So I just went to watch a midnight screening of the new X Men film "First Class" It was pretty damn amazing, easily the best action type film Ive seen in a very long time. It had all the right elements, the casting and acting was incredible and the overall story was amazing. I thoroughly enjoyed it :) But it also called up a lot of philosophical issues, which is what I would like to blog about tonight, so you've been warned! :P
I always like watching films which have a supernatural theme to them. It really blows me away, the possibilities which can be achieved. It never mattered so much when I was younger, growing up, watching various films and tv shows, no there is a need for deeper understanding and explanation. But it also peaks my curiosity, because although they outline how the powers work in the film to an extent, it never reveals the entire inner workings and methods. This really makes me feel quite naive and almost ignorant to how things work. I have a very natural curiosity level, and a slight obsession with wanting to know as much as I can. I really am going to try my best to learn more about physics and biology, and explore just the slight possibility of mutations happening. It really does fascinate and intrigue me. It would be amazing to discover that there may be a way humans can alter certain states and their effects.
I remember the film also had a pretty amazing quote, which kinda went like "Jeckyl and Hyde was never about good and evil, it was about man taming the beast inside of him and learning to focus and control it" Which I feel is really true. Not in the literal sense, but in the sense that we all have a greater power within us that we seem to be covering up most of the time. I think a lot of people around me are really repressed and unaware of human capabilities. Im not even sure if they are interested in exploring this, as some people are quite happy ploodding along in life, which is all fine, of course :) Im just merely expressing an interest beyond the fathoms of other people. I always believe I can be faster, stronger and more mature. In time, I will make this happen and be able to report said changes and show that we all have a beast in us waiting to be unleashed and show ourselves our true power and capabilities. Either that or I live in a dream world hehe :P
Another theme I'd like to touch on is conflict. It shows how two best friends became enemies. It just seemed rather sad at how both parties became conflicted and the only result way to go their own way, but also encounter conflict with each other because of the opposite journey to the same goal. I think that holds true with a lot of friendships today...as much as people argue and fight, they still care about each other and wish each other happiness. Some people just simply give up and lose faith or they just simply dont understand the reasoning of the other person, which is really sad, but it happens. I guess everyone is trying to ultimately reach the same goal...and that goal is happiness. If their way to happiness means not being your friend or lover, then so be it. After all you both want each other to reach that goal, why stop them? Im just pretty sad at all the people who have wished to cease all contact with me through silly reasons...I really enjoy friendship and talking to people, but it seems lately people are distancing themselves from me and this makes me quite sad and makes me feel like something is terribly wrong with me :(
I think they are the key points I really needed to let out tonight as they were really bugging me during the walk home from the cinema. I just thought I'd share these thoughts just in case you have the same thoughts and think you're strange for thinking them, well you're not, cos Im quite the freak and you'll be pleased to know I think about as many crazy things as you do :P
I really appreciate my life and I feel its heading into a really positive direction. I know Ive been all over the place lately and perhaps even a bit depressed, but I take full responsibility and Im not even sure why I let this happen to me, Ive been slipping lately because of feeling like this, and I dont want to feel like it any longer. I dont enjoy being upset, its most definitely not like me. If I have upset any of you lovely people in the slightest lately, then I must apologies and hope that I have shown my apologies directly to you.
I miss you all, goodnight :3
