Sequels, prequels and remakes...oh my!

I started this post on 8/17 and forgot about it. Then I didn't exactly know what to write because I didn't want it to be crazy long so this is what I came up with.

Here are 41 TBA movies to tickle your fancy....







Thundercats - I had the lunchbox when I was younger. Would probably be worth some $$ now. Should be a kick ass movie


Beverly Hills Cop 4 - It's about time Eddie Murphy makes another action movie


Get Smart 2 - I used to watch the show on TVLAND, thought the 1st one was funny but could of been better


Rambo 5 - Didn't see the last one. Is Sly wearing depends yet?


National Treasure 3 - Loved the 1st one. Curious to see what they are gonna do for this one


Inside Man 2


Pirates of the Caribbean 4 - Huge Depp fan, should be good.


XXX 3- the return of Xander Cage - Didn't like that Vin Diesel wasn't in the 2nd one but he returns in this bad boy


Ghostbusters 3 - They are all old but who doesn't love The Ghostbusters?


Hostel part III - 1st one gave me the heebie jeebies


Scream 4 - 3rd one sucked, had a lame plot. I'll still watch this one but just to see what they come up with


Anchorman 2 - original was hilarious, will only be good with Farrell


300 2 - did not expect a sequel to this one....remember the guy with the eye patch?


Super Troopers 2 - didnt need a sequel but why the hell not


I am Legend 2 - ???


Ghost Rider 2 - Wasn't a big fan of the 1st one, hopefully they do a better job


X-men origins: Magneto - Love X-men, a little disappointed in Wolverine though


Bourne 4 - They could make 10 more of these


Toy Story 3 - So excited, I've been waiting years for this sequel


Indiana Jones 5 - Didn't like the ending to 4, don't know if Ford is gonna be in this one. Shia might take over


Tron 2 - Still need to see the original


The Lost Boys 3 - Straight to DVD


Big Momma's House 3 - Are they serious? A bit overdone


The Strangers 2 - Watch the 1st one, pretty good


Harold and Kumar 3 - Should be funny


Wanted 2 - Who is gonna be in this one?


Silent Hill 2 - Fell asleep watching the 1st one, a little confused.


Gambit - It's about fucking time. They teased us with him in Wolverine. Been waiting forever to see him in action


The Green Lantern


Iron Man 2 - The 1st one was so amazing. Robert Downey jr is a great Tony Stark. Don't like the change to Don Cheadle from Terrence Howard


Luke Cage


Nick Fury


Sin City 2 - Awesome


Sin City 3 - Awesome again


Silver Surfer


Superman: Man of Steel - They better get it right this time


The Flash


The Avengers


Thor


Wonder Woman - Hope they use someone hot, Jessica Biel is a rumored


X-Men: First Class

Pride and Glory

I recently just watched this movie like last week and I meant to write a short review but I forgot so here it is now. Normally people don't write reviews for movies that weren't seen in theaters however I'm changing the rules. I totally wanted to see Pride and Glory in the theater last year but somehow I missed that boat. I'm a big Edward Norton fan, that's the main reason I wanted to see it. I have seen just about everything he has done; Primal Fear is his first film, it's awesome if you haven't seen it yet. Okay I'm rambling on and away from the review.

Pride and Glory also stars Colin Farrell and Jon Voight. I'm not going to bore you with the plot summary, you can read that on IMDB. Actually it might be a little tough to talk about the movie without giving you a little plot. For the most part it's about cop corruption and covering it up. Colin Farrell is the corrupt cop and Edward Norton is the detective trying to solve the case. Don't whine, I didn't give anything away that you don't find out within the first 20 minutes. Jon Voight plays Norton's father and retired Captain or some rank that I don't remember at this time (I'm not being paid for this so it doesn't have to be 100% accurate.)

Let's just say part of the movie involves a pissed off Colin Farrell, a hot iron and a crying baby......enough said. This movie is packed with people getting the shit kicked out of them and wild gunfire. If you care this movie was directed by Gavin O'connor who hasn't really done anything else that I know of.

This movie definitely met my expectations. It was very entertaining and I highly recommend it if you are not a brain dead vegetable and if you are well it sucks to be you. I want to apologize to all my loyal avid brain dead vegetable readers, that was uncalled for.
I should of wrote this review last week right after I watched the movie because I don't know what else to say and I've forgotten parts of the movie. Oh well...... add it to your Netflix queue.

Almost Engaged!!

Nicole and I have been talking about our future a lot lately. Our goal is to move into our own apartment by the spring. I can't wait to get out of my house again and move in with Nicole. We spend every minute with each other anyway so that part wouldn't change. It's the privacy aspect; we have none. I live at home with my mom and she lives at home with her parents. The living arrangements need a swift kick in the ass. I'm ready to start my future with Nicole.
One idea is to transfer to Binghamton University and get a place up there. First Nicole needs to be accepted into their nursing program and then we can get the ball rolling.
This past weekend was probably the strongest our relationship has been. We have been talking about getting married and stuff before but this time was the most serious. I told her I'm ready to propose and get a ring. It gave me such a good feeling just to say and think that. We were at the JV mall on Sunday waiting for her sister to get her hair cut so we took a gander in Zales just for fun. I didn't think we would find anything but the first ring she looked at she loved. It also comes with the matching wedding band for a very reasonable price. It was easier than I thought to find a ring that she liked.



It was and is a big turning point in our relationship.



I get a really good, warm feeling when I think about proposing to Nicole. I don't know when I'm going to do it and I wouldn't want to ruin the surprise by telling you.
You could say that we are in a pre-engagement. I'm happier than I have ever been and I can thank Nicole Ashley Palladino for that. I love her so much.

NASCAR Beef

So I got some beef with the National Association for Stock Car Auto Racing. It is the biggest waste of our natural resources and a huge pollutant to our environment. Have you ever wondered how much gas they use in Nascar? I don't know the actual number but it's probably a ridiculously absurd amount. I'm sure they are using a high octane gas too and not the cheap stuff. Also they go through like hundreds of tires during each race and tires are made up of oil.

Now aren't we as a country trying to help our environment by making and driving economic and hybrid vehicles? How the hell is Nascar helping with our oil problems? We don't have enough oil to last us in our lifetime but we can waste it on driving in a circle for 500 miles!?!

I don't even get Nascar anyway. How is it fun to watch cars make left turns for like 3 hours? Most people watch it hoping for a crash anyway. I have watched some Nascar in my lifetime and I was not entertained. I will give credit to the drivers though, it probably takes a lot of skill driving inches away from 20 other cars going 200 mph. Maybe I need to be a redneck or have my own ambulance in order to understand and enjoy it.

Of course the government isn't going to get break up Nascar because they make way too much money off of it. Just like fucking cigarettes but that's another post in of itself.

The Truth Hurts

I'm sorry to be the one to tell you this but your Mom and Dad lied to you....

(I bet you were an ugly baby)

It might look a little dirty because I wore it to work...haha
