Thought: Will WWE make “Denver Nuggets vs. Vince McMahon” into a RAW storyline????

Leave a comment

Vince McMahon is in a real life feud against the Denver Nuggets, NBA baketball team owner, Stan Kroenke. It has something to do with their team landing a basketball game on the same day RAW is scheduled to have a show at the same arena. The Nuggets won the battle, and Vince agreed to take the RAW show else where. Of course, Vince is not happy about it and they continue to feud about it.

I think, they won’t battle it out in court, they’ll make it into a WWE storyline. I’m sure the WWE writers are all over this and I’m sure they are dying to make this feud into a storyline, it won’t surprise me if they will.

Vince and Stan probably won’t wrestle a match, but they’ll probably pick a wrestler to be on their side just like the Vince vs. The Donald feud a few years back. Vinnie Mac is scheduled to appear on RAW this Monday, I heard, and don’t be surprised if he goes on there saying a bunch of nasty stuff about Stan Kroenke and the Denver Nuggets.

Top Ten famous bands/artists that the Brock doesn’t like part II…

Leave a comment

Here are more famous bands/artists in the music industry that I don’t really care for, yes, I have lots of ’em:

Prince – Sorry, Prince fans. I’m just not into him. Talented musician, sure, but the songs he writes, I can’t get into.

Bon Jovi – Overrated, overrated, overrated. His music makes me want to yawn.

Dragonforce – I think they are only popular ’cause they shred.

Toby Keith – I like country music and all, but I really hate this guy. His songs aren’t good at all.

Tim McGraw – Another overrated country artist, I don’t really like.

John Mayer – He’s a very talented guitar player, he’s a fantastic axe man…but, he’s a horrible singer and songwriter. Sorry.

Slipknot – The metal band that wears these scary looking masks. These guys are posers. And their music is downright crap.

Lenny Kravitz – “Are You Gonna Go My Way” was the only great album he did, but everything else after that? Blech….

Lilly Allen – I think her hit, “Smile” is actually a great tune, but when I picked up her album, it was the most boring music I ever heard. One hit wonder artist.

50 Cent – I’ve heard his music before. I’m not really into rap music all that much although I’m into very little. 50 Cent is a popular rap artist loved by all, but not with me.

Back from the mall…

Leave a comment

Was going to see “Terminator Salvation” tonight but arrived at the mall too late around the time the movie was playing. So instead, I shopped around with a friend of mine.

I picked up the new “UFC: Undisputed” video game tonight, haven’t tried it yet, but will tomorrow. The game got so many great reviews that I just had to get it for myself. I also picked up the movie “Valkyrie” on DVD and the new Eminem CD, “Relapse”. I actually enjoyed Marshall Mather’s new disc too, very good stuff, in my opinion. I will write more on Eminem’s new CD another time.

Today, I finally got my PS3 system to work with my 5.1. surround sound system, I played “Bioshock” a little bit through it, and as expected, video games sounds amazing through a home theater. I’m too happy with my home theater. I found out you didn’t really need a second HDMI cable. You use an optical fiber cable and do the video/audio settings to make it work. I’m pretty much all set.

I worked an all day shift at my job, then went to the mall right after, that’s why I didn’t blog all day. Notice my blog is slowing down more and more, I’ve been busy as of late. When I get home from work, I spend most of my evening exercising, that’s why this blog is slowing down with posts more.

This weekend, I plan to get a membership at the Fitness Center in Greenwich. I am committed to working out and taking it pretty seriously. I’m not that great at giving fitness advice and tips, since I’m no fitness expert yet, but I’ll just keep blogging my experiences with this stuff as time goes along.

I’ll try to catch up with entertainment news that I’ve been missing for the blog, I’ve been a pretty busy dude lately.

Uh oh, I see a Looney Tunes vs. Mortal Kombat game coming soon? Sub-Zero vs. Bugs Bunny? Scorpion vs. Yosemite Sam? Daffy Duck vs. Raiden? Tasmanian Devil vs. Johnny Cage?

Sounds better than “Mortal Kombat vs. DC Comics” to me!

Brock has found a new passion and that is “fitness”…

1 Comment

Some people would think that exercising may be real boring, tiring, and it maybe painful, but if you stick with it, you would find fitness and bodybuilding, so much fun and addicting. I’ve been loving this now more than ever before. I do this every single day, non stop. I try to work out every body part as much as possible…both the lower body and upper body.

Soon, I plan on getting a membership at the Fitness Center in Greenwich, so I can start working out there two or three times a week after I get out of work.

If you keep at this, you’ll notice a change and a difference in your body, immediately.

Of course, Sly Stallone is my main inspiration for this ’cause this is part of the reason I’m such a big fan of his, not just his movie career. I’m also a big fan of how he does his exercise and bodybuilding too. He proves that you’re never too old to do this and that you can do this whenever you want, you don’t have to start when you’re at a young age, you can start bodybuilding any time.

I know a lot of people out there dream of getting the tough guy muscular look. Stop dreaming about it, and make it happen. You can only live once and if you want something good in your life, to impress people, pursue your muscle dreams NOW!!!!

