Tammy ReesePublished 4 years ago in GeeksCelebrity which I looked up to not so much a crush: DENZEL WASHINTON
It's difficult to write a story about one celebrity that I have always wanted to meet or had a crush about. If I had to choose it would have been Denzel Washington. His movie career has been so wide ranged and diversified throughout the years. Whenever I watch one of his movies, I often forget it is an actual nonfiction story. He puts his entire soul into every role. My favorite movie of all is Malcolm X. He played that role as if his body had become man. Anyone can tell he studied for the role in order to be so compiling. On the other spectrum he became the star of Training Day and showed an entirely different person. Yet, when he played the role in The Preacher's Wife we got to see a more playful side of him as an angel. However, the role in Training Day and Fallen was so opposite each other if the viewers had never seen great acting, there would be a wonderment as to where did he go for his training. He was able to capture each character with futuristic style and showmanship no one else can ever obtain. I just think Mr. Washington could have his own acting school because of his ability to teach through his own skills. No other person can act in such a manner that is one usable by schools for acting. Now, when I watched A Soldier's Story, Antwon Fisher and Courage Under Fire those two movies literally helped me personally with my own military career as a African American female military officer. He gave out such strong advice as a commander. It helped me along my way to each rank I made until my medical retirement. Now, when I watched Philadelphia the very first time, I had so many tears going down my face, I couldn't complete the movie. I finally got the courage to finish it only to have more tears. Even now when I watch the tears still flow and I need time to reflect on both actors in the movie. Yet it is Mr. Washington's role I know had to be the hardest during that period of time. It takes me back to when I worked in the hospital, where I had to care for HIV+ patients and even those with full blown AIDS.

Liridona BerishaPublished 4 years ago in GeeksThe New Mutants Movie Review
At long last, the final film in the 20th Century Fox X-Men line of films, The New Mutants, has been released. Set in a dilapidated mental healthcare facility, the film focuses on the titular team of young mutants uncovering a sinister conspiracy while also fighting their own personal fears and demons. With a promising cast and beloved comic book property, this movie was hotly anticipated… until Disney decided to buy Fox and shelved the movie. After its April 2018 release date was postponed 4 times, The New Mutants then spent three years in limbo before Disney decided to dump it in theaters this past weekend on Friday, August 28th, 2020. And ‘dump’ is more than appropriate when describing this movie.

Tim Burton is probably best known for his incredibly strange animation style, but even before his animated films Burton was a huge success having directed the 80s/90s Batman films before Nolan but not the first of their kind. Tim Burton's use of a regular cast during the 90s and the 2000s made it easier for audiences to identify what they wanted to see on the screen as he was constantly trying methods which really did appear on screen as oddities in the world of film. His attempts as shaping actors like Johnny Depp and Helena Bonham Carter were a massive success with both actors creating some of their best work under the guidance of Tim Burton.
Annie KapurPublished 4 years ago in GeeksI Wish that I Were Jesse’s Girl
Have mercy! What can I say, I definitely wish that I were Jesse’s girl. My OG celebrity crush is John Stamos. He is the whole reason I started watching Full House. I had to see Uncle Jesse. I think that he is the epitome of sexy. He is the cat’s meow and the pur. I don’t know how he ever got through airport security when he traveled because he is the bomb. In fact, when I was a junior in high school, the first day of English class, my teacher Mr. Vargo asked us to show or tell about someone important to us. Without hesitation, I was the first to pull out my flip phone ( I can’t believe I ever thought flip phones were cool); and, I professed to my peers my undying love for John Stamos.

Margaret MinnicksPublished 4 years ago in GeeksThe Green Phoenix
The clock ticked loudly to midnight. Every night it ticked off the uneventful minutes. No museum robbers with plans to make off with overpriced art ever had the courtesy to break in so Wil could spoil their plans. Anything to break up the monotony of patrolling. At least that’s what she thought until the museum director showed up. The curator was one thing. Liza usually liked to be there for big deliveries, and she was cool to Will. The museum director was a whole other thing. If that glory hound showed up it meant something “big” was coming in. Which would be exciting except he had an uncanny ability to suck all the fun out of anything, except for Liza. Nothing could dampen her, probably the only reason he hadn’t managed to drive her off. She kept rushing back and forth between the two biggest walls in the museum. Her heels clicking as she muttered about light and other technicalities of placement, sporadically saying “I can’t believe it.” Liza was usually enthusiastic about her art, but her eyes were doing a particularly happy dance tonight.
