Cool Video: New Tron lightcycle revealed at San Diego Comic Con for TR2N sequel!!!

Disney’s “TR2N”, the sequel to the video game film that stars Jeff Bridges is coming soon to the big screen as we all know. At the San Diego comic con at Flynn’s bar as you see in the first movie, they revealed the brand new lightcycle for the sequel of Tron. Yes, you will see this new lightcycle in the next movie, the lightcycle looks so much different than the one in the first movie.

Check out this exciting video. The new lightcycle is looking cool. I’m looking forward to “Tron 2” most definitely, and glad Jeff Bridges is still playing Kevin Flynn in the leading role.

With all the new technology of filmaking of CGI, I can’t blame them for wanting another Tron movie. I fucking LOVE the first “Tron” film, but I’m sure the next “Tron” movie will be a blast to watch.

Check it out.  Man, I wish I could afford another trip to San Diego again ’cause I would love to be part of these Comic Con events live in person. I will be sure to keep this in mind for next year’s San Diego comic con. I wanna experience these events myself.

Thought: Erin Andrews peeping tom hotel controversy…this is her own fault that this has happened…

I have been following the Erin Andrews, sports news reporter where her privacy has been invaded, while being video taped naked in her hotel room. Pretty interesting stuff.

Of course, something like this would have happened to her. She should have known it. She’s becoming a recognizable sports news reporter because of her young good looks. She looks like a porn star. Maybe she didn’t realize her fame is rising, and now this has got out, she will realize she’s a big celebrity now.

Now that she has got her name out in the world, she’ll have to realize that these things happens. She should avoid hotels and should just sleep on a bus or an RV for traveling if she wants more privacy. If you stay at a hotel, it is still a public place where other hotel customers think they can do what they want there.

It’s going to be difficult to find out who’s responsible for this. So I think she’s wasting her time on this fight. If the peeping tom left any evidence behind, or witnesses saw him, that’s one way to find out, but these peeping tom’s are pretty smart and intelligent to not get caught. Only way to find out who did this, if this peeping tom came out and confess to it.

Just like Sarah Palin and Carrie Prejean, the porn industry is going to love Erin Andrews too. These women don’t want to be looked at in this porn star way, but that’s the price you get when these beautiful women become famous.

Nude pics and nude videos happens with pretty much every celebrity out there.

Things like this can happen even when you’re not famous. It can happen to anyone, anywhere, anytime. If you’re good looking and hot, whether you’re a man or a woman, some obsessive person will spy on you changing in your bedroom or where ever you are.

If you don’t want that shit happening to you in your hotel rooms or at home: 1) Close the window shades when you’re undressing in your bedroom 2) Make sure you’re bedroom door is shut 3) If you’re in a hotel, make sure the doors are locked even when you’re in, make sure your video cell phone is turned off and where you can see it.

You may think a lot of hot looking and sexy women will be confident in showing their naked bodies, but not all of them.

New “Expendables” pics, these ones are badass, you gotta see for yourself!

WOW! “The Expendables” is looking so amazing, I just can’t wait to see this film. Check out these newest pics that just surfaced the net.

I love the last two with Jet Li pointing the gun out of the car, and Eric Roberts covering the girl’s face with his hand. Movie is looking badass! I wish we don’t have to wait all the way to April of 2010 just to see it.

Report: Star Wars: The movie series, Star Wars: The Animated series, Star Wars: The Live action TV series, and now Star Wars: The concert tour?

George Lucas maybe done with the 6 Star Wars films, but his huge ego lately is doing whatever it takes to keep Star Wars going.

Lucas has done “Star Wars: The Clone Wars” the animated movie, then he’s planning an animated series and live action TV series both at the same time. Now he is planning a concert tour?

Yep, you hear that right. There will be an orchestra and choir playing the music from all of the Star Wars movies created by legendary composer, John Williams. The C-3po actor, Anthony Daniels will be at these tours to host them and to narrate them. He won’t be out wearing the golden robot suit.

The Associated Press reports:

George’s obsession with Star Wars is getting even stronger! He’s gotta make a living somewhere since he won’t be successful doing anything outside of Star Wars!

Brock’s 5 Films a week #6: DVD shopping…

I know I haven’t been doing this in a while. I guess I haven’t been looking around for DVD stuff ’cause I don’t do that too much since I’m into video games now. I have been buying several DVD’s lately.

Here are some that I bought recently, I will post without pictures this time:

1. Tim Burton’s “Coraline”

(The animated film “Coraline”, I have been hearing good things about. Never saw it before, so I picked it up to check it out for myself. I’m sure I’ll like it)

2. Knowing

(The sci fi-thriller that stars Nicolas Cage, I watched this film just last weekend. I saw this in theater when it first came out, and I still loved the film. Film looked great on my TV and sounded great on the home theater)

3. Gran Torino

(I picked up the Clint Eastwood film, “Gran Torino” on DVD. Haven’t watched it on DVD yet, but will soon this week, when I get around to it.

