Nightcrawler

“What if my problem wasn’t that I don’t understand people but that I don’t like them? What if I was the kind of person who was obliged to hurt you?” Lou Bloom, a hungry, sociopathic freelance crime cameraman played by the magnificent Jake Gyllenhaal is deeply unsettling. He’s a man on a mission; hell-bent on growing his ‘company’, he takes to the LA streets and hires a lowly intern (Riz Ahmed) to assist him in Lou’s endeavours to make as much money as possible by capturing horrific incidents.…

After that I finally was ready to cast out so I flipped the bell and cast. I started to reel my line very slow to make the fish look like my bait was alive. I finally felt a bite after reeling in and out slow. Something started to nibble on the big nightcrawler so I let it, take it and then I jerked back the pole and hooked it. I started to reel and I could tell it was big, it put up a fight reeling it in. Then finally I started to see the fish and, it was huge I couldn’t believe how big it…

crowded to my surprise but after unloading our gear and supplies we did our scoping for a good spot. And it didn't take long to find one. A good spot towards the back of the pong caught my eye. As I settled and baited my fishing hook with a nightcrawler, I cast out my line. Soon, I felt my…

the streets Los Angeles in search of a job. After witnessing cameraman, Joe Loder (Paxton) recording police officers saving a woman from a car wreck and selling the video to a local news company, Lou realises the potential job opportunity as a ‘Nightcrawler’. Review Similar to De Niro’s portrayals of Travis Bickle (Taxi Driver) and Rupert Pupkin (The King of Comedy), Lou is an ambitious individual who is prepared to go to sickening lengths to fulfil his deranged dreams. He holds no ethical…

The Day My Grandpa’s Boat Sank One day my grandpa (Sid) and his brother Jim and Fred Smelze were all on a boat and it was choppy water. Sid and everybody were in the boat. They were all fishing on a river named the Kaskaskia River. It was a sunny day perfect temperature when they left for Illinois. They were heading there from New Baden,MO. They started on a 1hr long drive. When they got to the river ,they bought a parking license. They started to unloaded the boat into the river. Fred…

back to the basics focusing on a team dynamic vs the regular people in New York. We get the sense of this trying to revert to the basics with a TV personality ranting about the X-Men. We start off with Kitty Pryde leading X-Men Gold team (Storm, Nightcrawler, Colossus, Prestige, Old Man Logan) against Terrax. Using Terrax establishes this as a revert to the basics being a classic villain from the bronze age of comic books. I am glad to see…

indemnity directed by Billy Wilder, nightcrawler directed by dan Gilroy, LA confidential directed by Curtis Hanson and training day directed by Antoine Fuqua, we find that these films have a strong theme of manipulation occurring. This manipulation that occurs between characters happens because of greed, lust, corruption and power. We see this manipulation in double indemnity when phyllis manipulates walter to help kill her husband for insurance money. In the nightcrawler Lou bloom manipulate…

Duck hunters are still finding it slow in November, but there has been slight improvement in the Public Shooting areas. In the Sacramento Refuge last Saturday, the average of birds per hunter was up to 1.16. This was the highest average in the area. Not very good, but the coming cold weather systems should get more birds moving. In the Los Banos area, the high of 2.3 was at Salt Slough, followed by Gadwall at 1.8, and Merced at 1.6. Those fortunate to be in private duck clubs usually have…

first. Then, the second biggest thing that jumped out at me was the logos in the video. When the fish and man are screaming at each other the film shows worms in a bowl next to the fish. Now most fishermen would think that the fish would bite on nightcrawlers or melee worms. Well that would be the logic way of looking at it but the fish really wanted Doritos. Of course, the trout wanted Doritos because it was a Doritos commercial! So, just the fact that it showed the “fish bait” behind the fish…

Anyway, we had to go get bait so we stopped at a bait shop to pick up some packs of Nightcrawlers which were large worms that are really vital for catching Largemouth Bass which was our favorite species to fish for. After getting the bait, we hopped on the freeway and started driving to our destination. The destination was a place we call the…
