Report: Tom Hanks teaming up with Green Day to bring “American Idiot” to the big screen…

1 Comment

It’s no secret that Tom Hanks is a big music lover but who knew that he is a huge fan of Green Day? It seems that he is. If you pay attention to the “American Idiot” album, the album is kind of like a theatre musical, that’s why it is headed to Broadway later this Spring. Now expect this to head to the big screen with the help of Tom Hanks.

Will Tom get himself an acting role in the “American Idiot” movie or will he direct it? Who knows, he could do either one or both if he wanted.

Report: CGI animated “Popeye” coming to the big screen in 3D…

Leave a comment

Damn, it’s about time that Popeye is getting some new big screen treatment! Popeye deserves it! I’m actually very excited for this, ’cause I’ve always been a massive Popeye fan myself. I’ve obsessively watched the cartoon series as a kid and even watched the live action movie with Robin Williams many many times.

It’s gonna be great to see Popeye, Olive Oyl, Poopdeck Pappy and Bluto back on the big screen but in a whole new style! Can’t wait. 🙂

Report: Stone Temple Pilots to release new album, May 24th…

Leave a comment

The reunited Stone Temple Pilots have already finished their new album and it’s ready for release. The album will have no title and it will be released this Spring, on May 24th.

Lets hope this is a good one and hope they return to their old grunge roots. I like STP a lot, but only their first two albums. I thought “Core” and “Purple” were both incredible and amazing records. Everything else the band did after those two albums weren’t that great.

I’ll get this album through Itunes when it’s out.

BREAKING NEWS: Captain America is finally casted…

Leave a comment

Marvel films have finally casted their Captain America, and that is Chris Evans. I actually feel pretty good about this casting. Nothing amazing or mind blowing, but pretty good. I’ll take anybody but that overrated Channing Tatum.

Lets hope they make this a good movie ’cause I always liked the Captain America character.

BREAKING NEWS: John Malkovich and Frances McDormand to star in “Transformers 3″…

Leave a comment

Michael Bay himself announced some shocking news that suprised the movie industry. “The Transformers” director, revealed that he signed John Malkovich and Frances McDormand to star in the next “Transformers” installment. Both who are Oscar winners. This wasn’t the first time that John and Frances starred in a film together, as they starred in the Coen Bros., “Burn After Reading”. Most would know who John Malkovich is, but for those who are not familiar with Frances McDormand, she is the wife of one of the Coen Bros. She was also in movies such as “Fargo”, “Almost Famous”,  “Miller’s Crossing”, and more. The surprising thing is, who knew John and Frances were fans of Transformers?

I hope Michael Bay makes “Transformers 3” a better film ’cause I hated “Revenge of the Fallen”. Lets hope they do a good job with the next one.

Thought: Could Kane actually win the Money in the Bank ladder match?

Leave a comment

There’s gotta be a reason that Pete Rose is hosting RAW tomorrow night. My guess is that it has something to do with Kane at Wrestlemania. As some of you wrestling fans may know, Pete Rose, the baseball legend was known to interfere in Kane’s matches. Kane and Pete Rose had a feud for a long time. Since Pete is hosting RAW tomorrow, expect a heated confrontation with Kane and Pete Rose. Kane will probably threaten Pete to stay out of the “Money in the Bank Ladder Match” but Pete will probably be there.

I originally predicted Drew McIntyre, a new wrestler will win this match, but thinking about Pete Rose, Kane could possibly get it. I doubt Kane will win, ’cause he always gets screwed at a Wrestlemania, but who knows, maybe the Big Red Machine could get lucky this year.

Thought: Vince McMahon vs. Bret Hart at Wrestlemania 26, who will win the match?

2 Comments

So Wrestlemania 26 is just around the corner, it’s next Sunday folks! To be honest, I’m not very excited for this year’s Wrestlemania. Not a very exciting card this year. I am looking forward to seeing a few matches though. Bret vs. Vince is one of them. I will say what my prediction is on who will win this match. Who will win? This answer may surprise you….

Who I think will win this match Bret Hart vs. Vince McMahon….the winner will simply be no one other than Vince McMahon. Why? Because on RAW the last few weeks, they have been showing clues that Vince could possibly win. They’ve been making it look like Bret Hart is going to beat Vince no matter what. Not gonna happen. Bret Hart’s run in WWE will be up to Wrestlemania. If Vince wins, it’ll be Vince’s way of retiring Bret for good. Bret will probably get a “You’re Fired” from Vince after the match.

Yes, Vince will probably get some help from other fellow wrestlers to help him win the match. Maybe a surprise run in interference with Shane McMahon or maybe another returning wrestler that is about to surprise the audience. Anyway, something huge and shocking will happen in this matchup.

I’ll watch Wrestlemania of course, but I feel this year’s card, is just a typical RAW episode. Other matches I look forward to is “Shawn Michaels vs. Undertaker” and “The Money in the Bank” ladder match. That’s it, I think. Who knows, maybe the ppv will actually end up being a real good one, but I am predicting there will be like one or two good matches.

Michelle “Bombshell” McGee is actually kind of hot…

Leave a comment

Man, I like those tattoed covered ladies. I actually find this woman quite attractive so I can’t blame Jesse James for wanting to shag her. As for her Nazi poses, I wouldn’t go calling her a Nazi or go calling her a racist or whatever. Maybe she just has an interest in World War II history and wanting to show that she is into that history stuff. Maybe she’s a history buff like a lot of people and wanting to show it. It’ll create controversy, sure, but whatever it takes to promote her modelling career more power to her. As far as Michelle Bombshell goes, I would totally hit it!

Report: “Monster Squad” remake is on it’s way to the big screen…

Leave a comment

I know a lot of people are thinking this is a shitty idea, another pointless remake, etc. To be honest, I think a “Monster Squad” remake is a good idea and it needs one. The original was real good, but a lot of it could use many improvements with the special effects. Especially the effects with the amulet and the portal at the end of the movie. If Platinum Dunes can make the “Friday the 13th” remake really good, I’m sure they won’t fail with the “Monster Squad”.

It’s going to be interesting to see who’ll they get for Dracula. If they were to find a Dracula they would have to find a face that matches the Dracula from the original film. Also wonder who’ll get the role for the Scary German Guy or Det. Crenshaw (Stephen Macht’s role). Will any of the original cast even make a possible cameo apperance? Brent Chalem who played Horace won’t be able to ’cause he’s dead, but hopefully there will be some kind of reference to Brent in the film as a tribute to him.

I would like to see Andre Gower, Ryan Lambert (Rudy) or Stephen Macht, make a cameo. It would be sweet, I’m sure one of those guys would make an appearance.
