Ryan Reynolds

Ryan Reynolds has been in a BUTTLOAD of movies recently. I mean, and insane ammount. The Proposal, Wolverine, Adventureland..Apparently he’s going to be in  Greenlantern. I mean, the guy is EVERWHERE right now. Don’t get me wrong, I am not a Ryan Reynolds hater. In fact, I think he is kind of amusing. It’s just that he’s everywhere! Everytime I add a movie to my Netflix queue it turns out that Ryan Reynolds is in the movie, and I wasn’t even aware that he was in it! Again, not a huge issue, except the Netflix Recomendation feature now apparently thinks I am a Ryan Reynolds Fanboy!

I log in, Check my recomendations and it starts shooting Ryan Reynold movies out at me.”Based on your undying loyalty and unconditional love for Ryan Reynolds we suggest you watch: Van Wilder, Just Friends  and The Nines! We have even added a whole Ryan Reynolds category just for you!” or something close to that effect is all the Netflix website has to say to me!

Pretty soon it’s going to start suggestion I watch The Jeff Corwin experience because that’s like….Ryan Reynolds clone. Seriously! Have you guys noticed this? I would be surprised if they weren’t brothers. If they ever decide to do a movie about Jeff Corwin Ryan Reynolds better play in it. For those of you who don’t know who Jeff Corwin is…He’s one of those animal people who go around poking wild animals with sticks on animal planet. Kind of like…a watered down, slightly less crazy version of Steve Irwin.

Oh, and for anyone who says Corwin and reynolds aren’t twins seperated at birth…view the following picture, click it for a larger image.

BAM! Debate settled, picture says it all!

Jericho movie? Yayness!!

Ok, one of my favorite shows of all time was a short lived series on CBS called “Jericho“. It was basically about life after a nuclear attack, and centered on the small town of Jericho, and what happened to them as they struggled to survive this odd point in time. They had to deal with fall out, Bandits/scavengers and even other towns. It was simply great!

Not great enough though apparently, since the show was cancelled after just one full 22 episode season. Which was really crappy because it ended in a HUGE cliffhanger.

I cried with sad.

HOWEVER! Apparently their was enough interest because enough people got a campaign going that ended up bringing the series back for a second season! This second season only lasted 9 episodes however, but did manage to tie up a lot of loose ends. Ever since then, jericho has been silent.

Good news however! Apparently a movie based on Jericho is in the works! Its slated for a 2010 release, but not a lot yet is known. The only thing for certain is that it will reunite the cast, and will not require you to have seen the past episodes to enjoy it. Apparently it’s supposed to be a broader look at the country. not just the town of Jericho.

is that not total yayness though? If you havent seen the series though, I highly encourage you to. The series is available on DVD, and if you have Netflix, then you are set. Not sure if you will like it? I will say this, if you are a fan of Jeremiah then you will love Jericho! Also, I should state that if you love Jericho you will love Jeremiah!

Megan fox and Jolie comparison

Ok, so there’s this article on MSNBC talking about Megan Fox, and in his article the guy seems to imply that Angelina Jolie has talent, and that Megan Fox isn’t as Talented as Jolie.

Now, I will admit that I don’t know how much talent this Megan Fox chick has, because I have honestly not seen anything she’s been in. I did start to watch Transformers, but I fell asleep, because the movie was boring as hell. So, anway, I don’t know who the hell she is! What I do know however, is that “Angelina Jolie” does not have ANY talent as far as I am concerned. I firmly believe she is the most untalented actresses I have ever seen! I have also seen trouts that I thought were more talented than Jolie for christs sake, and I also think she is simply an attention whore. I believe that she is SO fixated on being in the medias eye, that she will do anything to stay in it.

So, I really don’t think Megan Fox could be any less talented than jolie. If she is, then thats just scary…In my opinion anyway.

Ok, now I know theres a lot of jolie fanboys having heart spasms as they read this blog entry shouting at there monitor “Leave Jolie alone!!!!!!” in a fasion not unlike Chris Crocker and his Britney break-down! To those who are majorly upset, I say to you this…Get over it. You’ll be alright in the morning. Not everyone in the world is going to like your idol. It’s a fact of life, and accepting that is a part of growing up.

Punisher Movie Roundup!

The Punisher! I would say he is my favorite Super-hero, but in all honesty, can he be considered a super-hero? If anything he is a criminal, even if his actions are what saves lives. By definition, he is a criminal, I would even go so far as to say he is a Serial Killer. So, since he can’t be really considered a super hero, all i can say he is one of my most favorite comic book characters. He ranks up there with Richard Fell, Yorick, Rick Grimes and Jesse Custer. Although The punisher fits closer to the “Super Hero” category than the comic characters I just mentioned.

There have also been several attempts to capture the greatness of the Punisher comics, and none of them were able to quite do it. There was always something missing. So, let’s take a look at past Punisher flicks, and point and laugh at them til they cry and pee their pants in the sandbox shall we? :)

The Punisher: The WORST punisher film ever released. I am surprised Marvel even allowed this. This is just a vigiliante movie. They stuck the title “The Punisher” on it to try and score with comic book fan boys. Frank Castle through out the movie never even wears the skull! Sure, he has a dagger that has a skull on it, but that’s nothing.

