Is the song as catchy to you as it is to me? If so is it the lyrics, beat or the tone that keep you listening or something I’m missing?   In other words why is this song so catchy or not?

Get Out is a fine psychological thriller that I would be satisfied if it won best picture of the year against it’s opponents but that only is because Annabelle 2 is not in the running.  While “Get Out” has a moment or two of fear it is nothing compared to “Annabelle 2”. Anabelle 2 also has a better soundtrack, foley and overall better acting so why wasn’t it chosen instead of “Get Out”?  It probably has to with the script content for “Get Out” is a bit more original and a lot more politically correct.  Where the “white characters” happen to be the wrong people and the PC message is loud and clear.  “Get Out” is a great film that deserves it’s moment in the sun but I’m afraid that a bit of the sun is blinded by the PC crowd in Hollywierd.

*** 1/2  GET OUT- Overall great movie yet a bit more character development would have added another 1/2 star.

I’m far from perfect but I have always been there whether it be for more business, friends, causes and/or family. There are times I risked life and limb to make sure that I was the “there” to be found even when many others co-warded away.  Whether it be hurricanes, blizzards, injuries or avoidance of fun activities I make sure that I keep my commitments 1st which is why the initial view of the movie “A Futile and Stupid Gesture” was so disturbing to me.

Douglas Kenney one of the major founders of National Lampoon  lived the opposite life with no strong commitment to his marriage vows, business  (left for 6 months) or even his own well being (drug feign) but still was considered successful in society’s terms.   He traded it all in for just having “fun” at truly everyone’s cost even his own as he passed away before the laughter had a chance to stop.  To be honest initially I was envious of his lifestyle but as I looked deeper I realized that fun can be used to mask more serious issues which if not dealt with can end in tragic consequences.  Life maybe short but do we have to end before the true party has begun.

****  A Futile and Stupid Gesture- Hysterical movie that has many unique surprises and while disturbing is real to the subjects it portrays.

I was sent to investigate whether there was collusion between the President and/or Hillary Clinton with the Russian government during the 2016 Presidential election and after an exhaustive search  can state there was no direct connections. Both Presidential campaigns were not entirely clean in terms of discussion with Russian governmental agents but nothing that arises to direct collusion or criminal wrong doing. Therefore I believe it is best interest to the American people that this investigation closes and that the records of this investigation be released to the public.  I believe that this investigation was important because the American people need to believe in their government nobody what such an outcome might occur.

FOOTNOTE- G-D willing this is future news coming soon to the American people.

I knew I shouldn’t have walked in so why did I?  If I only I really looked at the trailer (below) or the critical reviews but I didn’t and instead was drawn in by the opening look. With a great sound score and foley I felt I should look at all the rooms before I exited. Yet the house became tiresome even before I went downstairs and yet I had to complete this tour of pain waiting for some grand finale. In the end the house looked fine from the outside but collapsed on me before the credits came up

* *Open House- Leave before it’s too late.

Donald Trump and Oprah Winfrey have been great jumping after the largest frogs but I’m going after a few tadpoles instead.  They have their mark on businesses that already are jumping and have added sparks to their growth while I will look for one’s that are just swimming along.  This way I can have plenty of tadpoles and if one sinks then maybe another can jump ashore allowing my growth to continue instead one large collapse. I may not catch that frog initially but if enough tadpoles convert I’ll have a better chance to be in the jumping.

It is reported “NOW” that Michelle Williams only received 1 % of Mark Wahlenberg’s paycheck during reshoots  of the film “All The Money In the World”, which begs the question did she ask?   Was Mrs. Williams afraid like most of us to bring up the question on how much they and others would be paid for reshooters before shooting actually began? Are we also afraid to ask as well whether it be if that gorgeous woman has a boyfriend, if we could try a new task at work, or even why someone treated us the way they did? Asking is not forcing it’s just giving us the chance to get the who, what, where, when, why and whom many lack the answers to. Therefore don’t be afraid to “Ask” because the answer might open up $$’s, Doors and even if it doesn’t at least you tried to get there.
