Singing in the Rain

The remake of “Singing in the Rain” in “Orange Clockwork” was absolutely fantastic. The modernized version completely contrasts the innocence of the original performance. Despite this discrepancy, both versions are absolutely incredible. The song is shown in a way that it would appeal to its audience. To be blunt, the first version is just an example of the innocence of the audience’s infatuation with the song, the dance, and the other images in the film. The modernized version appeals to the audience in the newer generation because by that time, the novelty of the images and sound have basically worn off. However, the intelligence of its performance demonstrates it all. Both performances portray the beauty of the song, and based on the time of each performance, the song resumes its reputation as a pure classic.

Earthquake

When we went to Universal Studios we rode the ride Disaster. My dad was actually picked to be a part of the “movie” in Universal Studios. The ride was on a train, and we rode into a “subway station” where we experienced an “earthquake”. Water flooded into the station, surrounding the train that we were in. A truck fell through into the station and for those couple of minutes we were part of the disaster. The ride Disaster in Universal is based on the movie Earthquake. The ride was originally called Earthquake, but then it was modified to the name “Disaster”.
　
　
Notes with phone conversation with my dad

Impact, heartwarming, Disaster ride on universal, talks about natural disaster, really loud, how human beings get together to save everybody, care about each other, shows how powerful mother nature can be, saw it when he was a kid, my dad saw it with his mom in the movie theater. My dad’s mother’s sister lives in San Francisco and they have a lot of earthquakes which is why my dad’s mom was interested. It started as a small tremor and then it decimates Earth. The sound in the theater was okay. There was no stereo back then but it was still very loud. My dad saw it in 1970.
