New Short Writing


The movie Dickie Robert's Former Child Star. I remember watching that movie a lot when I was 12 in 2005 when I first seen it. It was one of favorite movies and I watched it a lot. There is a scene in it where a public school student is dancing and they put sexual music and dancing movements to the scene. They wanted to appeal to my audiences age and have us fall in line with that perversity with the adults. Comedy movies did not have to ever go that far. David Spade and Chris Farley, in the 90's, made some very great movies and they did not have to sexual kids. It's sad that since the early 2000's that really started to happen and it was seen as normal comedy for both children and adults. I think back to these movies that I really liked back then and now I realize that it was a disturbing mix that should never have been. Comedy movies, if watched by children and adults, should be funny for everyone, but appropriate funny for everyone. There should never have been any perversity in a movie that is supposed to be appealing to both children and adults at the same time. A lot of us in general have went an awful way for quite some time and unfortunately we have just accepted it all to exist. It's awful. It would be great that we see these things as inappropriate in general and choose to not support that kind of material anymore, as well as stop giving past films approval still that should never have been seen as funny, sexual and cool for both adults and to children at the same time. We need to grow, world wide, and yes have fun and laugh but to appropriate stuff. Not to continue to laugh and see this inappropriate material as entertainment and normal. The world has been influenced in awful dark ways, esp since 2016... and I really see that we have to reshape our minds and polish our souls greatly. Genuinely. Our lives can change greatly once we all choose to. Let's start becoming all around genuinely good people. Let's be funny, but not inappropriate and degrading to ourselves or to anybody else. As adults, laughing and supporting perversity that is aimed to entertain both children and adults at the same time... is just disturbing. Not funny. It's not until l grew older that I realized how truly wrong and disturbing that this matierial was all along.
