Forrest Gump Was Wrong.

"Life is like a box of chocolates, ya' never know what you're gonna get."

In my opinion, this quote from the beloved classic movie, "Forrest Gump" is flawed. (How is it flawed?) I'm glad you asked.

Don't get the wrong idea, I love the movie but, a box of chocolates usually comes with a chocolate map. In which case, you would know exactly what you were getting.

Life doesn't come with a guide. We all wish it would, though. It would be nice if, when meeting someone, you could just look at a piece of paper and there it would say,"Easy to talk to," "Likes the same shows," "Talks way too much about problems," "Get's a weird tick when listening to country music,"or "Good listener...". You get my point. We don't have the aw-inspiring chocolate map of animate existence. If we did, it seems like we would be farther along in the world and there wouldn't be as many wars.

Good Movies!

I know a good movie when I see one. And just like everyone else, I start judging it when the movie begins. For instants, Moulin Rouge.
One of my friends is pretty much obsessed with this movie. When she heard I had never seen it, she told me I HAD to watch it.
She got the movie from her house and we sat down and it...began.
I watched it for maybe 5-7 minutes and I thought it was the dumbest movie ever! But, hold onto your hats! I watched a little longer..and I was hooked.
"The greatest thing you'll ever learn, is just to love, and be loved in return!"
This quote is the whole point of the movie, and it's mentioned more than 3x. I absolutely love this movie. The music is awesome, the effects are cool, and the people are weird. BUT! If you don't want to cry, don't watch it.
Ewan McGregor is a wonderful actor and this movie needed him. And you gotta admit...he's not to bad on the eyes. (:
