Stallone news

Report: Sly already planning “Expendables” sequel if first one does well in box office…

Leave a comment

Stallone says, he is already planning a sequel to “The Expendables” if the first one does well in box office. He also says, he already has an idea for the story for the next movie. If “The Expendables” does well in box office, don’t be surprised if “The Expendables 2” could be Sly’s next project.

More on it here:

What actors would you like to see in the next, “Expendables” movie? I’m sure Sly will try to bring back Jason, Dolph, Jet, Randy, and Steve Austin for the next movie. Hopefully when Arnold’s done with governor, Arnie can play throughout the whole movie next time. Maybe Bruce Willis can get more screen time too.

What about other actors? I’d like to see Kurt Russell get added to the cast. I also want to see George Clooney, Robert Deniro, Nicolas Cage and maybe Mark Wahlberg. What about muscle guys? I’m thinking Tyler Mane might be good. Tyler Mane is the huge big guy that plays Micheal Myers in Rob Zombie’s Halloween and he was also in the “X-Men” movies for a few films. Maybe WWE superstar, John Cena. John Cena has been doing a lot of acting in films as of late, he might be a good addition to the Expendables cast. For another UFC guy, I’d say, Quinton Rampage Jackson? Quinton did a good job in the A-Team movie, so why not add him to the Expendables?

Can’t wait to see the movie soon!

Thought: Don’t be so quick to assume Fantasia tried to kill herself over a married man, wow!!!

Leave a comment

So former “American Idol” star, Fantasia Barrino, attempted to kill herself with Aspirin and Sleep Aid. Reports claim that it could be because she was overwhelmed and depressed that she had an affair with a married man. Really? Do you have to be this quick to jump to conclusions? Maybe it was more than just that. Read her past, do research on what her life was like before her fame.

She dropped out of high school because she was raped by a class mate. She got pregnant at the young age of 16, and lots of other bad things happened to her life over the years growing up. Maybe she felt depressed because the rape back in school, came back to her. Maybe she was real stressed out in life. Don’t assume it’s because of this silly sex tape that got all over the internet. I’m sure it was something more personal than that.

The world of gossip news just suck.

Thought: Brock thinks there is nothing wrong with Levi Johnston, he’s all cool with me…

Leave a comment

Levi Johnston might be the public’s most hated figure, but what did he do wrong that upset a lot of people? Sure, he may have shagged Bristol and knocked her up, around the time the Sarah Palin/John McCain presidential election was happening, but I still don’t understand the controversy. Bristol may have been 16 or 17 at the time she was pregnant, but I believe the legal age of consent for sex in Alaska is 16. So as long as it’s legal in Alaska, there’s nothing wrong with that, in my book.

Sure, he posed for “Playgirl” magazine for more publicity and to try to get a career in the entertainment world. That incident may have sparked the outrage at Levi, but hey, whatever it takes to get your name out there, more power to him. The guy is just doing whatever makes him happy, that’s the beauty of America, is the freedom to do what you want to do and make your own choices. If he wants to use the Palin family just to try and get into the entertainment business that way, honestly, that’s a pretty smart way to go.

All Levi wants is to love Bristol and their son, Trig, just like any man would want. Why is it so hard to understand? I’m sure Levi is not the bad guy that the public is making him out to be, I’m sure he’s just a normal dude like most of us men. Men hates getting dumped and they hate losing custody of their child. So can you blame Levi for starting stuff with the Palins? Oooops, correction, Levi didn’t really start anything. If Sarah and Bristol didn’t open their big mouth, then the whole world would be cool with Levi.

Yes, I’m a Sarah Palin fan and supporter, but I don’t like her feud with Levi Johnston. It’s gone on far enough. When Levi got re-engaged with Bristol, we all thought the family was on good terms. Then Bristol broke off the engagement again, blaming Levi that he was playing her. Here we go, the Levi vs. Sarah feud starts up again. After this nonsense, Levi gets a deal for his own TV reality show and he now wants to run for Mayor of Wasilla. Is this Levi’s way of giving payback for Sarah? It seems so.

Levi’s done nothing wrong at all. He’s just being a man and wants to take care of Trig as well. It’s Bristol and Sarah that are acting like a couple of bitches. It’s them who are trying to make Levi look ridiculous in the media. Maybe Levi wanting to be mayor is nothing personal against Sarah at all? Maybe around the John McCain/Barack Obama election, inspired Levi that he wants to get into politics himself, so he’s using Sarah as an inspiration and influence.

Keep doing your thing, Levi, and don’t let the Palins bring you down!

WWE news

Thought: John Cena might turn heel and join Nexus this Sunday at Summerslam, here’s why…

Leave a comment

A lot of people don’t think John Cena is ever going to turn heel, because of his fanbase with children…but I think Cena will turn heel. I will about to explain why here. Summerslam is this Sunday, it will be a 7 on 7 matchup between Team WWE vs. Nexus. I have a feeling that John Cena will turn heel and join Nexus this Sunday.

You see, Cena may have a very popular fanbase with children, but most of all, John Cena is one of today’s most hated superstars. He always got a mix of boos and cheers from the crowds at RAW shows. So in reality, I think it would be a perfect time to turn Cena heel. Plus, John Cena makes an interesting badguy than a babyface. He did play a heel before he turned babyface. Why would John Cena make a good Nexus leader?

Simply because, Nexus needs a star power leader. Wade Barrett makes a good leader, but Barrett doesn’t have that star power yet, that Nexus needs. Nexus needs somebody even better and more intense. You know how back in the 90’s during the nWo days, when Hollywood Hulk Hogan was the nWo’s star power leader? Well it would be the same with John Cena if he ever become leader of Nexus.

There are hints that John Cena may turn on Team WWE this Sunday. The past several weeks on RAW Chris Jericho has been bashing John Cena, saying how Cena is much worse than Nexus. Jericho explains how Cena takes over WWE worse than Nexus does. Is that a hint? Absolutely! What about when Chris Jericho and Edge quit Team WWE and rejoined on last Monday’s RAW? Is that another hint? Yes!!!! Why do you think the Nexus are interested in John Cena so much? Really think about these things.

Nobody wants to see Cena do this, it’ll totally ruin his fanbase with children, yes, but WWE already tried that when they turned Hulk Hogan, The Rock, and Stone Cold heel years back. Nexus needs Cena as their leader. That’s why they keep going after him. Nexus can make a lot of historical moments with Cena as leader. Plus, most importantly, Cena being leader can help Wade Barrett get his first shot at the WWE title.

What can WWE do to keep Cena heel so fans can stop cheering him? He needs to get rid of this “U Can’t See Me” catchphrase, and stop doing that waving his hand in front of his face thing. He needs to talk trash at the WWE and at his own fans. Things like that. When Cena turns on Team WWE to join Nexus in the 7 on 7 matchup, maybe Cena can get a replacement with a possible return of Triple H???

I’m thinking about watching Summerslam this weekend, not sure if I will or not. Trying to cut down on ppv’s.

Thought: What’s next for Soundgarden???

Leave a comment

So, Soundgarden, played Lollapalooza 2010 over the weekend. They just played their usual greatest hits on that gig. Most band reunion’s are silly but Soundgarden is the only band reunion that is worth happening. Why? Because, the world felt Soundgarden ended their career so quick, they ended their career so early. Soundgarden fans felt like the band could have gone on longer which is the sudden breakup for the band. It was too early for the band to call it quits in the early 90’s after their ’96 album “Down on the Upside” their last studio record.

