Short Film: The White Christmas

Happy day after Christmas!

I was going to post this short film yesterday but I completely went unplug for the rest of the day. It was nice, I spent time with family and visited some of my friends exchanging gifts. I also enjoyed being at home relaxing and doing nothing except for watching a little TV which included watching some episodes of The Scooby-Doo & Scrappy-Doo Show animated series. I really think Scrappy-Doo is one of the most annoying characters, he really threw off the vibe of the show.

Anyway, I really like this short film, The White Christmas because it invokes a sense of childlike wonder. I always feel like as you get older, we shouldn't lose our imagination and childlike wonder of the world. I love the magic of the holidays, it makes you feel like you can do anything especially with a little bit of imagination.

Short Film: Attorneys At Love

Good Morning, Happy Sunday! Or should I start calling it Short Film Sundays. I'm thinking of posting some of the short films I find interesting on Sundays.

I remember watching this short film Attorneys At Love sometime last year and I really liked it. It's a cute and weird romantic comedy. I think it's interesting that in this film there's an organization that gives you a glimpse into your romantic future and lets you decide if it's something you want. However, you won't remember anything about it once you accept the decision.

Total side note, I love that this short film features some of the actors from 9-1-1 and 9-1-1: Lone Star (Mark Elias was on both shows playing two different characters). There's also another short film, She Said Yes, that includes two more actors (Oliver Stark and Debra Christofferson) from 9-1-1. It's really funny and if you haven't already seen it, you should give it a watch too. I hope there will be another short film made with more 9-1-1 actors because I'd love to see Ryan Guzman, Aisha Hinds, Anirudh Pisharody and Jennifer Love Hewitt in a film together.

Video: Two "Ex-Mas" Short Films

I love watching short films, where else can you get a complete and interesting story in a short amount of time. There are two very interesting and heartfelt Christmas short films that I wanted to share. Both films center around exes, one has an interesting and unexpected twist and other has a funny introspective feel to it. I really enjoyed both films and I'd love to know what you think of them.

Video: "She Said Yes" Short Film (+ Mini Review)

I just finished watching the short film She Said Yes (which I also posted below) and it's really well-made and really funny. I laughed a lot watching this. I think Ben is a lazy, good for nothing, low life little weasel. I can't believed he pulled a Mr. Bean (for reference watch the Mr. Bean 7th episode Merry Christmas, Mr. Bean) and showed up with an empty ring box and expected his girlfriend's mother Debra to provide a ring. This guy is nothing but red flags and I hope his girlfriend Ana never marries him. Hopefully, she'll listen to her mother because although this encounter was funny for the viewer to watch, it was terrible for Debra to experience.

I really enjoyed watching this, if you're looking for a good laugh and you have a few minutes please watch She Said Yes. I'd love to know what you think of it.
