Inspiration in the oddest places
Recently I watched a movie that was terrible. Whoever wrote the movie did not seem to put much thought into the monologues of imagery that should have carried the movie. The characters in the movie were sad excuses for writers. Because of this I think it is now one of my most favorite movies. I realize that is weird, but I have a very good reason for it. When I watch movies that are just literary works of art and the writer speaks straight to my heart, I am intimidated. I am not challenged to write better because I feel like they did the best that could be done. When the script is dismal then I feel like I could do better so I do. I pushed pause several times to write down what would have been better dialogue or monologue. Nifty. Hey I bet this is kind of like life. We can look at the mistakes others make and be inspired to do better. Okay maybe be less judgmental but none the less inspired. Cheers to terrible ideas!
