Whether it’s a laugh out loud comedy, a tear jerking romance, or an action packed thriller, everyone loves a good movie. As a movie goer, I can’t help but become connected to the characters Yet when I watch a movie and observe the characters, I often find myself comparing characters to the people of South Kingstown High School.
Dale and Brennan from Step Brothers
The first time I watched this movie I was immediately reminded of SKHS’ favorite male twins, Matt and Zach LeValley. The two set of brothers’ antics are hilarious. When I watch the fight scene between Dale and Brennan, I am reminded of all the fights at football practice between SK’s most famous duo.
Buzz Light-year from Toy Story
While watching Toy Story I noticed the resemblance between Buzz Light-year and Officer Monty. The following week I saw Monty jump into his police cruiser and shout, “to infinity, and beyond!” The next day Mr. McCarthy got into an argument with Monty, crushing his spirits by saying, “You’re not a super hero”, “McCarthy said” you’re a police officer!”
Mr. Incredible from The Incredibles
For all of you wondering what Disney Pixar’s favorite super hero has been up to these days? He’s currently the Athletic Director of SKHS. The former assistant principal missed the glory days of his athletic career so much he decided to do the next best thing, direct them.
Ray Kinsella from Field of Dreams
Each year SKHS English Teacher Mr. Blessing travels to the Baseball Hall of Fame in Cooperstown to search for answers to the voices he heard in his backyard. Mr. Fairbanks, a.k.a. Terrence Mann, reluctantly agrees to go the distance with Blessing on the never ending bus ride. When they arrive in Cooperstown, Blessing eases his pain by playing his favorite past time, Town Ball, on the village green. Fairbanks puts on suspenders and watches the action from a park bench.
