The Movies

In every movie...Well most anyway, there is always a catastrophe. The main character suddenly has everything happen to him/her at once. We as the audience feel bad, but at the same time, we have watched as this character has built up this mess through the entire movie. That's how the last two days have felt.
bad days just don't make sense to me. I feel abandoned. Like the former alpha male now merely a drone. Something is missing here.
in the movies, the hero character will fell down, but then miracously get back up and go on to win the day. Tolkien called that the u-catastrophe. When everything is dark, some light manages to get through. I believe it exists, but I don't think it is the case here today.
this isn't a movie. If it was, the writers would be bigger hacks than M Night Shymalan. The only real thing that a movie has ever given me is a line. Its a code really. A phrase to live by.
The dude abides.
