Cool Video: The Pope gets knocked down by a woman at the Christmas Mass…

Everyone knows about this, so I thought I would post it. I actually thought this was kind of funny. Is this woman that attacked the Pope an athlete? It seems that she is, because she was pretty quick jumping out there. I wonder if she runs for some kind of racing sport or whatever other sport she does. If someone else tried to jump over like that, the security would have took the person away quickly but somehow with her athleticism, she managed to get to the Pope. She has great cardio ability to be that fast.

SNL and the Late Night Talk Shows will be all over this, indeed.

Why “Bad Santa” is the best Christmas movie ever made…

Hey all, and Merry Christmas! Hope you are having a great day so far! I sure am!

A lot of people like to watch, the classic Jimmy Stewart movie, “It’s a Wonderful Life” or “A Christmas Story” every year on Christmas Eve. I used to watch those two movies every year on Christmas but until the comedy, “Bad Santa” came out, things have changed. I now watch, “Bad Santa” every year on Christmas Eve. It’s the comedy that stars Billy Bob Thornton, John Ritter and Bernie Mac.

I think “Bad Santa”, is the best Christmas movie ever made. Yes, the movie is rude and crude, has a lot of nasty adult content that is definitely not for kids. There is a reason for all that in the film to explain this Bad Santa thing. I think the film is simply, the most realistic Christmas movie ever made. I find that most Christmas movies out there that has a lot of fantasy tales that doesn’t even make sense. “Bad Santa” is a movie that makes a lot of sense, and it is real. In real life, there are actual mall Santa’s out there that are short tempered drunks and there are actual mall Santa’s that are criminals.

Other than the hilarious crude humour in the film, the film is also very touching and heartfelt. I love the fact how Willie hates everything about Christmas, it’s like a new version of Ebeneezer Scrooge, close enough. He becomes friends with this little fat kid, because the kid saved Willie from getting butt raped by a guy from a bar. Then Willie helps the kid, Murman Therman, in return by helping him fight back at school bullies. Later in the film, Willie develops a strong friendship with the kid.

More importantly, the thing I loved most about the film is seeing John Ritter and Bernie Mac, acting together in the same scenes. Both are comedy legends and both are dead. RIP, to both of them.

There are many reasons why this film is so great. It’s a controversial film and it’s not for everyone, yes. Bad mall Santa’s can happen for real and it has. As I said, most Christmas movies out there are not realistic but mostly in it for family entertainment. I loved everything about, the “Bad Santa” movie. Non stop laughs, good writing, good acting, etc. This is a film I will never get tired of.

Not A Cool Video: James Cameron gets into a verbal dispute at LAX airport…

TMZ just posted an incredible video of James Cameron at LAX airport in Los Angeles. A fan somehow knew that James Cameron was getting off a plane at LAX so he decided to wait for him with an “Avatar” poster for him to sign. As Cameron walks by the fan, the fan simply asks him for an autograph in a polite tone, but Cameron refused.

Cameron started swearing at the fan, so the fan stuck up for himself by saying he works hard for his day job to see his film, making a clear point that fans help make celebrities rich.

See the video here:

If anybody finds Cameron being an asshole a surprise, then why are you surprised? This is Hollywood. Every movie star or director are different people. Not every famous person is going to be nice.

Why do celebrities act very nice and polite on TV interviews and yet they are mean pricks in public? It’s because it’s the celebs job to keep their profesionalism on public TV. Just because famous people are an icon and so famous, doesn’t mean they’ll be nice and friendly.

Do you think Steven Spielberg is always a nice guy? No, definitely not. Steven Spielberg is also difficult with autographs and photos with fans. What about Clint Eastwood? I’m sure Eastwood doesn’t fuck around with anybody on the director’s chair and he can be mean on the job too.

Every famous person is different. Some can be very nice and friendly, some can be assholes.

So if you’re a big fan of a famous person’s work and idolize them as a huge die hard fan, if you’re dying to meet your hero in person, don’t always expect them to be nice.

Hell, I’ll admit that Sylvester Stallone just might be an asshole, but I know he’s not. I know he’s very good with his fans. As he actually replies to his fans through fan websites such as Stallonezone and Aint It Cool News. Plus, Sly is very good with autographs and photos with fans. I’ve never met Sly in person yet but from the looks of him on the internet, he seems like a very nice guy. What about Arnold? Do you think Arnold is a nice guy? The Governator may seem like it, but he can be a very difficult person too. Every hollywood celebrity is different. They’re humans just like us. They all have different emotions and feelings.

So if you meet a celebrity and if they turn out to be a huge DICK to you over an autograph or a photo, don’t take it personal. I personally think it would be awesome to get yelled at by a famous person.

I give the fan kudos for sticking up for himself against James Cameron. James tried to make the fan look like he was a little kid, but the fan stepped up and made James look like an idiot in front of everyone. Merry Christmas, James. NOT. You’re the king of the nobodies.

