Shannon Goes Viral: Inside out- Outside Edition

So a video a film student made of the movie Inside out surfaced because it was an edited version that didn't show the parts with the emotions, it only showed the parts with Riley and her family... so that is kind of cool.

I was expecting to really love this edition and to cry a lot from it because the parts with Riley and her parents were really what moved me while watching the movie and thats what I connected with, thats what made me cry. I didn't cry at the part with Bing Bong because that was a little obvious to me... but the part where Riley finally told her parents how she was feeling really made me cry. And then they hugged her and that's what really I thought was the heartwarming part of the movie that made me cry harder than any other movie...

Oddly enough, while watching this version, I didn't cry. I wasn't that emotionally connected to it either... and frankly... I was a little bit bored. I feel like the parts where we see her emotions and we know why she's acting makes those scenes stand out a little better and just overall makes them sooo much better in general. I feel like it makes the movie to be honest. Not that it was bad without that at all... but it was so much more fun to watch to see what was going on in her head and it made me understand it a little better.

What I loved about Inside Out was that this way of seeing the emotions as actual people controlling your brain made a lot of sense. It just really worked for me, I believed that that was how it happened. Everything that was going on with Riley was familiar to me because I feel like I've been through it before. Everything that was going on in her head was familiar to me, but I haven't actually seen the people controlling me so I don't really know what they're like... lol. Cause clearly there are people controlling you.

And I just got that thats what happens to everyone at points in their lives, it wasn't just for Riley... but Riley's parents had it and they've learned from it. Everyone's emotions go crazy at some points and sometimes they get more control.

So... yeah. I'm not saying the film student did a bad job... but it kind of took away from what made this movie what it is and I didn't connect to the scenes that I connected to in the movie the same way because of the very literal lack of emotion!

Hope you guys liked this! Check out the video if it hasn't been taken down and if you've seen inside out... and Have a great day!

Disney Store Closing Haul

So if you read my post from yesterday- you know that I love The Disney Store, but it is unfortunately closing. I did pick up some things from the store that I thought I'd share with you guys! I did get a couple of t shirts. One is a Star Wars shirt, which is technically a men's shirt but I thought it looked really cool and I don't like that Disney doesn't carry the same things for men and for women. For the most part they look unisex to me and a lot of their men's stuff has characters I like better. Like the star wars shirt for women was grey with pink lettering and had no pictures, but the mens shirt had a really cool metallic silver logo on black clothing with pictures of all the new characters and Luke inside of the letters... much cooler! So I got that! The other shirt I got is really funny and it has Sleeping Beauty on it and it says "I Woke Up Like This." Which I really liked! Super cute and funny and my niece likes it when I wear shirts with c...

Scribbles About Life: 3.10.16

Soooo... I don't really want to post about my day... but I don't really want to post anything else either. I started writing something about female characters in movies and TV... but I just didn't like what I was writing and... idk... I was a blog writing machine this week and now I feel defeated. I wrote a ton on Monday and Tuesday and now I just don't feel like doing a post today... but I want to write still... So I'll talk about things that I guess are on my mind lately... Idk. So I got this Revlon Ultra HD Matte Lipcolor... and for some reason... I'm addicted to the way that it smells. Idk why, it smells like cherry medicine... but I also sort of like it. Its more cherry than medicine... and I can't smell it on my lips... but Idk. I keep smelling it in the tube. I got some cute stuff from American Eagle yesterday too! I got a dress and a romper... I do not own any Rompers... except this one... but it looked good on me and it didn't make me look f...

Throwback Thursday: 13 Going On 30

So I watched this on VH1 around Christmas Time because it was on... they really need to bring this movie to Netflix because it's pretty fantastic and VH1 doesn't get the whole thing. I didn't catch the very beginning... but I did watch most of it from around the time when Matty gives her the Dream House... so sweet. It was a little weird to watch this movie because when it came out, I was 13 or almost 13... and now I'm closer to being 30... but I still felt more connected to the 13 year old Jenna instead of the adults in the movie. Like I'm not totally sure when I turned almost 30... but I don't like it. I'm still 13 year old Jenna who likes the same music as when I was 13 and has kind of the same style as I did then... I don't know... its just kind of a weird thing and I was freaking out a little bit from it. This is also the movie that introduced me to one of my favorite actresses, Judy Greer! I love Judy Greer, she's so funny and great and s...
