Incepted Saga Finale - Friends with Benefits



Please read the title of this post again...

Now, do I really need to say anything else about this movie?

No, but I'll say it any way.

If you are smart, you will not even want to watch this movie. I didn't and never will. Why would I want to pour pure garbage in my brain? Why would you??!!!!!

Anyone who tells you that you can have casual sex with your friend, not have any strings attached, not be emotionally attached, not have any kind of commitment, give yourself to whoever will have you and still go about your life as if nothing happened is sick, and does not deserve your attention. If you have friends who would do that, then perhaps you should consider getting yourself new friends.

I tell you, this movie makes me want to throw up!

It's such garbage!!! I cannot stand talking any more about it!

Once and for all, THINK. OR SOMEONE ELSE WILL DO IT FOR YOU... like these guys who produced this disgusting movie!

Incepted Saga - Something Borrowed Part II


Continuation from yesterday…

From the beginning, you root for Rachel, after all she is the one who met the guy, she had everything in common with him and Darcy comes along and just kind of steals him from her.

Although Dex is engaged to Darcy, he really likes Rachel. But wait a minute! What are you doing getting engaged to someone if you really love someone else? Well, this movie will give you the idea that it’s ok, it happens. Right.

Then, after a shared ride on a taxi, Rachel and Dex end up declaring their love for each other and guess what else? Sleeping together. Now there is this big problem: Dex betrayed his fiancĂ©e and Rachel betrayed her best friend. If you are a true friend, then you know that you NEVER, EVER even look at your friend’s boyfriend or husband in any other than just as your friend’s boyfriend or husband! That is, if you ARE A GOOD FRIEND.

But Something Borrowed hints that in this case it’s no problem and here are the ideas they use in the movie to justify and make you agree to this:

Rachel saw him first and Darcy ‘stole’ the guy from herGive me a break! If the guy really wanted to stay with her, he would have, despite of what Darcy did or didn’t do. It was his choice to stay with Darcy.

Darcy is just spoiledAgain, no reason to sleep with her boyfriend, after all Rachel continues to be friends with her in spite of her being spoiled.

They were meant for each otherThat’s all well and good, but it was no reason for her to just go and be with a guy who had a commitment with someone else.

He loves Rachel, his friend, not Darcy, his soon-to-be-wifeSo, what would be the right thing to do? Break up with the girl he ‘just realized’ he doesn’t love and stay with the one he does love. Don’t stay with both!

 Darcy doesn’t love him Same as above.

Darcy cheated on himThey paint this really ugly picture about Darcy, that she doesn’t deserve him, that she cheated on him, that she is selfish, arrogant, backstabbing etc, which might all be true, but it does not justify what happens in the movie. Yes, you would like Dex and Rachel to end up together, but not by doing all the wrong things and not going about it the wrong way.

Do you want to know the ultimate lesson in this movie?

If you love someone and you feel you are meant to be together, you should do anything in your power to get the guy… even if he is somebody’s husband.

Now, you don’t realize that when you are watching the movie, do you?

THINK or someone else will do it for you!

Incepted Saga - Something Borrowed Part I





After many changes I had to make in my daily to-dos, here I am! I’m back and have many things to write about… I just didn’t get the chance to actually come here and post them :( How bad is that?

So, continuing my ‘Have you been Incepted?’ Saga, I want to tell you about yet another movie that falls right into the category of these kind of movies. In case you have no idea what I am talking about, please read my previous posts here.

The movie Something Borrowed is about this girl called Rachel, who has had this friend called Darcy, since her childhood. They did everything together and really loved each other, but had very different personalities.

Rachel goes to university and there she finds this guy called Dex, who is just like her, they become friends and soon she falls in love with him. Then, one night she wants to introduce her new friend to her life-long friend Darcy, but Darcy, with her charming manners, start taking over the conversation and Rachel’s new friend. So Rachel never gets to tell him how she feels about him and their relationship remains just as friendship.

A couple of years later, guess who Darcy is engaged to? Dex; Rachel’s love.

Ok, now that you understand a little bit of the story, let me tell you why this is NOT a good movie.

To be continued tomorrow…

Incepted Saga - Crazy Stupid Love Part II


Continuation from yesterday's post...

The problem is that many people will watch movies like this, they will laugh, they will get entertained, but if you ask them if they noticed any of the messages I mentioned here, they will say no. Do you know why?

Because these nasty ideas are sent in a very subtle way, you are not supposed to understand it like that. You are only supposed to see the comedy Steve Carell is bringing to the movie; you are only supposed to notice that Ryan Gosling is full of muscles. You are supposed to see how nasty the 13 year-old character is and only find him funny. You are supposed to feel pity on the poor 17 year-old girl who's in love with another woman's husband - who is way older than her by the way.

And if you do understand some of those messages, you are supposed to just think them silly... no one will copy what the characters in the movie are doing, right?

