Action movies are quite the gems, I personally enjoy action movies with a good story, I'm not watching them for the explosions but because I enjoy the story itself, the action is just part of the storyline you're watching, and at times it can be exhilarating. These are the movie banners of the movies I first stated as examples.



















    Saying this again, I do not enjoy movies that overdo stuff, it becomes boring and makes my attention drag away. The only reason I would like overdoing is if it actually helped a "fight" scene, or some intense battle. At times they would just cause Nuclear missiles to go off in the background for no absolute reason, it's just there and we can see it, and it causes nothing, it has no point to the story and is just not needed.

But don't my drift wrong, I love action movies, I've been watching them for a long time, The sense of thrill that they give you while they're fighting one of the evil characters, you never know what happens next, it's the sense of needing to know what happens after, a sense of mystery.

            Top of the morning fellas, so for greatest part of this video is the research because it is the origin of them all.

Speaking of Fnaf, which is five nights of Freddy's, I'll be mentioning it as fnaf from now on as it is publicly and globally referred to as using that term, but anyways. The Fnaf video is two separate parts put together, the first being "Fnaf 1 By The Living Tombstone" which is the song playing in the background, and the second being the Fnaf trailer for the movie coming out this October, 27th, 2023. I put these two parts together because the Original song does not have any Video, instead Lyrics with captions, but surprisingly, with some editing, I was able to shorten it and make a actually appea

My Intruduction

          Hello! My name is Daniel P . I promise this is no sham, this is just going to be about getting to know me better before any of the fun stuff happens later on in the timeline. To start with the basics, I am a High School student currently in 10th grade working up to get my diploma, and someday a college degree, I don't know what the best option for me is, or if there's a better option, but I'm focusing toward a Mechanical Engineering, Electrical Engineering, Or just Basic Engineering Majors. Engineering for me is really cool because not only do you get to go out and solve a bunch of problems, but you get to invent and create whatever comes to or lurks in your mind, and for that to work you need to have at least some originality or creativity. Engineering itself is a huge aspect of our everyday lives, and I hope to improve that and make the world a somewhat "Better" place than it was before I got them, solving problems, improving systems, and stoping your
