In 2017 Disney is coming out with three
sequels to their most beloved movies:
“The Incredibles,” “Toy Story,” “Cars”, and
many more. The Brooke Point students are
excited to see each film. Sophomore Isaiah
Scypion responded, “I am looking forward
to The Incredibles the most, I have been
waiting for this for years. We have waited
such a long time, and they left us on such
a cliff hanger so I just cannot wait” he
explained.
Freshman Gregory Pilji had a different
answer, “Honestly, I would go with cars 3
since I really want to see what happens.”
A Spanish teacher, Samantha Christopher
is most excited to see “Toy Story 4.” She
shares, “I think I am most excited for
Toy Story, because I like the idea of toys
having their own lives.”
When the original films appeared,
most of the students at Brooke
Point were children. Sophomore Grace
Duckworth answered, “I was a big fan of
the Incredibles when I was a child, and I
still am, I am sixteen now so when “The
Incredibles” came out I was around six.”
Sophomore George Yuschak responded
with, “I am for sure looking forward to
“The Incredibles 2.”
“You see, I was a child, around 5 or
6, and I liked it. The story was good
and it deserved to get seen.” Samantha
Christopher,
who was
most excited
for Toy Story
4 responded,
“I was maybe
21 or 22
when I first
saw it, but
have seen it a
million times
now!”
These films
were made
enjoyable with
very lovable
characters.
Scypion
responded, “My favorite character
was Frozone and still is! I loved his
quote ‘Honey, where’s my super suit?’”
Christopher said, “I like Mr. Potato head,
but I also like Mrs. Potato head now,
especially her line ‘Honey, I packed your
angry eyes!’.
Pilji on the other hand, answered,
“My favorite character then and now is
definitely Mator. He seems like he has
loved everything, but he also has a serious
side to him. He also comes up with the
cringiest stuff to do.”
All three of these movies will be
premiering during the summer of 2017.
This may not seem far away, considering
that it’s already 2016. But after a 5-12
year wait, fans are overjoyed with the
announcement of the sequels to come.

Scary
Now
and Then
By Nathaniel Bowman
Fear is an instinct built into
the mind of every human being,
but has it evolved over time? Scary
stories have been part of the everchanging
world we call Earth for
hundreds of years. Vikings taught
their children that if they did not
behave they would be kidnapped
in their sleep and whipped for all
eternity, and rebellious teens were
forever cursed with images of
Freddy Krueger haunting them in
their dreams.
October will always be the
best month to kick back and watch
all the horror classics, but are
they still scary now that society
has undergone so many changes?
Several members of the Brooke
Point family were interviewed about
their opinions of horror classics and
horror movies now. Many student
were asked what the first horror
movie they remember watching
was, and whether the found it
scary. Freshman, Youness Echane
responded, “It was a movie called
Child’s Play. I was terrified.” Senior,
Parker Seibenschuh answered, “A
movie called Children of the Corn.
It was not really scary. It was a
clown movie, and clowns are not
scary.” When asked if they still found

Are the
classics
still scary?
their first horror movies scary they
both had similar responses. Parker
Seibenschuh answered, “Nope, taxes
are scarier.”
What makes a horror movie
scary? That is exactly what we asked
members of Brooke Point. English
teacher, Jade Johnson responded,
“For me, whenever there is a
supernatural element involved.”
Sophomore Elvis Mejia answered
explaining, “Probably what is a
common fear in society. Right now
we all fear clowns because of recent
events.” When asked why movies
that may have been scary years
ago are no longer scary, Elvis Mejia
explained, “What was considered
scary has changed. Society changed.”
Junior, Robert Cline was
asked on his opinion on what he
thought made older movies scary.
He answered, “Less gore, and more
superstition. Vampires, werewolves,
and ghost.” What is considered scary
is forever changing and evolving,
much like the human mind. We can
only assume that 10 years from now,
our horror movies will be children’s
books.
