Family Film Night: Haiku Collection

Seeing Rogue One was a great way to spend time with my family. It was also a great source of inspiration for a few haikus.

A family night

Went with my folks to see it

My uncle came, too

Popcorn in my hand

Adds to the fantastic scene

I gotta get it

King Kong: Skull Island

Tom Hiddleston is in it

Want to see it. NOW!

Johnny Cash cover

Nice fit for Old Wolverine

Want to see Logan

Trailer for Boss Baby

Deplorable. You know why?

Main guy hates puppies

Trailer for Boss Baby

That movie is many things

But it’s not funny

Trailer for Boss Baby

The overall impression:

Not that creative

There’s no title crawl

Like watching a comic book

Crossed with a war flick

The callbacks were nice

Brought dead actors from the grave

Awesome Darth Vader

Very awesome bot

C-3PO except not

Has dry humor

Blind NOT Jedi Knight

No lightsaber required

Whoops a lot of butt

His sidekick’s fun, too

Cracks a joke with a big smirk

Packs a big boomstick

“I deserve credit!”

White general's so wimpy

Never gets his way

This one character

Can’t remember his name now

I call him Arrow.

He was a sniper.

Who had conflicting feelings

He lost everything

He reminds me of

Cellist of Sarejvo

Reminds me of her

Her name is Arrow

A character like that guy

Captain What’s-his-face

She was a sniper

Who had conflicting feelings

She lost everything

Here I am, thinking,

“They are the same character

Different names and sex”

Diego Luna

He plays Arrow in the film

He is kind of cute

Jyn the rebel girl

Her father made the Death Star

She has connections

Quite the risk taker

Wants to steal the Death Star plans

But no one budges

Defective Pilot

Starts off cowardly but then

Becomes awesome, man!

Princess Leia’s eyes

Very Disney-Princess-Y

It’s quite disturbing

Jyn and Arrow love:

They hug, hold hands, and that’s it

I guess that’s enough

Jyn and Arrow love:

Hey! Jyn! Arrow! Guys! Hello?!?

Just kiss already!

Jyn? Arrow? A word?

You’re on a beach together

Just kiss already!

Jyn? Arrow? A word?

Death is minutes away now

Just kiss already!

Ending of Rogue One:

The moral of this story

War is bad. The end.

To quote Patrick Star:

“Everyone died. The end.” (Smiles)

Wow, Star Wars, that’s dark.

Here I am thinking:

“This movie is so awesome

Burning way past cool”

An adhesive flick

Put the two arcs together

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!

And so it begins.

1. Walk in motivated and ready to rock

Camping out at the library is not for the faint of heart. You need to go in as a warrior. You usually have brought supplies (laptop, chargers, and textbooks) and sustenance (water, snacks, and blanket/sweatpants) since the battle will be for an undetermined length of time. Perhaps it is one assignment or perhaps it's four. You are motivated and prepared; you don’t doubt the assignment(s) will take time, but you know it couldn’t be that long.