If you think that this is just a fictional story meant to just entertain you, you are being brainwashed and don't even know it! The fictional story has indeed served its purpose: To teach you something you never realize you learned...

There are people who are actually doing those things right now. Some might even read this and think 'what's the problem? That's what everybody is doing nowadays'.

But where are all these sick ideas coming from?

Wake up!

THINK or someone else will do it for you!

Incepted Saga - Crazy Stupid Love Part I

Continuation from ‘Have you been incepted – Part II’



Where did the idea of the groom holding the bride in his arms and carrying her over the threshold on their honeymoon come from?

I remember seeing it in the movies and finding it extremely romantic. I also remember wishing that the same could happen to me on my wedding night. Although this is not exactly a bad thing, you will have to agree with me that if it weren’t for the movies, that idea would probably never have even crossed my mind.

If such a small, unimportant idea can be planted in our mind by the movies we watch, do you think that big, life-changing-for-the-worse ideas can also? I believe so!

In fact, I dare say that some movies are made with exactly that intention, to alter the way people think, feel and behave in general... and not in a good way.

One of these movies is undoubtedly ‘Crazy, Stupid, Love’. 

Let me give you a brief summary of what the movie is about:

A woman married to her husband for more than 20 years decides to divorce him. She claims that there is no connection between them anymore, that the spark is gone and that they can no longer make each other happy. This is a very common thing nowadays right? But wait…

She slept with someone else. That's right, she wasn’t happy with her husband, he didn’t understand her anymore and so she cheated on him. The movie clearly sends the message that ‘If you feel your husband is insensitive, distant, distracted, doesn’t pay attention to you, it’s ok to cheat on him… after all, he left you with no other choice’.

Now tell me, SINCE WHEN?? Since when is it ok to cheat on your spouse? Since when has cheating become acceptable?

But this movie will tell you that it is! That it's just the way things are! It will tell you that the ‘poor’ wife was never at fault for the disintegration of the marriage and that the husband is to blame for everything. 

But that's not all! Here are some more indirect messages this movie sends: 

“It’s ok to be dirty, to have dirty thoughts and act upon them. As long as you are teenager... you’re good. Parents who know their 12 year old is watching porn on the Internet, should just laugh and do nothing about it. There’s nothing to be done…he is just a teenager after all.

 “Wives, if you are not satisfied with your man, just find another one and make sure you sleep with him. You don’t even need to divorce your current husband before doing that.

“Husbands, if your wife left you, please delude yourself into thinking that you can behave as a complete irresponsible single man. Sleep with as many women as you can… now is your chance.

“If you are a handsome guy, you would be stupid to settle for only one woman. Just be a player and get as many girls to sleep with you as possible, if you can get a different one every night, even better.

“Teenage girls, it’s ok to fall in love with a man 30 years your senior. If he thinks you are too young, just send him a picture of yourself naked and your problem is solved.”

I'm not exaggerating!!! This is exactly what you get from this movie... IF you are paying attention.

To be continued tomorrow...

Have you been 'Incepted'? Part II

Continuation from yesterday's blog...


So yeah, it happens all the time. It happens when you are listening to music, when you are watching your favorite show on TV and it happens when you are watching a movie... especially movies.


Let me explain it better. Has it ever happened to you that you go to the movie theatre and for some reason you don't feel like eating or drinking anything during the movie? You just want to buy your ticket, watch the movie and entertain yourself, but you DON’T WANT any popcorn or drink. 


And so you go to the screen showing your movie, sit there and wait for the movie to start. It’s time for the ads and so a clip begins, it’s full of beautiful people such as yourself, having fun with friends. It’s a hot day. They are thirsty… Now, guess what they have in their hands? A bottle of coke… and then ever so slowly one of them take the bottle to his lips, you begin to see everything in slow motion, or is it really in slow motion? Anyway... very slowly he starts drinking that cold, delicious, perfect drink...

All of a sudden you start regretting not buying something to drink before the movie, you start feeling thirsty, you can even taste the coca-cola in your mouth, for crying out loud!

What is that???


That my dear friend, is planting an idea in your head that wasn’t there before, that’s ‘inception’ happening in real life!

Sounds dumb, doesn’t it?

Well, in my next posts I’ll be talking about three different movies that could do exactly that to you.


Stay tuned and you might realize that what I’m saying is not so dumb after all…

Have you been ‘Incepted’?



Have you watched that movie Inception with Leonardo DiCaprio? You should! It’s an excellent movie, very clever, the kind that makes you have your eyes glued to the screen from beginning to end. You really have to pay attention in order to understand it though. I just loved watching this movie!

So, if you understood the movie (lol) you will know that it centers around one thing: To plant an idea in someone’s mind and make him think that it was his idea all along. He will never even suspect that before the ‘inception’ happened he never gave that idea a second thought, all he knows is that he woke up one day with that idea in mind.

What if I told you that this happens all the time? It’s true! 

Come back here tomorrow so I can tell you more...
