See? I told you it wouldn’t take long for the new “Masters of the Universe” to get a new studio. It seems that Sony has picked it up.

Very cool.
I really am looking forward to this. I am also happy that the new He-Man movie will be taking place on Eternia and not planet Earth like the old movie.
I hope the new one stays true to the cartoon series and the action figures.

Three different producers have acquired to buy the rights for Stephenie Meyer’s adult novel, “The Host”, to be made into a future film. The producers payed for the rights with their own money.
Before you go accusing the book of being a boring litttle teeny vampire story, it is NOT. It’s the only adult novel that Stephenie Meyer has written and it has nothing to do with “Twilight”. This is a science fiction story.
Variety Reports:
I’ve been wanting to read, “The Host” but never bought the book. Reading is one of my favorite hobbies to do, I used to read a book all the time when I was young, but now I read a book once in a while.
I don’t think, “The Host” will be as big as “Twilight” but it still might do well in the box office depending on how the film is.

I just saw Pee Wee Herman on Jay Leno. Yes, Paul Reubens is still Pee Wee. Paul as Pee Wee is looking much older of course, but Pee Wee still has the same speaking voice and that same laugh. Paul still has it, he did a good job playing Pee Wee again. I was actually entertained by this and had a smile on my face watching him on Jay Leno.
If Pee Wee’s return is a huge success, maybe the character will come back to the big screen for a new Pee Wee film, hopefully?
That be sweet if Tim Burton and Paul Reubens reunited, I was never afraid to admit that I absolutely loved, “Pee Wee’s Big Adventure”, it’s actually a great film.

This guy, Chris Sligh, a former Idol, wrote the most intelligent blog about the music industry I’ve ever seen. I totally agree with him on everything, 100%.
Read his blog here:
http://frommymindtoyoureyes.blogspot.com/2009/09/to-idols-realistic-look-at-your-career.html
He’s just giving the Idols a reality check about them thinking they will be a star. Pretty intelligent writing.
I don’t play music ’cause I want fame and fortune, I just play music as a hobby and something I have as a passion. I just play guitar and sing songs just for the love of it, nothing more.
In local music, sorry to say but it’s true, even local musicians would have to get out of their delusions and face reality as well. Most musicians around the Capital District are doing it like if this was a popularity contest, most musicians around this area are obsessed with trying to be established and well known. Not worrying about local fame too much, and concentrating on your music mostly is what’s most important, the way I look at it.
There are too many bands and artists that are obsessed with doing radio interviews, articles with newspapers, etc. That stuff is nice but I never worried about any of that. I just cared about playing my guitar and singing.

Anna Nicole Smith news has been pretty quiet for a long while, it just started back up again, when it was discovered that doctors gave her a long list of drugs.
You can find the news story on TMZ and all over the web.
Me thinks, Howard K. Stern is guilty of this.
If you want to become rich and famous, and become an icon…you’ll have to be careful with it, if you don’t, you’ll wind up like Anna Nicole, Michael Jackson, you get the deal. Fame is a disaster. Be careful of what you dream of.

This is an Albany based local solo artist named Katie Haverly. Met her a couple of times and played a few shows with her in the past. This is a very nice tune, one of the best she’s written. Enjoy.

Floyd Mayweather Jr. and Dana White has been feuding with each other for the past couple of years. I think it’s Dana’s way of trying to talk Floyd into signing with the UFC. Floyd claims he would never sign with the UFC, he prefers to stay in boxing, but I think Floyd could possibly sign with UFC.
If not UFC, I personally would love to see Floyd get in a boxing ring with Dana White. They should settle things in a boxing ring, not back and forth in the media.
Dana’s a pretty well built guy. Although he has never competed in the Octagon himself at UFC, I’m sure he knows some martial arts and boxing skills. It should be Floyd vs. Dana in a ppv fight. I’d tune in if it happens.
On a serious note, I’m sick of seeing Floyd Mayweather Jr. still being undefeated like everyone else. Everytime Floyd has another HBO boxing ppv match, I’ll probably watch ’cause you’ll never know when he’ll lose and i want to witness him losing.
I haven’t watched boxing in many years, used to watch the sport all the time when I was a kid. Watching boxing over the weekend again, it reminded me how cool it was. Boxing is still kind of cool and fun to watch, the sport is no longer popular as it used to be.

Can you picture Patrick Swayze in a horror film? I don’t think he has ever done a horror film at all in his career. Well, Patrick had a small role in the film”Donnie Darko” but it wasn’t really a horror film, kind of a mix with sci fi.
The new zombie film, “Zombieland” which hits theaters Oct. 2nd, their original choice to star in the film for a small cameo was Patrick Swayze as himself as a zombie. Patrick had to say no to it, this was of course way before Patrick was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer. Also asked for the film were Sly Stallone, Kevin Bacon, Joe Pesci, Dwayne Johnson, etc. but they all said no as well.
It is rumoured that Bill Murray said “yes” for a cameo as himself as a zombie.

Well, if the Killers isn’t enough to parody Kanye West, here’s the next one. At the premiere for the new film, “Under Great White Northern Lights”, the director is speaking on the stage and Jack White comes running out, and interupts his speech.
Making fun of Kanye at live events will be an ongoing thing for a long while.

So I’ve started playing, “Ghostbusters – The Video Game” the last couple of days and I’m already becoming hooked to it. The game is pretty amazing so far. The graphics are excellent. The sound is like really impressive on your home theater. The game is also surprisingly very challenging and difficult even if it’s being played in the “profesional” level and I thought the game would be too easy, but it’s not.
It’s great to hear the original voices of Bill Murray, Harold Ramis, Dan Aykroyd and Ernie Hudson doing the voice overs. Listening to those guys in the game, it sounds like they are having a blast playing those characters again and this game shows that they are having fun.
This game is really cool. “Ghostbusters the Video Game” is much like the first movie pretty much.
Thanks to Atari for giving it to us finally! This game rules!
