13 Reasons Why (2017–2020)

all the pain and doubts of the teen years

[10/10 · 2 April 2017]

I am lucky to be 30 and that my high school times were phone/social media free, yet there was bullying, we just didn't use this term for it.

Being a teenager is a time of many doubts and insecurities, we not mature enough to deal with things.

13 reasons why just show us all how things can escalate pretty quick in the digital era. Yet, it is highlighting the same issues I had to learn how to deal with and the I bet people before me too, girls more than guys .

We learn from early age we are objectify and labeled by guys, and how it affect our confidence on ourselves many years after.

It also show how adults inability to remember how this stage of life can be, and therefore cant relate or identify with all the issues and things that affect the live of kids in school.

More than that, the show brings to light something that has become common and acceptable, victim blaming, if a girl get raped, she probably sent the wrong message to the guy and therefore it is never the guy fault if he forces himself upon a girl. How many colleges try to hide this facts and protected the criminals. After all this is just boys being boys.

There are so many other issues that the show brings to context, one of then is on one of Hannah's phrases : " We are all stalker" We like watching others people life but we are unable to take any kind of action that could make the difference in someone's life.

I have watched the series in 2 days, it is emotional, it is disturbing, it is a fiction that however represents a reality of many lives.

We need that parents and teenagers watch it and maybe, somehow we might be able to cause some change to the sick world we live in.

Once Upon a Time: The Stranger (2012) Season 1, Episode 20

I am still on tears

[10/10 · 1 May 2012]

Why i don't like Pinocchio? Because I cry from the beginning to the end all the time, all Pinocchios. Its worst than cut onions. This episode was priceless, for me the best episode ever, will die waiting for the next season and I want punch Emma in the face and honestly after I found out why Regina hates Snow White so much, I kind of understand her. This series caught me so badly, I am a supernatural fan, but Once upon a time has all my love and respect. Well, as I must write 10 lines minimum, cant leave without bring up how much Robert Carlisle and Lana Parrila add to the show, both of them bring so many different emotions, that I wish in the end both get their happiness, Regina with her father and beloved and Mr Gold to don't be the dark one anymore and have his son back and also marry Bella, as he apparently is the Best here.

Yogi Bear (2010)

Lovely and faithful to the original

[10/10 · 12 February 2011]

I am wondering why so many people come with criticism on this movie. First of all, this is a kids movie, based in a cartoon created in 1958. I watched that so many times, I am 24 years old and I still love watch it. I love the clear and simple jokes and how all the story goes around, well, I rather see Yogy Bear (movie or cartoon) than have to see aliens becoming children, robots, creatures that I never heard about. Because this is what keeps our kids on TV now days, when its not the video game. So, please, people that come to criticize, please, go find a movie where you find something interesting for yourselves. But don't come here with your awful words for something that makes so many kids laugh through decades. Its not fair, its not nice. Yogy bear will be in my memory forever and I am pleased that the movie made the best that could do.
