I'm a little confused. For the people who know me, this is not a rare occurrence i know, but still bare with me. I was looking for a movie to watch(as many know I'm a movie whore). As I look through the many options I realize that people are so hypocritical.
Scary Movies have a range. There are the ones that you sit there 2 hrs and wonder "This is supposed to be scary? My in-laws are scarier ", and then there are movies that after you watch them, you sleep with the lights on for a week gripping a teddy bear with the door open and a baseball bat within reach.
But let me ask this, how is it, we as people can watch movies like Saw, or The Human Centipede and be just fine. Then when we see a story on the news about some guy who is killing people and then eating their body parts we all gasp in shock and get so worked up. Why is that? "Well in the movie it isn't real", or "It's only make believe".
We tell ourselves those things to deny the inevitable. The truth is, those things we see in those movies are real, they are not only make believe. How do you think they get it to look so realistic? How do you think they come up with all the psychotic ideas and story plots? They are all real!
They are real. We don't hear all of the horrible things being done to others around the world. We don't hear about every murder, or slaughter that happens. Every one of us is censored, yeah i said it! Censored! The news doesn't disclose every bit of information, because they don't have all of the information. Half of the time the news doesn't even know what they are reporting, they are just "doing their job".
It gets on my nerves to see "Based on a True Story" before any movie i watch. That so called fact about the movie just lets me know every single one of my friends, family members etc are all going to watch it. Even if the movie sucks they will make a comment on how its a true story, about how they were actual people. NEWS FLASH: The people that made the movie cant display everything that happened. They can't show every detail of what happened!!
This irritates me so much. We as a population are censored to a degree no matter how much we deny it.
