The Lion King and it's affect on me
Hey readers! How are you all doing? I'm doing pretty good. I'm still pissed off from the 'Net connection being down for about an hour or so. I really do hate when it does that. I hate technology. But I'm so used to it that I guess it's okay. So, I got quite a bit done on my to-do list. I wrote down quotes in my quotes book through June 2008. Yay for quote of the day. Now I'm well ahead of myself. The next time I write them down will be for the Harry Potter series and that probably won't be done until... well, probably Decemmber. So, you probably noticed that I redid the Quizzes page. I'll probably have to do an actual 2nd quizzes page to do the next, because it's pretty long. Don't be surprise if I end up doing a second page later today. But, some of those things fit me so well. Apparently I belong in 1987. Ironic, as I was born in '87! And I'm Han Solo! Good times. So, I decided to order Season 4 of Scrubs via Disney Movie Club (yeah, that is interesting). Mainly because it's the cheapest. Best Buy sells DVDs for 35 dollars, Barnes and Noble's website sells them for about 31-33 dollars, and DMC had S4 for 29 bucks, so I got a better rate. Season 6 of Scrubs was pretty amusing. Poor J.D. is going through crazyness. What I really liked is the foreshadowing going on. I mean, Laverne gets into a car accident around the 14 and 15 episodes of season 6 and this is like 4 or 5 episodes before and SHE's being seen messing around with angel wings and talking about drunk drivers. So, I finally got around to watching the movie that literally changed my life and still has an effect on it. The Lion King. Now, I have two versions of the movie, the original VHS release (which no longer has the little blue and pretty thing on the clamback thing) and the Special Edition version. I watched the SE version. Mainly bcause the original VHS release is one of those things I plan to keep because it's special and it's worth a lot of me. Now anybody who's ever seen The Lion King just knows how amazingly emotional it is. And, I knew that given my new emotional cry-at-movies-tv-shows-and-songs-ness, I would cry and I did. Mainly at the parts most obvious. Circle of Life, the stampede and Mufasa's death, Can You Feel The Love Tonight, and a bit of teary-eyed ness towards the end. But, yeah, obvious. Who doesn't get upset when Mufasa dies. I mean, watching the movie was so amazing and so... affirming. I mean, no matter how many times I've seen it, no matter how old I get, no matter what is going on, that movie will always be great for me, and still have the same affect on me. The Lion King is such a wonderful movie and I'm so glad it was made. I'm so glad it's my favorite of all time. Thought/Quote of the day: "It wasn't a bear.