All we can do is hope and pray for a new Soundgarden album in the future and a full time World tour. That’s the point with these few new Soundgarden gigs. They were a test to see if they still had their popularity and to see if they still have that “energy”. Well, we all know that Soundgarden still HAS IT! While the band didn’t yet announce a new album and new tour, it could be a possibility that it might happen. Their Lollapalooza gig was a hit. So I don’t see why it wouldn’t happen.

The last few Soundgarden gigs, it definitely looked like they were very happy to be back and having fun again. So I think they WILL stay around longer. The band soon to be releasing, “Telephantasm” is a little hint of that. I’m sure the band is discussing a full time return so we’ll have to wait and see. I don’t care about other band reunions, but Soundgarden deserves to stick around for a lot of reasons.

Report: Reese Witherspoon to play music legend, Peggy Lee!!!!

Leave a comment

Oscar winner, Reese Witherspoon is set to play jazz legend Peggy Lee, for a biopic film. Reese played June Carter for the “Walk the Line” Johnny Cash biopic, and now Reese gets her chance to star the leading role in a biopic film.

I don’t know much about Peggy Lee, but this is an interesting role for Reese. This also sounds like another Oscar nomination for Reese. Reese is the perfect choice to play Peggy ’cause they both look almost exactly alike!

How Sylvester Stallone saved his almost destroyed career….

Leave a comment

So Sylvester Stallone is in the mainstream of Hollywood again. Before the film, “Rocky Balboa”, Sly’s career was almost dead. It seems that everyone forgot who the man was. Before “Rocky Balboa” Sly’s last big screen movie, was “Driven”, a movie about race cars that was directed by Renny Harlin. The film “Driven” was a failure, a box office flop. Why did it fail? Simply because the movie was bad and Sly didn’t star the lead in it, Sly was only in “Driven” for a small role. After “Driven” was released, Sly began doing movies for the independent industry of film aka indie films for straight to DVD. His next few straight to DVD films, were “D-Tox/Eye See You”, “Avenging Angello”, and “Shade”. Those films really didn’t go anywhere either.

So what could Sly do to save his dying career? That’s right, star in a movie for children, which he starred in, “Spy Kids 3D: Game Over”, he played the main villain, the Toymaker. Sly played several different roles at once in that film as a matter of fact. “Spy Kids 3D” was obviously a huge success as it helped bring Sly back in the mainstream just a little bit. Shortly after the film, Sly announced shocking news that he had plans for a “Rocky 6” which is now titled, “Rocky Balboa”. Sly had a long battle against MGM to release “Rocky Balboa” ’cause they wouldn’t work on it because of Sly’s age. They felt like he was too old for the character. Now that Sly and MGM are on good terms, they released the film. “Rocky Balboa” did well in box office, but it wasn’t a huge hit as everyone hoped it would.

Next, Sly decides to try and bring Rambo back to the big screen for the fourth time. The film “Rambo” did pretty well in box office, did a little better than “Rocky Balboa”. After the success of Rocky and Rambo being back, Sly got a deal with Nu-Image Milllenium to make a few more films with them. So Sly came up with an idea of making an action movie full of other action stars, which is “The Expendables”. Sly’s been working on “The Expendables” for the past couple of years, and now it is finally here. Will the “Expendables” movie do better than the new “Rocky” and “Rambo”? Sly making “The Expendables” is just his way of seeing what he can do outside of Rocky and Rambo.

I predict that “The Expendables” will be Sly’s biggest film, since “Rambo: First Blood part II”. It’ll be bigger than “Demolition Man” and “Cliffhanger” as well. Will the “Expendables” top Christopher Nolan’s movie, “Inception”? Definitely. Could “The Expendables” top the “Dark Knight” or even, “Avatar”? I don’t think it’ll go up that far world wide, but maybe “The Expendables” can actually make the top ten.Sly doing Spy Kids was a good move. It may have been silly and goofy for Sly to star in a kids film like that, but if Sly didn’t star in Spy Kids at all, then Rocky and Rambo wouldn’t have came back, and the Expendables wouldn’t have been made. Sly would still be doing straight to DVD movies if he didn’t do Spy Kids.

