“The Surrogates” makes it to the big screen!!
The Surrogates was a great, seriously under-rated, sci-fi comic book! I had always thought it would make a great movie, so it’s nice to see that it finally has made it to the big screen. The premise is simple. The year is 2054, people are using robotic surrogates to live their lives while they remain at home logged into a network. Their surrogates are much more beautiful, perfect versions of themselves and give their real counterparts virtually no risk of danger in the real world.
Terminator: The Ultimate Tribute Song!!
It’s Terminator weekend! Yay! So everyone needs to check out this AMAZING rocking tribute called “I’ll Be Back”. Finally someone writes not only an amazing song but makes a video as well in honor of this amazing movie series!!! You’ll be singing this one all day I guarantee….
Wolverine’s claws: the wrong choice!
A friend of mine just sent me a link to this video and it was pretty awesome! What would you take if given the choice Wolverine’s claws or his healing factor?
Deadpool: the ultimate admitted rip-off!!
Alot of people accuse Rob Liefeld to be somewhat of a hack and almost all of the characters he creates are usually rip offs of existing characters. But to save his soul he did help create one really rad marvel character who has as of recently become insanely popular-Deadpool! So yeah he finally can take claim for something really original and everyone can forget about his famous picture of Captain America sporting gigantic boobs-right? Not so fast. As you may or may not already know Deadpool is an admitted rip-off of DC’s famous villain Deathstroke.
Star Trek the movie = epic.
I had alot of doubts about the new Star Trek motion picture and like you may all know I’m pretty picky when it comes to the the things that I hold dear to me being put onto the big screen. I went into Star Trek with an open mind however and left the theater with my mind blown, already wanting a sequel! I must say Mr. Abrams was truely the man for the job, completely breathing exciting new life into the Star Trek franchise. This incredible movie exceeded all of my expectations. In fact it may even go down for me as the best Trek film ever.
Batman movies should go back to Tim Burton.
“Never rub another man’s rhubarb.”
-The Joker
I was watching the 1989 Batman movie the other day, mainly as an attempt to convince myself that it’s actually another Prince movie (which is the reason I look forward to time travel. I will convince his Purple Majesty to make more), but instead I found myself enjoying it the way I did in the theater that summer as a nine year-old.
Following it up with Batman Returns, I reached a holy shit! type of epiphany: It hit me why I love these movies so much: They feel like comic books. The Joker, The Penguin, the Gotham City sets, the costumes. They were suspenseful but very comic-like. Dark in a way (Pee Wee dumping a child in a sewer at Christmas!), but also really comical (Pee Wee dumping a child in a sewer at Christmas).
This really got me thinking that Tim Burton needs to continue where he left off. He started something great that went on to become something like the comic-book equivalent of the mullet and more recently to the great, but all-too “real”. Batman doesn’t need to be fucking real, he’s Batman! The more I think about, the less I want his costumes and finances explained to me. Fuck Lucious Fox and Research and Development (But let’s keep Morgan Freeman in it somewhere) and dog-resistant kevlar. Why do we even need to know that stuff?
Our New kirk better know how to Kick some ass!!
I am soooo pumped about the new STAR TREK movie opening tomorrow! Now we pass the role of Kirk on to Chris Pine. But for a moment let’s not forget how much of a total bad ass the orginal William Shatner “Kirk” really was and how much ass he kicked! Chris Pine you best have checked this out, cuz man could Kirk give a serious beatdown on his enemies!!
Silver lining in Wolverine movie!
One of the only few good things in the Wolverine movie was Deadpool and today it was announced they are making a Deadpool movie with Ryan Reynolds . Hell Yeah! Deadpool has always been a kick ass character in the Marvel universe with his wise cracking humor, awesome fighting skills, and the breaking 4th wall ability. I have hope that this movie will actually be well done with a great plot mix of humor and action.
Lets keep our fingers crossed!
Godzilla’s legendary secret battle move!! the guy’s got talent…
Check out this absolutely amazing drop kick that Godzilla does in Godzilla Vs. Megalon! Wrestling experts all around the world are still trying to figure out exactly how he pulls this manuever off!! I tried all day today in my backyard to master this move and all I ended up with was a sore back!! Godzilla you are AMAZING!!
X-men Origins: Wolverine’s claws are pretty dull….
So today I decided to go check out X-Men Origins: Wolverine. I was pretty pumped I must say since I have always wanted to see Wolverine in a true gritty hack ’em slash’em onscreen adventure. Plus I have been a pretty big fan of Hugh Jackman as everybody’s fav berserker canuck! Let’s face it folks, Hugh is looking better than he ever has as this character. I’ve always had high hopes for this film since we have the perfect leading man cast as Wolverine and let’s face it it’s gotta be pretty hard to make a crappy Wolverine movie right? Well they went against all the odds and succeeded in making an ultra crap-tastic adventure!! Yes true beleivers Wolverine does indeed, well, kinda suck.
