Now before someone jumps at my throat screaming, "How DARE you hate those movies! They got excellent scores on Rotten Tomatoes and I love them, too!" hear me out. When I was growing up, I was a very sheltered person. I didn't have many friends since they grew out of toys faster than I did and started ignoring me whenever I came over to play. Because of this, I watched many Disney films or comedy films (none of them ever going above the PG-13 rating). The first R movie that I ever saw was John Carpenter's "Halloween" and I almost instantly fell in love with the horror genre! The only problems that I had with the film were all of the sex scenes. I mean, do we really have to see that? Is sex just SO important that we HAVE to have it in a horror film about a homicidal maniac?! It makes no sense to me. If any of you can explain this, then please comment below and help me out!
But the thing is, knowing all of the bad things that happen in Hollywood only wants to make me go more. Again, hear me out! A lot of Christians/Protestants that I know don't want me to go to Hollywood because of all the sinful things that happen there. And some people have tried discouraging me by telling me that I'd never make it out there with my morals. But that's the thing: Hollywood needs more people with good morals! It needs people who have Jesus in their hearts! It needs that ray of sunshine! The entire reason why I want to go to Hollywood is to witness to the people there about the love that I have in my heart for Jesus! I won't be one of those people who says, "Love Jesus or burn in hell!", but I will instead try to befriend the people there and try to show them through my actions what an amazing person Jesus is!
Will I succeed? Maybe. That's all in the hands of the Lord. But gosh darn it, I'm going to try! And nothing is going to stand in my way!
