Hot Fuzz

2. Drugstore Cowboy I mention in one of my pages that I appreciate truth in film. This film is a shining example of that. This film explores the lives of people addicted to serious drugs. It opens with the ending of the story. Bob is seen in the back of an ambulance, then we go to the rest of the story through flashback, showing us how he got to this point. Bob and his wife Diane like to do drugs such as morphine and cocaine. To keep their drugs coming in they end up stealing prescription…

The man had shielded his face with his mother’s raincoat, yet a photo was snapped of him slumping down into the car waiting outside the court. Later his white face adorned the white people’s TV screens. The same photograph was used in several newspapers, which included most complimentary commentary inside. They said that even though the charges of him were horrifying, which made him a potentially horrible man only by being charged, the woman who charged him had committed perjury during either of…

Hard rock is a variation of rock and roll music that is highly amplified and usually rhythmically simple (“hard-rock”). This genre of music exists in partnership with other forms of rock and roll, such as garage rock, psychedelic rock, punk, and grunge music. These forms of music are under the umbrella term “Hard rock” in order to distinguish them from more radio-friendly music like pop rock ("Hard Rock"). Hard rock is intensely subjective to blues music. Traditional rock and roll is influenced…

“A tragedy is a tragedy, and at the bottom, all tragedies are stupid. Give me a choice and I'll take A Midsummer Night's Dream over Hamlet every time. Any fool with steady hands and a working set of lungs can build up a house of cards and then blow it down, but it takes a genius to make people laugh.” In comedy, the only characteristic shared between comedies is their want to make people laugh, and it can be difficult to pull off such a seemingly simple task. As defined by the New Oxford…

Ronan stood behind me, his hands on my shoulders, leaning down to whisper in my ear. "Imagine Vera, you could be the youngest queen in history. Only fourteen, all that power you'll have," his smooth voice paused, "all you have to do, is kill mother, and you'll take her place. You'll be queen, and I, I will be king. It will be glorious, ruling side by side for all eternity." His voice sounded so alluring. Dark thoughts swirled through my head, and dark feelings filled my body. I had already…

Characteristics of the MPDG? The 'Manic Pixie Dream Girl' (MPDG) is a trope commonly found in modern literature and film. This stock character can be found in a wide variety of works, from that of classics such as Truman Capote to newcomers such as John Green. The term 'Manic Pixie Dream Girl' was coined by Nathan Rabin, and was first used to describe Claire Colburn of the film “Elizabethtown". Rabin himself described the trope as "that bubbly, shallow cinematic creature that exists solely in…

It has been 5 years since the gang was all together in one place. Soda left and went to Florida to win Sandy back about 1 year after Dally and Johnny died. Him and Sandy have a daughter named Sugar now. At first I thought it was a little weird that they decided to name her that, but the moment I met her I knew the name suited her, she was sweet just like sugar. Cherry goes to a local college around here somewhere. I can’t remember exactly where but she’s close enough that we hang out almost…

I never knew so many alternative rock bands were also considered hard rock bands. So many people around the world are major listeners of so many subgenres of rock music. I found that the most popular genres are alternative and hard rock. Personally my phone is full of music from both genres of rock. The two genres seem to be so different from one another to have so many of the same bands in them. A very popular rock back these days Avenged Sevenfold is under both classifications. I guess this…

cold and smooth like the bottom part of a new pair of ice skates. As I started to pull the seatbelt across my body, I heard my mother scream, “Thereś a oil truck coming straight at us.” The cold feeling quickly rushed out of my mind and turned into a hot painful…
