FITS OF ANGER!!!!!!

C.S. Lewis was one of the world's most acclaimed writers of the 20th century. Of his works that I've read, I've found them to be phenomenal. The Space Trilogy, Mere Christianity, and of course the "Narnia" series, they're all works that will be set in history for a very very long freaking time. He was born, he wrote, and he laid in his death bed to die. Out of his entire life, he only asked one thing of society. You know what that was? "Don't make my books into movies." BAM. So what did we do? WHAT DID WE DO, YOU GUYS?? ANSWER ME!!!
Okay, so I'm not really that mad, I loved Narnia with the cute British kids. *Watched it, bought it, lost it, bought it again. But really. There are thousands of other ideas that corporate movie-makers could have come up with, but they didn't. Charles Shultz, the maker of the Peanuts cartoons, they honored his wishes to not make anymore Snoopy shizz. Which was a good freaking idea because people would have ruined that, too.
If you think about it, Hollywood sometimes ruins EVERYTHING THAT IS GOOD. Okay, here's an example. Gilmore Girls was an awesome show, right? It was hilarious, it was witty, and it just made you feel at home when you watched it. I would just curl up with a cup of tea, put in season 2, and just relax for the rest of the day. And I'm pretty sure that a lot of other teens (and their moms) did that too because all of the sudden, the WB freaking EXPLODED with views. So what do they do when they get popular?? They decide to FIRE THE SCREEN WRITER THAT MADE IT POPULAR, hire a new one, and turn it into a hooker show about sleeping around, getting pregnant, getting drunk at parties, yelling at your mom for no apparent reason, and cheating on your boyfriend with different random guys. Like.......... WHAT?????! Don't watch season 4 on, I'm warning you.
I'm sorry that I'm in a bad mood today. I'm just cranky I guess. And really, it's not like it just all of the sudden happened. You guys know the Leroy Anderson Christmas song, right? It was written in like, the 40's or something for orchestra. I might just be showing my band nerdery right now. "Let's here those sleigh bells ring-aling la la la" I don't know the words very well. Here's the link if you don't know what I'm talking about. Anyway, Leroy said one thing about this song. He said, copy it as much as you want, play it as much as you want, and listen to it as much as you want. BUT DON'T ADD FREAKING WORDS. WHAT DID WE DO AMERICA??? WHAT DID WE DO NEXT???? ANSWER ME RIGHT NOW.
Okay, I'm calm. I'm sorry for this stupid rant, but you guys know I'm right. Have a good day. Go to a small town coffee shop, drink coffee, and look at pictures of cute kittens. One guess as to what I'm doing right now. I bid you adieu.

*If you got this movie reference, BE MY BEST FRIEND.
