From here on out, the list gets easy to rank, these top 4 movies may never see a shift in the favorites scale. American History X takes me back to the days where I was first tested by how hardcore a movie can be and it happens in the opening scenes by form of an assault. The film is divided by black and white scenes (the past) and color sequences (the present). Derek (Ed Norton) is raised as a confused young man who is brought up by his brilliant principle, a black man Dr. Sweeney who believes in Derek and sees how smart he really is only until Derek's controversial father is killed on his firefighting job and that's where Derek's confusion becomes turmoil and it changes him to a ravish Neo-Nazi preacher. The present is Derek with a fresh look but in his grip he has his suffering family led by brother Danny (Ed Furlong) and his mother Doris (Bev D'Angelo) where Danny is a near exact copy of Derek and is heading towards a dangerous life path. Derek's life told in a narrative story at times as well as Danny's and seeks closure and forgiveness in a fascinating tale of 2 brothers who try to identify their place in the world. Is that enough for them to be accepted is the question.
Forgotten and Overlooked Abuse in Hollywood: Edward Furlong and Jacqueline Domac
When talking about pedophilia and grooming in Hollywood, many names come up. Predators, victims, bystanders. One name that I never see in those conversations is Edward Furlong.
Edward Furlong (around 14-15) played John in Terminator 2 and was expected to be become a star. His tutor, Jacqueline Domac (28-29), started dating him. Nobody did anything. They dated for years. Edward ended up a drug addict, went in and out of rehab, had criminal charges. Jacqueline Domac changed her name and started working at a High School as a Health Teacher, including Sex ED
so since Sicilian 20 yr old guy wasn’t consistent enough for even a fun little fling…. like who is busy for two months straight. blocked his ass bc i foresaw him bringing me down with him. shame bc he had a perfect pepsi can uncut cock with a FIFTY (50) degree curve 😔 anyway new future boo is a guy from north carolina who is turning 23 on Wednesday and so we’re going out to celebrate at a greek restaurant. i’m trying to be a lady and court him a bit before fucking on the first date bc i respect him. he looks like a young ed furlong but with smaller features. not my usual type but he’s very cute and one of his fav songs is swamp song by BLURRR so we shall see. he’s also a solder and i formerly barred myself from dating soldiers bc i dont wanna be a military wife but maybe he could save me.

Okay, this one is actually for myself and for all the other Edward Furlong lovers. It's a pity that there are not many fanfics about him.
If someone read this and writes Eddie fics, please send me a message! I'm dying to read them!
I've been in love with Edward Furlong since i was 14 xD.
I won't allow shity talk about him. He's been sober since 3 years and he admitted his mistakes. I'm proud. I also still thinks he's hot <3
You've had a busy day at work and you just got home.
Dinah ( Eddie's dog) comes running towards you as soon as you enter the room. ´Hey sweetheart´ you pet her and puts your bags away.
You walk to the living room and look around when you see that Eddie's not home. Then you notice a note on the table.
I went for groceries.
Be right back X Ed
You smile to yourself while Dinah is looking with big puppy eyes. ´Oh come on sweety, i'll give you food´. Dinah barks happily.
Soon as Dinah is done with eating you go to the bathroom.
You need to relax and a hot shower is perfect for thaA deep sigh comes from your lips when the warm water hits your skin. You start washing your hair and suddenly you feel another set of hands in your hands. ´Holy shit!´ you yell and you hear Edward laughing. ´Fuck me, i was about to whip your ass!´ you laugh when Edward wipes the tears from his eyes. ´That was really funny´ You grin en pull him closer towards you. ´Hello to you to babe´. He smiles and kiss you softly. You grab the shampoo and start to wash/massage his hair. A satisfy smile and a little moan escapes from his lips. ´That feels really good´ He smirks and his lady killer smiles start to show. You rinse his hair and when you're done his pulls you closer. ´I love you so damn much´ He looks at you in awe. You smile shyly and kiss his nose. ´I love you even more´ . ´Okay, i want to ask you something because i've been thinking about it for a few months now´ He starts and looks at the ground. ´Go on´ you say and try to look at him. ´Well, you know i've been in a couple marriages and you know they didnt end well, but..´ Your eyes grew wide and your mouth is almost on the ground by now.
´ Shit , i knew this wasn't a good idea´ he looks at the floor and you lift his head with your finger. ´ Edward, i couldn't wish for more! You have no fucking idea how much i want to be your wife!. He starts to smile and start kissing you. ´ I have to tell Ethan! He knew i wanted to ask you this´ You laugh at Edward who is stumbling out of the shower and you put your head on your forehead. Soon you are Mrs. Furlong
"Hate is baggage. Life's too short to be pissed off all the time. It's just not worth it." - Ed Furlong as Danny Vinyard, American History X (1998)
Some of you can benefit learning from this quote. Hate is a waste of energy! Energy you can spend on walking in the local forest or swimming 2 kilometres (it's both fun & exhausting)! Or learning the harmonica, video editing or baking baklava!