As if the skull thing wasn’t enough, they Changed his wifes name to Julie instead of Maria and instead of having a son and a daughter, he had 2 daughters. Whats the point of EITHER of these changes? Nothing! There’s more changes too. Instead of the family having a picnic and being gunned down by the mob and frank getting left for dead, the writers decided it would be cooler to have Franks family get blown up in a car bomb that was designed for him.

Lot of changes! If they named the main Character to Marc Walrus, I would never have known it was supposed to be the Punisher! It’s obvious to see why this movie flopped! Oh yea, and it had Dolph lundgren, so obviously it was destined for failure.

The Punisher: several years pass, the stench of the 1989 movie of the same name has lifted, movie companies decide “We have more technology now! We can create a more complex piece of cinema crap!” thus they proceeded to create The punisher! This movie too failed and was frowned on by most people actually. I mean, it turned out less crap than Dolphs version, but seriously guys, is that anything to brag about? That’s like saying “Look! My oozing crotch sore drips less puss than yours!”

So, what made the next incarnation of the Punisher suck? Well, for me it was because plotwise the movie borrowed WAY to much from the comics. I mean, esentially i was just reading the Garth Ennis run of my Punisher Comics all mished and mashed and mixxed together. Sadly I don’t believe there was enough originality to hold my interest. I will state though, that out of the three movie released, this is my favorite. That’s not saying much though.

Punisher War Zone: The newest Punisher movie outing. I had hopes for this movie. Three time’s the charm I muttered to myself. I sincerely believed this movie, would at least fall into the realm of tolerable. I was wrong.

To me, it was a hard choice to make. Was the ‘89 punisher flick or this punisher flick the worst movie ever? It was difficult to decide. What did save this movie from being the worst, was at least it stayed true to the comics to a degree. Plus Ray Stevenson made a more realistic punisher than the previous actors.

So, WHY did the newest punisher flick suck? True to source material, Original content, someone that actually fits the bill of Frank Castle? Where did they go wrong? Oh yes! Wayne Knight was in it! Yea, that helped sink it! Also the movie was more boring than watching snot dribble out of the  nose of a sick old man.

BONUS!!: The last two Punisher movies have inspired video games. “The Punisher Video game” was inspired by the second movie in these stinking bombs. It also has the voice of Thomas Jane….and is quite possibly the BEST video game ever produced! No shit? No SHIT!

Not to be outdone, The newest Punisher movie too has inspired a video game. This game is called “Punisher: No mercy” Which at the time of this writing looks like its going to be a piece of crap. I could however be wrong though. If I am, I will be the first to admit that I do indeed suck! :D

Asian Stuff = FREAKY

Okay, I admit, Americans have some stupid ads that just doesnt make any sense. However, America does not have a monopoly on weird ads! In fact, America is an amatuer in weird ads when compared to Asian ads!

Need proof? I can provide you proof! Just watch this japanese “Toilet Time” ad! How freaky is that? What’s that? Looks weird but don’t understand Japanese? Fear not my friends, because there is also a version with english subtitles! yea, I know right? Even stranger in english! In fact, it’s kind of disturbing!

However Korea even has a weird ad! An ad for Tittysambo! It’s a PC….I think.

I am Legend – Game

I am very much into Zombie movies. I feel Zombie flicks are the greatest thing since sliced bread! Most Zombie fans would agree! So, imagine my delight when I head about the movie “I am Legend” Starring Will Smith? It’s a Zombie movie, but with a twist..The basic outbreak scenario is the same…But’s it’s different! So, I am eagerly anticipating this movie!

Also, Zombie fans should be equally delighted to learn that Warner Bros has released a game based on the movie! Sort of, It’s built within the virtual world of Second Life, so it’s not a stand alone game, however it’s quite fun and intense..I suggest checking out the website for more details as well as some video of gameplay!

Old Yeller re-make

So, there’s this site called YouTube. Yea, I know…yer already PERFECTLY aware of it, but thats beside the point really. Like i was saying…The site is there, and for the longest time I have been going and watching videos there and whatnot…HOWEVER! Just recently I decided I was going to put some videos up…Which I did!

Most are just boring vids of me acting stupid, which I do quite well! :) but the vid I did that I will be showing you today is slightly different. I made an animated remake of the classic film “Old Yeller”. Most of you know the movie I am sure, even if you havent seen it….Either way, yer all invited to my cartoon debut! :D

Aside from this remake being a cartoon whats different? well, it’s made for todays youth, so several changes had to be put into place…first its shortened because kids today don’t have a long attention span. Its re-written both to allow it to fit within the new timeframe as well as to make the dialog more understandable to todays youth..

So without further ado…I present to you…. Ol’ Yeller




It's Shaide!

Its me -.-
