Finished Umbrella Academy and Arcane

I finished the third and final season of Umbrella Academy tonight. It’s 2:33 am on November 23rd, 2024. It fu**ed me up. I cried in the end. A lot of shows have been fu**ing me up lately, but it’s because they were emotional and amazing. And I loved every minute of them.

I recently watched Arcane season 2. The end of arc 2 had me in tears! The end of arc 3 was pretty good, dramatic, and entertaining. But it didn’t hit as hard as arc 2, but I still loved it. I also wish it had a different ending. But that’s a whole other blog.

I also finished watching Deadpool and Wolverine for the first time about a week ago. It showed up on Disney Plus, and I am glad that I was finally able to check it out. It was amazing, and the ending brought me to tears. It was haunting and beautiful, and the movie was an amazing love letter if you happened to watch the original movies throughout the years, and knew who the actors, the characters, and the worlds they came from, were.

I grew up watching all of them. And seeing them all come together was sincerely a wonderful treat of nostalgia. I loved Gambit. Although he was a little too bulky, I would have liked him to be taller and lankier, but Channing Tatum did a wonderful job.

So much inspiration. So many amazing stories and characters. I’m bursting at the seams with thoughts and ideas, and I am so excited to start writing and finishing my own story.

I’m still at a loss for words about The Umbrella Academy, and I cannot believe that it ended the way it did. Holy sh**. Man, I love storytelling. I hope to elicit the same reaction, the same emotional response, and pray that my stories will leave a lasting memory on readers. I want to make people cry. I want them to be deeply affected by my words, my characters, and the realm that I form from pen to page.

That is my dream. That is my hope. And that is the legacy that I desire to leave behind. I will finish my stories. I will write the whole narrative down. And I hope and pray that it resonates with someone. Not everyone, I know. I understand that. But want my story to reach the ones that God means for it to reach, and that my tale of fantasy and adventure touches hearts, and minds, and inspires creativity in a way that stories have inspired my mind and my pen in the last few weeks.

Good gracious, it is awesome. That is what I want to do. That is my ultimate wish. And I will. I will.
