Everything Must Go

Everything Must Go, a movie starring Will Ferrell, is brilliant. Some critics, and movie watchers alike, did not have much to say about this movie, except that it was not all that good. I disagree. Ferrell is just as amazing in his dramatic acting as he is in his comedic acting. The movie is a wonderful character study of Nick Hasley (Ferrell's character).



Hasley is an alcoholic who has lost everything in a matter of days. This should not have been a surprise to him because he was pretty much asking for it with his drinking mishaps (one in particular, but I do not want to ruin the movie for anyone reading this). Throughout the movie he struggles, and eventually, at the end of the story, comes to a sort of peace.


As I said before I do not want to give too much away, but it is a must see in my book. Everything Must Go is not an action packed, special effects, film. Do not expect this at all. The movie is a brilliant story, which is told through Ferrell's character's actions. Ferrell himself makes this movie worth a view!

The Heaviest Sword

“Belief is a beautiful armor, but makes for the heaviest sword” – John Mayer             What makes us believe in something? Why do we feel that we must believe in anything? Is there anyone out there who truly believes in nothing?  Or better yet, is there anyone in the world who truly believes in something?              Most children believe in Santa Claus.  I never did.  I pretended to for the sake of my parents, but by the time I was six years old, I told them I didn’t believe in him.  Many of my friends believed in Santa well beyond six years old and I didn’t let them know I knew the truth. I did often wonder how my friends never caught on though. Maybe they did and were just pretending, as to not ruin anyone else’s belief in the magic of good ole St. Nick.

The Girl in the Chair

The accident happened about a year ago. The girl didn’t know that she wasn’t supposed to eat the peanut butter that was in the bowl on the counter. The family had been experiencing rodent problems and the mother heard that putting peanut butter on the mouse traps was a good way to catch those little bastards. Just to be sure, she decided that she would mix rat poison in with the peanut butter. Little did she know her eldest daughter would walk into the kitchen while she was out in the garage gathering the mousetraps.

Mac Makes Me Think...

Reynolds vs. Reynolds: The Cereal Defense is yet another episode of It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia that is a must watch. For those of you who are not familiar with the show, get watching! It's Always Sunny is sick, wrong, hilarious, brilliant, and often exactly on point. This particular episode started out like most of them; with something absolutely ridiculous. But I do not want to discuss anything but the end, and no worries, I will not spoil anything as the scene of focus has nothing to do with the rest of the episode!
