I ABSOLUTELY LOVE MOVIES ABOUT MAKE-A-WISH KIDS




Who is ready for inspirational and up-lifting movie about the spirit of never giving up and never losing hope?! Well, fucking ME, for one, cause I just saw the trailer for the new movie MISS MARCH. The movie follows the story of a young teenage boy, Eugene, played by Actor Haley Joel Osment (talk about all growed-up!) who after stricken with Lukemia (I think, cause like he had lots of bruises on his face. and I know when you have lukemia you get lots of bruises.) contacts the Make-a-wish corporation to grant his death wish; going on a crazy, raunchy, make-no sense, clusterfuck of a road trip just like he had seen in all the movies. Along with his make-a-wish case worker, Tucker - who looks a lot like the bastard child of Ace ventura- they go on many adventures, totally bucket-list style, including racing fire trucks and meeting european lesbos. So touching!
Along the way they meet up with this large black guy, dying of type 2 diabetese and fulfilling his make-a-wish of making a rap video. Together they team up and find themselves in all holy places- the Playboy Mansion! But the movie takes a turn for the worse, when all Eugene wants in the end is to not miss his 18th birthday in March. And soon after seeing an old man in a robe, -obviously God, he says "I don't wanna Miss March" (or something like that, I couldnt really hear cause I was also talking on my iphone while the trailer was playing in the theatre.) and then God is all synical like "How's that working out for ya?" and he dies! So Sad!!!! I am like so totally gonna need tissues when I see this one in the theatre!! They don't make enough movies about make-a-wish kids, which is so sad, because those stories need to be told! I think the last movie I saw about a make-a-wish kid, was the one where Hillary Swank wishes to be a boxer before she died of Chrones disease or something! So Good! Anyway, good luck in the oscar race for Miss March, Haley!!!
and p.s. I think its so cute they got hugh hefner to play god- what a gag! love it!