4. Friday the 13th remake – Uncut version

(I bought the uncut version of the Friday the 13th remake, I know I thought the film was pretty good but could be better, but if I watch it on DVD again, maybe I’ll like it even more, who knows.)

5. Macho Man Randy Savage – “Macho Madness” 3 Disc DVD set

(I picked this up a while back, only watched the 1st disc so far and it is great, haven’t watched the other two discs yet, but will whenever I want to relax and watch DVDs)

Report: Amy Winehouse steps out in the public for the first time in a while…and surprisingly looking really good! Wow!

The now divorced and officially single, Amy Winehouse, has been laying low lately. Here she is arriving at court, she is being accused of getting into a fight with a woman named, Sherene Flash.

Damn, check out her picture. She’s looking mighty fine and jaw droppingly beautiful.

Report: It’s “Weird Al” Yankovic vs. James Blunt…

James Blunt is defnitely no fan of “Weird Al” Yankovic. Does Mr. Blunt have a sense of humor? Apparently not.

Al Yankovic asked Mr. Blunt by e-mail for permission if Al could include his parody, “You’re Pitiful” for Al’s next greatest hits album. Guess what? Blunt managers fired an e-mail back to Al Yankovic, ordering Al to not include the song on any future greatest hits album.

Flashback, Blunt once allowed Al to parody the song and make a video for it, for the song “You’re Beautiful”…but Blunt wouldn’t allow Al to put the parody on any of his studio albums.

Al Yankovic, the man himself, isn’t happy about this…as he is all over his Twitter page, complaining about James Blunt’s actions, he’s all over his twitter page making fun of James.

http://twitter.com/ALyankovic

While it isn’t the copyright laws to parody someone else’s work, it’s completely legal, Al is respectful to other musicians work so Al wouldn’t get sued by other songwriters. So Al is very careful about choosing songs to parody.

I think James Blunt has always been a douche bag…so Al should pay no mind to him. James is the one being the prick here…he should be happy that Al respects James Blunt’s songwriting but nope. It’s all ego. James the egomaniac, he thinks he’s too good for “Weird Al” Yankovic.

And congrats to Al on 20th Anniversary of “UHF”. 20th Anniversary edition DVD of “UHF” coming? Maybe a sequel to the movie, “UHF”? Come on, Al, make a “UHF”, sequel. It deserves one. 🙂

Damn you, Disney!

Disney took down all the Alice In Wonderland trailers on almost every video website on the net! They must be pissed at IGN when they uploaded early! I hope IGN doesn’t get sued by Disney for this ’cause it could happen.

“Alice In Wonderland” looks really fantastic though, I think it could be the best Tim Burton/Johnny Depp collaboration ever made.

At least we got a chance to see the trailer before Disney took it down though. I’m sure Disney will release the trailer on their own under their own rights.

Walt Disney does own the copyrights to the “Alice In Wonderland” story as they had that story for years…so it’s their right to do this.

Report: Metallica, Springsteen, Eric Clapton, u2, Stevie Wonder and more to perform at Rock and Roll Hall of Fame 25th Anniversary concert!!!

The Rock and Roll Hall of Fame is putting on a huge 25th Anniversary concert at Madison Square Garden in New York City for two nights on October 29th/30th.

Metallica has been booked to share the stage with U2, Eric Clapton and Aretha Franklin on Oct. 29th. Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band will hit the stage with Stevie Wonder, Simon and Garfunkel, and Crosby, Stills, and Nash.

More on it here:

http://www.metallica.com/index.asp?item=602461

Since Crosby, Stills and Nash has booked as “and friends”, they’re probably going to jam with other famous musicians, assuming Neil Young will be there to reunite with them. Crosby, Stills and Nash didn’t reunite with Neil Young at Glastonbury 2009, but maybe they will at this show.

Yep, you can betcha there probably will be a huge Michael Jackson tribute at the 25th Anniversary of the Rock and Hall of Fame show, because simply put, Michael Jackson was a Hall of Fame inductee back in 2001. Maybe Metallica will cover “Beat It” again like they did at that one Grammy awards show but they’ll play the whole song next time.

James Hetfield singing “Beat It”? It may sound silly, but I think he can nail it perfectly with no problem.

I’m sure all the Hall of Famers would gather around on stage together to jam on some kind of Michael Jackson song together, lets hope they don’t sing, “We are the World/Heal the World”. I think “Beat It” would be the best choice for the Hall of Famers to jam on tributing MJ, we’ll have to wait and see what happens.
