy these capsules with the zombies stuffed in them and were hidden in the bottom of the medical supply basement. Little did they know that one slight hit to the cans would send off a poisonous spray that infected every living or dead thing around it. ( Scary, because, these were developed by the Military ) To have something like this occur in the big city would be total madness. It kind of makes you think of the possibility of what may happen. As the movie continues, they find themselves poisoned and afraid to tell their boss, who apparently knows more of the tanks then they do. The scary part, everything is coming back to life when they were dead, dead animals, split in half, and a dead cadaver in the freezer that is suddenly alive and screaming. As they finally mange to get the dead body chopped in pieces along with their furious boss Bert, yet it's still moving, they figure the only solution is to burn it and dispose of it quickly at a nearby funeral home with caretaker Ernie. But things are not over yet, the two men are sick and poisoned, the smoke blows into the rain which causes an acid burn to the people in it. The graves are awaken by this chemical that has spilled in the ground causing them to crawl out from their graves. Icky dead things....craving brains! Very amusing movie, that has caused 5 teenagers running for their lives and to join with the 4 men to fight off these dead people. Amusing movie and definitely a favorite of mine to this day. :) http://www.flixster.com/movie/the-return-of-the-living-dead#!lsrc:GSR-MOV-Title

If I were to visit a TV show which would it be?

It would have to be DEXTER. I just recently started watching the show and was intrigued with the first episode. I didn't know what the show was about until a friend of mine described Dexter's character to me: a serial killer that went after the bad guys. Sounded pretty cool, so to visit this show would be interesting and exciting. I have worked with some type of law enforcement so I am interested in all that goes on with police activities. Forensics and Private investigations were the one part that was very exciting and doing when I used to work for Gaming Inspector so this is something I'd love to do. Meeting Dexter would be something although he does seem quite the distant type that is very secretive only because of what he truly is. And last but not least, Miami would be very humid to be at so it would be a stretch to tolerate the hot and humid weather, but also nice to be along the sandy beaches and warm waters of the Atlantic Ocean. :D

Are you following your Passion?

From the moment I stepped into this school, I knew this would be a huge step toward my lifetime passion of my dreams. I always loved movies, ever since I was growing up and remembering dad taking us to the theaters. I remember the very first movie that I recalled that scared me to death, Magic with Anthony Hopkins http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Lx7smh7YHKg That is where my dislike for ventriloquist dolls became an obsession of what to avoid. But this alone also made me realize that my love for movies increased each year. From the beloved movies of Star Wars, E.T the extraterrestrial to Superman, Raider's of the Lost Ark, Jaws, I knew more and more that I was hooked. During high school, my collection began with the first movie I bought on VHS, which was Platoon. From then on, my video library increased and I owned all my beloved movies that I adored from childhood years to the newly released features. This continued to the next stage of DVD's. In my dreams, I always wanted to make my own movies, in my own style and characters, which I constantly imagined of. When I lost Brian 3 years ago, I felt I lost everything but in order to get through my grief, I purchased more movies, that increased my DVD library by 300. I saw it as a comfort to me for going through my dark hours and the movies uplifted me. When Brian was alive he always told me that I should go to school and make my own features...that didn't dawn on me until last year....around this time that I finally decided to take this step of going back to school and following my heart and passion. So there I was, signed in and starting classes in May...a bit intimidating since most of my classmates were all guys and so few women. But I made it through the 3 terms and now here I am a sophomore in the 2nd term of this year. It's amazing how much I have learned and what I was taught in these classes. With each step that I come to school is a moving progress towards my passions of which I am following. :)
