The Ninja is Back Again

For years martial arts fighting have been involved in movies. But now it has come back in a totally different way. The new movie Ninja Assassin produced by the action-loving Wachowski brothers is the perfect example in having this unique quality. The film features a Korean Man playing the main role of the ninja. The movie is about a clan formed by a martial arts teacher, taking young children from all over the world and bringing them to a school where they are trained to fight and overcome pain with their mind. In return, they become the teachers sons and daughters and perform every task that their master gives them, including murder. The main characters who plays the ultimate ninja assassin, decides to take the opposite direction that his master has trained him for when it comes to finally proving himself a real son by killing a young little sword. Now a grown man, he decides to change his life, and help others so he can finally have his first breath of life.
I personally liked this movie. In the beginning it had really good plot setting behind everything. The way the movie was set up was amazing. I’m sure that special training camps are still being practiced around this world, but the way the movie showed it was clear and very realistic. The fighting was unbelievably incredible. The swords, spinning blades, and nun chucks fascinated me so much and to see how much technique and strength it took to use them properly. I never thought that such equipment can do so much damage to a person. For example, copping a head off or cutting a perfectly straight line on the body deep enough for have blood gushing out about 3 feet away from the body. That was one thing that the movie kind of took too far. I think that the producer over did the blood and death that was showed in the movie, but overall it was a great movie. It inspired me to want to do learn some type of martial arts which is what I intend in doing in the near future.

Celebrity Actions, Bad Examples?

No matter what type of celebrity scandal, it's difficult to keep up. These days, it seems as though celebs just can't keep themselves scandal free. Alright, so there are a choice few celebrities whose names rarely appear in tabloid headlines, then there are others whose names are rarely out of the tabloid headlines. It seems, especially lately, that female celebrities are finding themselves involved in scandals much more than their male counterparts. Let’s take the Spears for example. It all started when Britney’s marriage became to fall apart with husband Kevin Federline. He seems so perfect in the beginning until she married him and had two boys, Sean and Jayden. Now he wasn’t Britney’s hero, but her sons. When things got too much for Brit to handle, she did one of the most outrageous things ever that we all still remember till this day. She shaved her head. This definitely questioned whether if she qualified to be a good mother for his children or not. But eventually got help. Then came her sister, Jamie Lynn Spears. Everyone thought that she would turn out to be a proper young girl. But that didn’t last so long until January 2007 when she announced that she was pregnant at the age of 16. She’s no young, what was she thinking! Not to mention that her boyfriend, Casey Aldridge left her afterwards because he didn’t even believe that it was his. Moving on to Vanessa Hudgens. She was the perfect sweet girl in High School Musical and became an idol for many of the young girls that were fans of the movies. Sadly she ruined that for herself when some nude pictures were exposed to the public. It has been repeatedly said that they were meant for boyfriend Zac Efron, but then again who really knows the truth about celebrities these days.


It’s amazing how celebrities get themselves into the stupidest situations. I do understand Britney’s thoughts about wanting to have custody of her kids when divorcing her husband, but that is no excuse on how she took care of things. What she does definitely affects her younger sister Jamie Lynn Spear, but even Britney made more responsible choices. Young girls these days seem to be not taking care of themselves or even respecting themselves. At the age of 16 years old she announced being pregnant with from her boyfriend. And what about Vanessa Hudgens? Taking nude pictures that anyone who has access to if they internet could of seen it, whether they were children or adults. People these days no matter what age have seen things that we can’t possibly imagine. When these types of actions are being seen by fans who appreciate and respect them they are completely given bad examples to our new generations, which may be why our new generations have already started to become screwed up.

Selena Is Not A Twilight Fan Either!

According to Perez Hilton, Selena Gomez is not a Twilight Fan either. She first started talking about how much she dislikes for Twilight were. She complained about how vampires and werewolves are unrealistic and childish. But she contradicts herself because she stars on the hit Disney show, Wizards of Waverly Place. Perez points out that even in her shows vampires and other fantasy creatures appear. So why doesn’t she like them again? It seems that having ex-boyfriend Taylor Lautner is in one of the most talked about movies has something to do with her strong dislike about Twilight.


My basic overview about Selena’s dislike towards Twilight is ridiculously stupid. I’m almost certain that having Taylor Lautner being part of it has everything to do with why she doesn’t like it. I mean I’m sure that most ordinary girls would feel the same why. It’s the natural thing to feel when something deals with an ex-boyfriend or girlfriend. Why do we end up hating our ex- partners after we’re longer together? Is it because we can’t face the fact that we’re longer with them or that we’re jealous of their life without us? Whatever it is, I’m sure that Selena feels every bit of it. Not to mention Taylor Swift is current with Taylor Lautner, which may spice things up a little more. Ignoring the fact that Selena hates Twilight, There are plenty of other fans out there to respect and look up to it.

Chris Brown vs. Rihanna

Till this day, the beating that Rihanna received from Chris Brown is still fresh news. Rihanna still continues to talk about the abuse experience and continues to share more and more details with us. From Rihanna’s point of view, when she explains that it wasn’t technically Chris’s fault. She claims to have seen no life in his eyes when all this was occurring. She called that a black out. The fight all started when Rihanna said that she had a feeling that he was hiding something from her when he asked Chris a question and hesitated to answer. Of course like any other typical couple, when one partner lies, the other by instinct demands a direct true answer. And as we all know that Chris Brown did not take Rihanna’s pushing to tell her the truth so well. By the time the abused ended, she had a swollen, bleeding face. Thankfully, Chris Brown sees that he did major damaged to the one woman he loved. After a few days of this occurring, he turned himself in to the police and was ready to take all the consequences. He does question himself as to why he reacted so violently.