Being committed to this will be worth it. All them WWE stars, UFC or boxing or action movie stars, they didn’t get that body over night. Yes, a lot of them used steroids and HGH, but it is possible to get a fit body without the drugs, you just gotta work real hard.

Craigslist prostitution is on the rise in the “Erotics” section…

2 Comments

So let me get this straight. Craigslist gets sued by an Illinois Cook County Sheriff to threaten the site to take down the “Erotics” section. South Carolina threatened to press charges against craigslist which they got sued by the craigslist CEO for.

And how about this?

http://www.cnn.com/2009/CRIME/05/20/craigslist.prostitution/

More and more states are fighting to get the “Erotics” section shut down in craigslist.

Why doesn’t craigslist shut down the “Erotics” section? It’s because the site makes them money, that’s why. All they care about is getting some dough in their pockets while innocent young women are being bought by men wanting a fling.

Of course, craigslist and the sites owners continues to defend themselves, maintaining their innocence. Craigslist is not a very good website anyway. I don’t know why so many people bother trying to sell stuff or to get laid on that stupid site when you can do that everywhere else.

If you wanted to sell something, do it at a yard sale or sell it on E-bay. Not an anonymous site like craigslist where you can’t trust anything. I don’t even look at that site anymore. I hope the United States win the battle of taking down the “Erotics” section, or even better to keep people safe…take the craigslist site off the internet altogether. I give the law kudos and respect for fighting back at that aweful website. They are taking a stand at something to what they believe in ’cause they care about people.

Report: Dan Aykroyd says, “Ghostbusters III” could start filming this year, but who will direct?

Leave a comment

Dan Aykroyd, confirms the news that “Ghostbusters III” could start filming this winter. They tried to get Ivan Reitman to direct the 3rd film but he’s too busy producing other films. They said if Ivan turns down the opportunity to direct a third film, Harold Ramis, says he is game to directing the third film himself.

Bill Murray once gave the idea that he would like to see females become Ghostbusters in the new one, look like they are agreeing with Bill’s idea. Dan Aykroyd says he wants Alyssa Milano and Eliza Dushku to be the new female ghostbusting ass kickers.

Alyssa Milano pictured above…

Eliza Dushku pictured above…

I am loving the idea of hot babes being Ghostbusters!!! Great choices on Alyzza and Eliza. They haven’t been casted yet, they were just ideas thrown in by Dan Aykroyd, so hopefully these two gorgeous ladies will get confirmed for the film.

Who will be the new young male Ghostbusters? As long as they don’t get Robert Pattison, Chace Crawford, Shia Labeouf or Zac Efron, I’m happy.

I think they should go for Chris Pine from “Star Trek” and Seth Rogen maybe? Since “Ghostbusters” films are comedy too, Seth Rogen would be a perfect choice for a Ghostbuster to bring humor into it. Seth is not that old, he’s about 27 or something like that?

Glad that G3 is still moving forward.

Report: Jay Leno has some advice for the haters…

Leave a comment

Jay Leno admits that he gets a lot of nay sayers, aka, haters toward his “Tonight Show” that he is hosting. Jay Leno laughs off the haters, brushes them aside, and says the haters are just part of the competition.

Let me correct that to what he reallys means, the more they talk shit, the more popular you are making them.

More on it here:

http://hollywoodinsider.ew.com/2009/05/jay-leno-on-his.html

I’ve been saying this for many years in my blogs. The haters make people popular. How do you think Miley Cyrus is one of the biggest stars around? The same goes for Paris Hilton.

That is how gossip blogger, Perez Hilton, got famous for blogging because people hated on him.

I’m sure Conan O’ Brien gets his share of haters too. Look where that got him? The haters got Conan to take over for Jay very soon. So….yeah….

Thought: Could Thunderlips be Church in “Expendables”???

1 Comment

Another possible candidate for the un-announced Church role in “Expendables”, could be Hulk Hogan. The Hulk hasn’t had a movie role in a long time. Sly and Hulk could reunite again. Sly and Hulk has been buddies for years, Sly was the one who inducted Hulk into the WWE Hall of Fame, so who knows that Sly could get Hulkamania as Church as well.

Sly, Arnold, and the Hulkster all in the same scene together? WOW!

Report: Chace Crawford set to star in Paramount’s “Footloose” remake…

Leave a comment

“Gossip Girl” star Chace Crawford has signed on to star in the Paramount Pictures remake of “Footloose”. “Footloose” is a 1984 teen film that originally starred Kevin Bacon. This was the film that turned Kevin Bacon into a big name star and started to rise into fame.

Paramount’s goal with this one is they want a more mature and edgier version than the original. Filming of the “Footloose” remake is scheduled to begin in March. The film is being directed by Kenny Ortega.

Zac Efron was originally attached to star in the remake as Ren McCormack, but he turned it down due to doing “High School the Musical 3”  and the “Charlie St. Cloud” film instead.

Variety Reports:

I haven’t seen the original in a longtime but I actually like the idea of a darker and edgier version, instead of making it a tweeny film. I think Paramount is aiming for everyone to see this, not just tweens.

Will we get a Kevin Bacon cameo in the remake? It’s possible.