You gotta ask, what’s next for Sly after, “The Expendables”? I’m not sure yet. Sly hasn’t announced his next project yet, although he has talked about doing the Gotti movie, the Death Wish remake, and the Edgar Allan Poe biopic. He also talked about an “Expendables” sequel at times as well. Nothing’s been confirmed yet. Will Sly continue to be box office king after “The Expendables”? I think he will.

This movie will especially help Dolph Lundgren’s career as well. Dolph directed straight to DVD stuff for most of his life, and maybe his future films will get big screen treatment because of the “Expendables” movie. The “Expendables” film will give all actors in the film good opportunities for their future. Steve Austin retired from wrestling so he can focus on an acting career. Steve appeared in films such “The Longest Yard” and “The Condemned”. He starred in a few straight to DVD movies as well, such as “Damage” and “The Stranger”. “The Expendables” will help Steve Austin’s career get bigger as well. The same with Randy Couture. Other than Randy’s UFC career, Randy does star in a few films here and there, but mostly independent films such as “Red Belt” and “Scorpion King 2”. I think “The Expendables” will help Randy get into more big mainstream films in the future. Jet Li has always been known as a huge icon. Mickey Rourke is well known too, but with his movies like “The Wrestler” and “The Expendables” helped him get into “Iron Man 2” and many other big films. Jason Statham has always been well known, he’s done action movies such as “The Transporter’, “Crank” and others but they weren’t as big and mainstream. “The Expendables” will help Jason become a household name like Sly. Terry Crews is an underrated actor that no one knows about, and now that guy is everywhere in the media.

I can’t wait to see, “The Expendables” movie, I’ve been waiting a long time to see this. Sly is finally back to where he is, doing action movies with him as the leading star. I’m sure Sly will announce his next project when ever he’s done promoting, “The Expendables”. I think Sly will announce his next project sometime this fall. Looking forward to seeing the film this weekend!!! 🙂

Brock reviews “Friday Night Lights – Season 4” ***SPOILERS***

Leave a comment

Well here it is, “Friday Night Lights” Season 4 is over already. It has came and gone. I must say that this season was a HUGE improvement from the first three seasons. The first three seasons were pretty good but the show needed a lot more improvements in the writing. I thought “Season 4” of FNL was the most powerful and emotional season of them all. No complaints at all for Season 4, as I thought it was the best season so far.

The Season begins with Coach Eric Taylor (Kyle Chandler) no longer being coach of the Dillon Panthers. So Coach Eric forms his own football team called, the Lions instead. Eric Taylor loves football too much that he can’t give it up and wants to show his passion for football by continuing with coaching. In the beginning of the series focuses on Coach Eric struggling to keep the Lions together. There is a handful of new players for the new team, except the only returning player from the earlier seasons being part of the team is Landry Clarke, who was a former Panther from the earlier seasons. There is a new character named, Vince, who is black who Coach Eric tries to help him from getting in trouble with the law so he could stay with the team because Eric is impressed with Vince’s running skills. Vince is a troubled kid who is a criminal and he forms a friendship with Coach Eric. Later on, in the season, Eric almost came this close to losing the Lions team because he couldn’t get along with his team mates.

Then, Tim Riggins (Taylor Kitsch) came along and helped Eric get his team back. Tim Riggins becomes friends with a girl named Becky and she and her mother offered him a place to stay in the trailer next to their home. Becky confesses that she is pregnant to Tim, and that a character named Luke is the father of the baby. She wants to have an abortion because she is afraid of what her mother will do if she finds out about it. Tim takes Becky to Tami Taylor for her help. Becky then decided she wants to keep the baby after learning from Tami’s advice. Tami learns that Luke’s mother is trying to get Tami fired from principal as Dillon high over this abortion thing. All of a sudden, the entire town of Dillon hates the Taylors for this abortion thing she tried to help Becky with. Now Tami is in danger of getting fired of being principal of Dillon High. Becky wants a romantic relationship with Tim Riggins, but Tim says no because he still have feelings for Lyla Garrity (Minka Kelly). Then a love triangle drama breaks out over this. Lyla is not in this season because the character is away for college, but Lyla did visit Dillon for a few episodes.

