Director's Seat

I know nothing about making movies, but nonetheless I want to be a director. When I was like 12 I wanted to be an actor, but that was pretty short lived. In the past couple of years I switched to director because I like to write and I think I have a lot of good ideas that would look good on the big screen. Now I think I actually do know a lot about movies, but all this knowledge comes from me being lazy and watching a lot of movies. This past summer alone I probably went to the theater once or twice every week. I don't know why but I love movies. I will pretty much watch any genre of movies and most likely there's something that I enjoy out of each one of them. One of the great things about movie genres is that you can combine any two (or maybe more) genres and make a movie out of them. Comedy in particular can be combined with anything. I would like to make horedys (comedy horror) and action comedies, or just horror, action, and comedy. So many movie ideas come to mind when I think about making movies. I've thought about maybe being a screenwriter instead, but whatever I did I would want to have a part in the story of the film. I don't know how realistic me being a director is, but I honestly just can't see myself doing anything else with my life.
