Rogue Elements (Indy Film)

 I just finished watching an Indy film on Youtube called Rogue Elements which was based off the book series written by Will Jordan. You might know him better as the Youtube star The Critical Drinker.

The short film follows Ryan Drake who is looking to recover an asset and infiltrates a heavily guarded base with every single one of his moves are being watched over by a mysterious figure. He moves his way through the compound and rescues the asset only to find himself in one heck of a fire fight.

I must say, I really did enjoy this little film that these guys how made. I could really tell that there was a lot of care being taken with each scene and each character.

Another thing I loved about this movie was the pacing. For the record this movie was under an hour and most films would try and cram in a whole bunch of different stuff in it. But not this film, it was pretty much straight forward and got to the point in my humble opinion.

The action scenes were pretty good too, I really appreciated the effort they put into that. I also thought the actors and actresses were really into the characters that they were playing and you can totally see that in the movie.

The ending song Whatever by the band Age of Days was amazing too!

The only real criticism I have of this short film and to be perfectly honest, it really only is a minor issue for me. Was that I didn't fully understand what was going on between the main character Drake and Anya the mysterious Russian lady who helped Drake along the way. But like I said before it is a minor problem because it is a short film. Maybe we will learn more at the later time!

Fun fact! I learned that this was based on Jordan's novel series which was a total of nine books. All were based on the adventures of the lead character of the movie, Ryan Drake.

I say this is a fun fact because as a writer myself, it is really cool to see another writer have his or her creations get to be put in movies or TV series. And it really has inspired me and more importantly, given me hope that I too can make it and hopefully have others enjoy my work and inspire them as well so thank you so much Mr. Jordan.

Here is the link to the movie! I highly recommend it!

Lewistown Area High School Class of 2009

 I can't believe it has been 15 years since me and Chad have graduated from Lewistown Area High School back in 2009. High school was a very interesting time for not just myself, but for many of us who had attended, mainly because usually times at high school is the time of getting to know ones self and discover who they are and what there place is in this world. Being a teenage to becoming a young adult can be very challenging to a lot of people during this time in life. Especially with dealing with all sorts of different emotions that we didn't understand before. Sadly, there are also a lot of young people who struggled to figure things out during their time in high school and I was certainly one of those people.  I mention this because recently I found and looked back through my yearbook when I graduated from Lewistown and it was pretty cool to see some old faces especially now that I am older and learned so much about myself. The only problem about this is I wish I knew what

The Wacky Adventures Of Joshua and Chad: McVeytown Eagles Championship Parade!

Image
Well tonight was a pretty special night down here in McVeytown as Chad and I along with many other people who live here in McVeytown all came together to celebrate a special accomplishment. And that was how all three of the McVeytown Eagles teams made it to the CKYFL championship games. Winning in both the Peewee and Midget divisions and placing second in the Mighty Mights. Stuff like this doesn't happen often in such a small town where I live so to see these kids have the time of their lives during the parade was certainly a sight to see. One of the things I love about covering sports is when I see kids learn, work hard and turn it into success. And these kids were learning a lot throughout the season and watching them grow and not only become better football players, but better people as well.  Which is why I have really enjoyed covering the CKYFL these last few years for Hometown Sports. People like Travis McCullough who is the President of the league along with Adam Weaver, Rob

What's going on? Being honest with ourselves!

 I don't like to cause any problems with anybody but there have been a lot of things that I been wanting to get off my chest for a very long time now. And that is in my humble opinion people don't seem to want to be honest about really anything anymore. Now, I could be just a little paranoid, maybe my anxiety is getting the best of me or whatever. But as time has past I have been getting a weird feeling all over me. You see, I just feel as though people no one is really being honest with each other, themselves or to God anymore. I wish I could describe it better but it has been a concern of mine for quite a long time now and I feel like it is getting worse. People would always say things to me like, Josh it is just a different time. But honestly, I think that is just a lame excuse. And the reason I say that is because a lot of those same people who say that kind of stuff to me are the exact same people who then say that they don't understand how things around us are getting
