Peter Parker: From Super Nerd to Super Douche Bag!!
Well folks here he is in all of his douchey glory-Andrew Garfield as Peter Parker!! It looks like they’ve got a new look for the new Spider-man and this time it looks like this prick will most likely be hanging outside smokin’ cigs on the football field with Flash Thompson this time around. I gotta say I’m really not so pumped on this revamping of the Spider-man franchise. To me it just feels a little on the cheap side. Either that or maybe Peter Parker is now modeling for J. Crew as his part time high school job? Or maybe he’s singing for some whiny emo band? Whatever the case this is makin’ me miss Tobey in a bad way!
Peter Parker is a nerd not a douche…Hollywood you suck!
Guilty Pirate Pleasures…
So I guess it could be said that the Pirates of the Carribean movies were somewhat of a guilty pleasure for me. Really I was pretty dang impressed with all three of them-least impressed with the third film. But hey I own them all on dvd. So now we finally get to see what the fourth film, which will be starting a new trilogy will be like. I must say it looks pretty damn fun. Alot of people too are complaining that Orlando Bloom and Keira Knightley aren’t in this one-however that’s one of the BEST selling points for this new installment! I personally couldn’t care less about the two of them and am so glad that we don’t have to deal with their “tender love” once again in this next movie. This one look like it’s really about the pirates this time-and personally I can’t wait to get back on board…
Spooky Encounters – Kung Fu Horror at it’s BEST!!
Last night I had the pleasure of viewing an amazing movie I had never seen before from the 80’s! Spooky Encounters was something that had sat in my online que for months until it finally arrived for me in the mail. What I saw was one of the coolest horror comedies of the 80’s! I guess for me it was so rad because I have never really seen a movie quite like it-kinda like Sam Raimi directing a kung fu movie back when he still made unique and exciting cinema ( I suppose he redeemed himself with Drag Me to Hell-but it takes alot to recover from Spider-man 3!).
It’s pretty much got all that you need, great kung fu, a great soundtrack, ghosts, kung fu zombies and Sammo Hung’s (the movie’s star) comedic genius! So much that it’s jumped to the top of my list of dvd purchases! Continue reading
R.I.P. Leslie Neilson…
Let’s take a moment to honor the late great comedic genius that was Leslie Neilson who passed away last night. You’ll be missed! Looks like it’s time once again to pull out the Naked Gun collection. Leslie was 84 years old and gave us some of the most funny moments ever put on film…

This Finnish movie, directed by Jalmari Helander is destined to be a holiday cult classic-check out the official synopsis: Continue reading
There Will Be NO Wolverine Movie Sequel!! Yay!
Wow now here’s some good news out there for all of you people who actually love the character, Wolverine. It has been confirmed by Darren Aronofsky that the upcoming Wolverine movie he is directing will NOT be a sequel to that god awful pile of flaming horseshit we were delivered a couple years back entitled X-men Origins: Wolverine he tells Hitfix. Instead this movie will be an entity entirely of its own.
“The film that he’s directing is officially called “The Wolverine,” Continue reading
Evil Aliens : The Best Movie I’ve Never Seen…
It’s been a few days since I have blogged on here and I will admit it’s actually been because I have been super busy with a new store I am starting right here in pdx! Nope I haven’t been out partyin’ down every night I’ve been hard at work on “Hollywood Babylon” a vintage / modern cothing resale store. Hopefully next time Danzig comes through town he’ll stop by so I can sock him in the face! Oh I’ll be just as happy to sock Jerry Only in the face too!
Also I came down with some sort of flu like fever last night, and it’s kinda funny I tried to watch Twilight: New Moon last night. I must have been sick huh? I made it almost to the end and then just flat out didn’t give a shit. Hey I tried…
Anyway so today feeling a bit groggy I feel like I may need to actually rent myself a good movie to bring my spirits back up-so per a recommendation of a friend I was given this suggestion. Jake West’s “Evil Aliens”.
I actually recently did a blog about his latest movie Doghouse and this one looks just as good! It supposedly came out in 2005-how the hell could this have slipped under my radar? Check out the trailer:
Zac Efron as Kaneda…BARF!
Oh my god yeah so great news on the horizon! It seems Hollwood has chosen another amazing untouchable film to thoroughly fuck up!! YAY! So news has hit (at least for me) that mega teen weenie Zac Efron is up for the lead role of Kaneda in the live action bullshit version of the legendary Akira!!!??? Wow that’s so….completely…un-epic…..lame and makes me kinda wanna, well puke in my mouth.
Hi I’m Zac Efron-I’m gonna douche up Akira for you!
Hmm.. maybe they could have gotten a Japanese cast at least? Continue reading
A First Look at Cap!
Finally we get a little closer to really see what the movie Chris Evans version of Captain America is going to look like thanks to Entertainment Weekly. So far so good I say! However we really haven’t gotten a real look at perhaps the most important part of the costume yet-the mask. I have a feeling we’re going to be pleasantly surprised. It seems though from the cover here that we’re most likely seeing his updated version of the costume, as he’s sporting his round shield. From what I gather for most of the movie he’ll be wearing his 1940’s version of the classic costume and using his original shield. There are more pics up online and they all look great-though none yet show his mask…
Let’s hear it for Chinese Popeye!!
Holy shit-you wanna see something truely amazing that will blow your mind? Well look no further cuz it’s time for motherfucking Chinese Popeye to blow it off the roof! Yeah chinese Popeye appears in a movie from 1976 called The Dragon Lives Again in which the soul of Bruce Lee heads off to Hell and meets a number of weird ass people like James Bond, Laurel & Hardy and most incredibly Popeye! But even more rad is that he’s kicking mummy ass all over the place! It’s a dream come true to have a Bruce Lee / Popeye team up bro-down!
I have yet to see this movie in its entirety but after viewing this short clip and being a mega Popeye fanatic this is clearly a must see!! Check this shit out!!! Robin Williams didn’t want you to know that some bad ass beat him to the punch-but man what I would pay to see Chinese and American Robin Williams Popeye duke it out!!