Not A Cool Video: I wouldn’t touch, “The Karate Kid” remake with a ten foot pole…

“The Karate Kid” remake that stars Jackie Chan and Jaden Smith has hit the internets, the trailer that is. Like I predicted, the film looks like a pile of shit. I love Jackie Chan. He’s one of my favorite action stars but sometimes he can pick some bad roles…. and this is one of them. Why, Jackie, Why? This movie looks horrible and I won’t be seeing it at all. Not even on DVD. Maybe I will wait to see it when it hits HBO on the small screen. Put Jaden in a bodybag, bwahahahahahahahahahahahahahaahaha….

Kapitol Magazine, new local website…

A new website’s been advertising itself in craigslist today and it caught my attention, it is called, “Kapitol Magazine”. I gave it a look and been finding myself entertained reading it. It’s a funny site made for comedy material and for all in good fun really.

It’s a site about local music to be reviewed with brutal honesty. Kind of like what I do here.

No, “Kapitol Magazine”, isn’t being runned by me, I don’t own the site. Who ever owns it, did a good job.

I know that honest critique in local music creates a lot of controversy, and local people hate it, but, I never understood it. Music gets boring with it being positive and happy all of the time. Music is here for honesty. That’s what music is here for. To put it out there and get honest feedback from people, good or bad.

I’m all for the site, and I love it. There’s even an article on “The Legend” in there, that I totally agree with. I also agree with what they say about Ten Year Vamp as well.

Enjoy it here:

Report: Is Courtney Love abusive and violent to Frances Bean???

That’s what TMZ says. This could explain Frances Bean wanting a permanent restraining order against her own Mom, Courtney Love. Courtney could be abusive and violent to her.

I’m sure those who don’t know much about law, you’re probably thinking, what, I thought “domestic violence” only happens with straight couples?

Well, parents being violent toward their own children can also be considered, “Domestic violence”. Look it up and research it. We all knew that Courtney could have violent mood swings and a temper tantrum, so this comes to no surprise to me. Frances is doing a good thing getting the hell away from this bitch.

Report: Will Sir Patrick Stewart return as Professor Xavier in Singer’s “X-Men: First Class”?

So Bryan Singer has officially signed on to direct the next installment of X-Men which the  next one will be titled, “X-Men: First Class”. This one sounds like more of a prequel because this will focus on a young Professor Xavier and a young Magneto.

The question is, will Patrick Stewart agree to return to the next, “X-Men” movie? We all know Patrick won’t play the young Xavier since he is too old obviously. I imagine that the film will start off as the young Xavier and young Magneto leading up to their adult years.

Singer will probably sign Patrick as the adult Xavier for the film, as well. We haven’t yet heard if Patrick Stewart will return, but I’m sure we will hear something soon. Maybe even Ian Mckellen will return as the adult Magneto as well.

Patrick Stewart took time off from Hollywood to work Broadway theatre full time. He’s still doing Broadway I believe. So  hopefully Patrick will return, we’ll have to cross our fingers.

I miss Patrick on the big screen. He’s a fine actor that deserves an Oscar award for a certain role at some point. I’m sure he’ll return to X-Men.

Report: Jimmy Page ready to rock again…but not revealing what he’s doing yet…

Robert Plant is busy making music with Alison Krauss, John Paul Jones is busy with Dave Grohl for the band, Them Crooked Vultures. Jimmy Page is the only Led Zeppelin member, not doing anything musically at this point and this guy is not waiting any longer!!! He’s dying to make new music and get back on the road again!

Jimmy Page admits he hasn’t done anything since the 02 Led Zeppelin reunion show two years ago and he feels it’s about time to do something new again. He has new music up his sleeve and ready to share it with us.

While he won’t reveal what he has planned for us, he definitely plans on coming back to the music industry in 2010.

Jimmy Page has been well known to collaborate with other artists for years and I wonder what artists will he work with next? It wouldn’t surprise me if he is collaborating with Jack White and the Edge, for an album and tour. Probably is. If I’m wrong, can’t wait to see what Jimmy has got planned. Sounds exciting!

Thought: Perez Hilton is a piece of garbage…

Gossip blogger Perez Hilton is on his site, feeling sorry and sad for her death when the idiot bashed her plenty of times in the past. Googling his past blog entries when he bashes Brittany, I can find plenty of his older posts…

Such as this one calling her loopy and accused her of being on the pills…

http://perezhilton.com/2009-12-02-brittanys-looking-loopy

and this post while writing about her getting fired from a film, he called her “wacktress”:

and this post, he called her a “nutjob”:

http://perezhilton.com/2009-12-01-shes-probably-lying-brittany-murphy-denies-being-fired

In this post while reporting her role of the “Expendables” movie, he called her a washed up actress:

http://perezhilton.com/2009-04-09-brittany-murphy-finally-earns-a-paycheck

You look at his latest posts writing about Brittany’s death,  he’s writing all kinds of nice things about her and feeling sorry for her now?

Check it out:

http://www.perezhilton.com/

Most of the people commenting on his site are doing the right thing bashing the hell out of this guy ’cause he deserves it.

I hope he gets sued by Brittany’s family.