Billy Riggin’s wife, Mindy, is pregnant and is also about to have a baby soon. Billy is Tim’s brother. Billy and Tim needed money to help take care of Mindy’s baby. They couldn’t really think of anyway to make more money, so they put on a stripper party at the Riggin’s home to benefit money from that. After that, Tim and Billy still needed money. Tim tries to get a job somewhere out in town with the help of Becky, but no job would hire Tim at all. So Tim learns that Billy is at his car garage. Billy is working on stripping cars that were stolen and to sell the car parts for money, which is something known as illegal trafficking. Tim decides to help his brother out so Tim can make more money off of that which is a crime.

After Billy’s wife, Mindy, finally had her baby. Tim begins to feel like a happier person again because he is now an Uncle. At the same time, Tim feels terrible because he was caught and arrested with the trafficking crime earlier. The season ends with Tim turning himself into police and he’ll blame himself for the crime. Tim wanted to keep his brother, Billy, out of prison so he can be there for his newborn son. Tim was willing to go to prison instead to save his brother’s family. Which this is a perfect way to end the season.

This season had some good story lines, but the story line I loved the most, was the Tim Riggins storyline. In the earlier seasons, pretty much everyone in Dillon hated Tim Riggins, he was a character who was always drunk and a bit of a womanizer. This season, made the Tim Riggins character very special. Everybody saw Tim as a drunken loser but Tim wanted to prove that he can be a good guy and can help other people. This season Tim pretty much helped everybody. He helped Coach Eric, Luke, Tami Taylor, Becky, Billy, etc. For all this, Tim went to prison ’cause he was willing to do it.

It was a pretty impressive season. The show isn’t completely over, as there will still be Season 5 for next year. Season 5 will end the show completely. I’m sure Taylor Kitsch will be back for Season 5 and it will be interesting to see how he is going to be released from prison for next season. This season has been Kyle and Connie’s best acting.

I look forward for more FNL next year!

Thought: Why are too many people interested in my sex life? Stay out of it!

Leave a comment

There are too many people online these days that seems to be interested in my sex life. Talking about it and questioning it. If you think I’m going to discuss these things with people publicly online, think again. You don’t see me getting into your sex life, do ya? Alright then, stay the hell out of mine. I don’t know where all the gay/bicurious rumours and the weird fantasies come from ’cause I tell ya right now, that all those things are not true. I can understand why people think I’m gay or bicurious ’cause I’m single and haven’t really dated a woman in a long time, and I’m into fitness/bodybuilding. I’m also a fan of UFC/WWE and action movie stars, that’s could be another reason.

I’m a 100%, straight. I love women all the way. Really I do. Yes, I may be into porn and naked women and all that, I might have a few weird sexual fantasies here and there but doesn’t everybody? I’m sure even you have some weird and dark sexual fantasy in your life. I’m pretty sure a lot of you are into much weirder things such as Bondage/BDSM, maybe you’re into the swinging life style, maybe you’re the type of couple that likes to get it on with other couples, etc. Things like that, I think you’d get the point. There’s nothing wrong with having sexual fantasies ’cause everybody has ’em.

If other people have weird fantasies, that’s fine, I don’t care, that’s their business. Let them enjoy what they want to enjoy, it’s not for you to get into. These things are meant for their own privacy and enjoyment. People picking others for this kind of stuff is wrong and childish. People having sexual fantasies, no matter what it is, it’s a normal thing. It’s what couples and singles do in their sex life.

I will not talk about these things with people. Like I said, it’s none of your business but my own.
