Shame on you, Hollywood.

Right now I'm watching The Last Song for the first time while I work on my redraft assignment for my Residential Landscape Design class. For those that also haven't seen this movie, Miley Cyrus gets accepted to Juilliard, so I'm just wondering. Is there any way someone could make a movie that is even the slightest bit realistic? Never in a MILLION years would Miley Cyrus get into that school. It's just cruel and misleading for filmmakers to make their audience think that it's possible for them to be acknowledged by such a prestigious, competitive program for mediocre talent. Just like in Step Up where in the end Channing Tatum gets into the fancy arts school. Not to say Channing isn't a talented dancer, but how exactly does his street dancing qualify him to learn ballet alongside students who have been dedicated to honing that skill since they were, like, 4? It's immoral to make movies that allow people to believe stuff like that happens. Cause it doesn't. And it shouldn't.

What we need is more movies like He's Just Not That Into You.