Unfortunately, unlike Rihanna who still loves him as sees this past horrifying event as a way for him to grow, have lost respect of Chris Brown. I don’t think I’ve ever heard another celebrity beat his girlfriend, boyfriend, wife, or even husband. It clearly shows that Rihanna does have a big heart and is filled with love and forgiveness. If that was ever up to me, well I honestly don’t know what I would do, but I would definitely take a really long time away from him. Chris Brown seems more focused and worried about his career. He cares about whether his fans still support him or not and if he still has a possibility for a good future. On the contrary, Rihanna is hoping the best for her ex-boyfriend. According to Gossip Center Rihanna specifically stated, “I want him to do well, have a great career, have a great life and grow up. And just take this as something you had to go through to grow up and learn.” This is a perfect example that celebrities still live a normal life, and living up to the mistakes they’ve made throughout their life.

Taylor Swift and New Boyfriend

One of the hottest topics in the celebrity life that is big news no matter is which celebrities are dating and who. It seems to be made a big deal about all throughout the media and magazines. The fresh new couple that almost everyone is talking about is between 19 year old young swinger, Taylor Swift and 17 year old “Twilight” actor, Taylor Lautner. They are both still denying that they’re not more than “just friends.” It seemed to be more than just dating when they spotted Taylor Swift, new boyfriend Taylor Lautner, and Taylor’s mom dining together at a restaurant. They’ve recently gotten together and attended a hockey game where the Los Angeles King and the Columbus Blue Jackets played at the city’s Staples Center this past Sunday, October, 25. So although they may be denying their love to the public, Taylor Swift has given clear hints that she and Taylor Lautner are an item. They’re recently working together on a movie called “Valentine’s Day,” that’s due next month. Young Taylor Swift is so anxious to see herself looking loved-up with Taylor on the big screen, she has begged movie bosses to let them watch the an advanced version of the film in private. She explained to CMT Radio host Cody Alan: "I haven't seen 'Valentine's Day' at all. So hopefully we'll get to do a private screening because we both wanna see it so bad 'cause our scene was so much fun to do."


Taylor Swift’s actions are great examples of how every young lady should introduce their new boyfriend to their family, especially their mothers. Now days, young girls are being careless and less respective of themselves. They also tend to hold in things as a secret or not even share their experiences with their loved ones. Seeing this how Taylor Swift and Taylor Lautner go about making their relationship stronger, is showing how even real stars regular people, even meeting the parent’s of the person their dating. Many young girls look up to Taylor Swift as a role model and likewise for Taylor Lautner. In this case, Swift got it easy. Usually celebrity news and gossip is set out to destroy you, but so far Ms. Swift has been making all the right moves, leading her to success in the future.

Chapter 2: Image Analysis

In chapter two of the Watchmen, there were a variety of images that could have been significantly important, but one stood out to me as the most important image of the chapter. On page 28 of chapter two, there is an image of Rorschach visiting where the funeral of the Comedian took place earlier that day. It’s raining and he’s standing beside Edward Morgan Blake’s death stone holding a single rose that was placed in front of the stone during the funeral. The rose Rorschach is holding seems a brighter red that the other roses.


This image is significantly important because it shows that there is at least someone who cares about the death Edward Morgan Blake, also known as the Comedian. A bouquet of roses is shown in the background lying beside Blake’s stone. Most of them seem as if they are dying, sort of losing their color. But when Rorschach picks one up, the rose clearly shows to be filled with life, and color. As it has been started throughout the novel, most of his friends or people who knew him, did not feel pity for his death, instead they felt relief and believe he deserved what he got.

In chapter one, we encountered almost the same moment and feelings. On page 5 of chapter one, Rorschach finds the Comedians yellow smiley face pin. As he picks it up and stares at it, he feels a sense of urge and determination to find out who killed him. In chapter two at the funeral, Rorschach receives a similar feeling when he holds the roses for the Comedian’s funeral. Unlike all the other super heroes, Rorschach was the only one who had the most sympathy and respect for him. Blake Edward was his partner and knew the most about Blake’s lonely life.

RANDOM

My life is a time machine.
Eighteen years ago, my eyes witness lights flashing down upon me

A second later, I cry.

One year later into the future I’m chasing chickens

They were like my pets,

I would wake up early in the morning go in the coral and feed them.

From before my time and after I no longer exist,

We will feed on the juicy tenderness of white meat

And that is how my chickens died.

My life is a time machine.

I close my eyes, and when I open them again

I’m making a wish from the 8 candles lit in front of me.

Everyone running around ignoring the tradition delicious deserts my mom made.

It is the year 2000, the police arrive at my house,

My sister’s excuse is, “I thought the power rangers would come?”

Ten years into the future, I’ve finally finished medical school

And I am happily married to my high school sweetheart with a beautiful baby.

Take it back nine years; I’m now no longer interested in chickens.

As my grandparents watch me in the coral,

I chase the ducks and mock the turkeys that live across the ocean in Peru.

My life is a time machine.
