i recently watched edward scissorhands. i didn't really know what to expect, but i figured i would love it. which i ended up doing. however, the movie made me sad and brought me to one, or a few, revelations. *i must warn you now, that if you haven't seen the movie this could possibly spoil it. consider this your warning*
i thought it was amazing and wonderful how everyone in the community fell in love with edward. being the pessimist i am, i figured they all would shun him and he would be even more dismal down in the town with houses color coordinated to their cars as opposed to his large, dark, castle with the amazing shrubberies in the front yard. but everyone loved him. except for the lady with all the incense next door, and a few rogues (aka teens). i was pleasantly surprised. i thought "how cool...society actually accepts him!" this is where my innocent ignorance became apparant and my happiness was shattered. a few select humans' stupidity end up bringing edward's happiness to a bitter ending. and that is how im going to leave it. i was saddened by the ending.
i think watching this movie at the beginning of the week made me a little bitter towards other humans this week. which i feel badly about, but can't help knowing i expected it in the movie. and it makes me sad how i went into the movie expecting it and then it really happened, even though i didnt want it to happen. its even sadder how it happened though. *sigh* it makes me wonder why people can't be more accepting and it makes me wonder how society got into such a sad position.
so...i dont know if i got my revelation across really, but i think i got a few important thoughts out there.
11 days until i turn 17...
13 days until sonshine...
15 days until charlie and the chocolate factory...
16 days until harry potter and the half-blood prince!
