Movie Reviews and some Bball

It has been quite the exciting week. No, not really, but I did manage to stay busy.
Chris Paul is the best point guard in the NBA and showed it in his 33 pts and 14 assists to beat the lakers. And dont give me this Derrick Rose is MVP so he is the best pg. He is not. Chris Paul got robbed of MVP by Kobe a few years ago. Chris averaged 21 and 11 that year and they just gave MVP to Kobe because he is Kobe. Terrible.
If I didnt tell you already at school, I got new bball shoes today, they will be here in a week or so, but they are pretty sick. I feel weird for getting excited about getting new shoes but whatever I needed a replacement for the Hyperdunks I am not going to wear. These shoes are actually supposed to hold up...
So I watched the movie Avatar for the first time. The one with the smurfs. It sucks. I can't believe it is the highest grossing movie ever. It made it one my least favorite five movies of all time.(The other 4 are Somewhere In Time, the original Italian Job, Ghost Rider, and Eragon. Dragon Wars got bumped by Italian Job simply because Dragon Wars knew it was bad.) I was waiting for Luke Skywalker for half of the movie and for the rest of the movie I thought I would start hearing Phil Collins music start playing, "I want to know! Can you show me?!" Just flat out bad.
Another movie review for you now, I watched a few this week. Voyage of the Dawn Treader really wasn't that bad of a movie, but really Fox? At this point, what audience do you lose by following the plot line of the books. They ruined Dufflepuds(the one footed dwarfs), the book of spells, Eustace being a dragon, the island of darkness, and the star lady. Dufflepuds made themselves invisible because they were so ugly. Lucy did not want to look like Susan, she wanted to know what her friends were saying about her, which taught a valuable life lessons that I still remember. Eustace being a dragon was not "extraordinary things happen to extraordinary people." It was a symbol that whatever you fill your heart with you will become. In Eustace case it was greed for the treasure, so he turned into a dragon. The island of darkness was simply passed by, which I realize now probably was meant to tell people to just avoid darkness aka sin when it presents itself. Lastly, the star lady was supposed to be freaking hot and Caspian ended up marrying her. She was supposedly hot, but looked like she was an angel from a 60s movie all lit up and stuff. I feel like she was just part star in the book too, but my memory isnt great. I want them to follow the book so I can learn life lessons instead of just having a movie with tons of weird random elements that don't make sense. People who hadn't read the book probably walked out thinking Lewis was a stoner or something.
Well, New Vintage moved to Sunday nights officially, so I guess that makes my exit from Intersect simpler. Heck, a couple of kids accepted Christ last night so that was awesome.
I am unhappy with GFU's bball coach because he doesn't feel the need to email me back, so I am done bothering him. I will just make him pay attention to me next year when I make my walk on attempt. I am not bothered by his seeming to not think much of me. He has never seen me play and I have had two torn ACLs, I don't expect a lot. What bothers me is the lack of common courtesy. Like Seriously, you represent a Christian college, I feel like you should at least not be rude. Is that too much to ask? Apparently.
In other basketball news, I feel like I am improving pretty well. I am working on developing a Chris Paul style floater, while remembering what PGC taught me to hunt the paint, and then remembering that I am actually good at ballhandling so my head should be up the whole time looking for passes. We will see how this goes when I get healthy and playing competition, but I feel like I should be a better team player for it and not just know as a shooter. Though, of course, I am fine with being know as a shooter also haha.
I feel like I didn't say anything really moving today, well more meaningful than my usual little tidbit about what I have learned recently. So if you feel like you would like a bit of spiritual lesson learning, Andrew Schwab wrote a blog today about loving your neighbor at http://www.andrewschwab.com/blog/. Thats all folks
