Hello, my name is Andrew Jara. I am trying to be a writer/director. I made a film named "Last Days" that i'm trying to bring some press to.
Catching Elephant is a theme by Andy Taylor
Plot: A documentary following a group of MMA fighters in Louisiana.
Review: I wanted to say this was a good story but a bad documentary but it’s also not that good of a story. Well I mean it could have been but we’ll never know as the documentary is bad. Now I am not a huge fan of MMA but I do like sports documentaries so I figure I would give it a shot. The problem is that I have no idea what the stakes are. They don’t even try to explain what is lost, what is gained, that UFC has to sign you, or really anything that happens. So what we are watching is two fighters who are trying to reach an unclear goal. It is interesting to see the lives of fighters are still struggling. And some realizations are cool like that they only get paid 800 dollars per fight of how much they have to workout to really get anywhere. In fact one fighter even stops working out because of a break up and in a week is not as good as he should be. But the fighters are also kind of boring. They spend a lot of their time speaking in cliches and finding different ways to say “life and boxing are the same.” It gets old fast and when you have no knowledge coming in, you get bored. Overall I wish this story had been better and we had learned more. I can’t really recognize this and it did not make me love MMA.
Trivia: Dustin Poirier, one of the fighters, has since been signed to UFC.
This is about me right, I say yes!
My problem with mayweather is he always has an * next to his fights. His gloves were too big, he came in overweight, he sucked punched. Just fight and be a man.
Day 164: so today I did some shadow boxing but that’s it. It was a bit of a recovery after New Years. Tomorrow ill put my goals etc.
So last night, I wanted to see the Pacquiao-Marquez fight so I went to this bar on Melrose called The Parlor. Well it was okay. Apparently you have to reserve a table to actually sit down so I walked around for a bit. Finally I got to sit down at a table that was hiding in the corner. I could see the tvs so whatever I had a couple of beers. Then I saw the UFC fight which is still as lame as I thought it was last time I saw it.
So before the Pacquiao Fight started, I went outside to smoke. I was wearing a black shit and it was funny cause a bunch of people thought I was a bouncer.
Some people even showed me their ids. And they were all asking me questions. Plus I told some guy to go on in, but when the real bouncer asked for his id, he didn’t have it and he was so mad. I guess he though he had gotten away with it.
So then the fight started and it was probably the best fight of the year. It was everything you wanted it to be ( I mean unless you were a Pacquiao fan, I could see how you would want a couple of things changed.) But I really wanted a good fight and I got a great one so fun night over all.
And then everyone’s jaws dropped (at The Parlor)
