Hi Everybody,
Last night, I went to the movies to see Hangover 3 with one
of my buddies and to be completely honest with you, I hated every second of it.
The movie itself was a complete disaster, and I highly recommend that nobody
waste his or her money on seeing it because it was garbage. Also, the whole
movie going experience just sucked in every way possible. This experience
really validated my reasons I have for not going to the movies. Let me explain…
So first off, we arrive at the Loop and there is literally
no parking anywhere to be found. We had to drive around for 15 minutes before
we finally got a spot in the back of the theater about 2 football fields away
from the entrances. Walking into the theater was like walking into a zoo, I
mean literally there had to be at least 500 people in that main lobby. As a guy
that just really doesn’t like people for the most part, I hate that shit, I
can’t stand big crowds full of loud and obnoxious people, because it makes me
lose faith in humanity. After making our way through the mass of people we
finally get to the ticket line, and the line is 30 people long at least, with
only 2 people working the ticket stands. At this point I’m saying “Yea let’s
just be out and go home instead,” but no instead we wait 20 or so minutes in
line to get a ticket. When I finally get my chance to purchase a ticket, I
almost had spontaneous heart attacks… one because the tickets were $12.50
(ridiculous) and two because I lost my debit card somehow in this whole shit
show and I only had a $10 bill with me. Luckily my friend had some money he
could lone me, so I was good there.
After we get our tickets my friend goes to get some food and
a drinks, and while he was willing to wait in a 10-minute line and pay $5 for
shitty artery clogging popcorn and an overpriced sugary chemical liquid in a
cup, I was not and went into the theater to get seats. I got my ticket stub
ripped and started walking down the hall. As I was looking around, more
specifically at the floor, I noticed the floors were covered with popcorn. Literally everywhere I looked there
were remains of kernels or flattened pieces of popcorn. That annoyed me, like
really no one in this goddamn place has a vacuum? So I go into the theater, up
the stairs and 2 couples are making out right there in the back row, tongue and
everything. Wow that was like the universe saying BOOM! IN YOUR FACE! You’re single! I hate PDA, btw, lol. (See what
I did there?)
I made my way past the land of the babbling idiots, the line
of agony, the food concessions of obesity, the dreadful floor of flattened
popcorn, the awkward PDA couples, and I’m finally in my seat, ready to watch a
movie and relax. This movie is gonna be pretty funny, I thought to myself...
Just sit back and enjoy it. Boy was I wrong. Well the problem is that we were
pretty early to the movie. Usually when you’re early to a movie they play some
stupid trivia game hosted by some no name host with corny one liners who can’t
act or do anything to amuse you. Apparently that’s not how it works anymore. As
I’m sitting there waiting for this movie to start, there was a never-ending
flow of advertisements being force fed to this audience of people who seemed
mesmerized by each of the ads, almost appearing to be hypnotized.
Doritos, Taco Bell, Pepsi, Audi, BMW, Jaguar, Old Spice:
those are just the ones I can remember off the top of my head, all had ads
promoting their products.
What I actually saw on the screen was not good advertising
in any sense, and it blew my mind because I realized what advertisements are
all about at their core nowadays: mind control and propaganda.
See, if you step back and take a look at our world and our
society right now, everything is essentially fed to us through media outlets:
TV, internet, newspaper, Twitter, magazines. What do all of these media outlets
have in common? Advertisements. Ads with these preconceived ideas that are
force fed and drilled in your head constantly. They all say look this way, dress like this, drink this,
eat that, or you won’t be cool.
That’s really all ads are about now; trying to promote being “cool” and to fit in with what these
companies WANT you to think is the
normal way to be, or the normal way to think or look like.
They want you to feel less beautiful because you maybe
aren’t as good looking as Meagan Fox, or not as handsome because you’re not
Bradley Cooper. But in reality, these people, these celebrities, are just as
real as Santa Claus. They are figments of our imagination, made out to look
like “perfection”. Well let me tell you something, there is no such thing as
perfection.
What I’m really trying to say is this: Don’t be a victim of
the society we live in now. Most of the time the information you see or hear is
false or distorted in some way, especially on the Internet and anything
involving Hollywood stars. Advertisements are made for people to feel like they’re
not good enough in some way, unless they have this product. Well let me tell
you something… Every single one of you is awesome, and however you are made up
is how you were meant to be. God didn’t put you on this earth to be a copy of
everyone else, you were put on this earth so you can be yourself, to grow into
your own person, think your own thoughts and live your own life.
This whole world the media and Hollywood creates for people
is fake; a bullshit portrayal of what reality is. People who are reading this:
stay real, stay true to yourself, and don’t let anyone or anything think you’re
less than what you are.
Oh yeah back to my original point:
·
Movie theaters are shitty
·
Hollywood is just a bunch of schemers
·
Illuminati is setting their plans for total
world domination in motion as we speak, and they are trying to program us through
the internet, movies and TV so whatever controversy happens in Washington seems
like a movie, thus distorted our view of reality.
That’s all I got. Happy Memorial Day and thank you to all
the veterans who have served our country.
God Bless America.
Thank you for reading,
