“The Wrestler” is one of the best sports movies ever made, just as good as the first “Rocky”!!!

Leave a comment

As some of you know, I’m a long time die hard profesional wrestling fanatic. I love the sports entertainment stuff to death. I just got done watching, “The Wrestler” finally, and yes, you betcha, I fucking LOVED the movie! Amazing! Jaw dropping!

Darren Aronofsky, definitely knows his shit with the wrestling business. After watching this film, now I can understand why Vince McMahon didn’t like the film that much because Darren exposed the world what profesional wrestling is really all about. It proved that wrestling is fake, and showed the world what it’s like with wrestlers, steroids, and drugs.

Mickey Rourke is some of the best acting, I’ve ever seen in the flick, he was just as good as Sylvester Stallone in the first, “Rocky”. “The Wrestler” is definitely the “Rocky” of this generation.

“The Wrestler” immediately headed up to one of my top 5 favorite films ever made. Ya know, that public feud with Chris Jericho vs. Mickey Rourke for Wrestlemania, try to understand that they aren’t enemies in real life. I’m pretty sure that Jericho and Rourke are great friends behind the scenes, they acted like enemies as part of a wrestling storyline. So in reality, Jericho doesn’t hate Mickey Rourke and all the wrestling legends, Jericho loves and respects them all, of course. Everything about wrestling you see on TV is scripted and storyline stuff.

I have recognized a WWE wrestler that made a cameo in the movie, and his name is Ron Killings, who now wrestles under the name of R-truth on the Smackdown roster. Ron Killings also used to be the Truth in TNA and K-Kwik.

This was a brilliant movie and pretty realistic too. Even if you’re not a fan of profesional wrestling, I would suggest all to watch this. You would understand why we love it so much.

I just love profesional wrestling and I understand why it’s not for everybody but the wrestling business deserves the respect ’cause they work hard to entertain us and put smiles on their faces. This movie gives you an idea of what it’s like being a profesional wrestler.

I feel bad that Mickey Rourke was robbed of the Oscar. This movie will be talked about for years. Will there be a sequel to this movie ’cause the ending kind of left open for another film? I think this will be a continuing series just like Rocky.

Brock is asking the Capital District a favor, Angelina’s “Salt” in Albany related…

Leave a comment

For those that live in Albany and has taken pictures of the film locations on the Highway roads of Albany…or if Angelina Jolie actually did come to Albany and if you shot pictures of her in town, e-mail them to me at:

And I’ll post ’em right up here in this blog. I’d like to be the first to grab hold of those pics before other movie sites pick ’em up.

Thanks if you could do this.

Report: Angelina Jolie to come to Albany to film “Salt”?

Leave a comment

I guess Angelina’s character is scripted for Albany, N.Y. after all.

This article says on the first day of shooting of “Salt” in Albany, Angelina was not there that day, they were using stunt double Angelina look alikes to play her character instead.

See this article here:

http://www.theinsider.com/news/2079525_Angelina_Jolie_and_Salt_Filming_Albany_New_York_Latest_News

So this means, that the real Angelina herself may come to Albany to film her scenes there. She’s in New York City right now, and it’s not a long drive to Albany from New York.

If she does come to Albany, does this mean Brad Pitt will come along with her too? How do you like that? The biggest couple in America in the Capital District? We can only cross our fingers. 🙂

Report: Robert Rodriguez is writing and directing, “Predators”…also Arnold returning as Dutch might be a possibility…

Leave a comment

AICN spoke with Robert Rodriguez himself in an exclusive interview. Rodriguez just denied the rumours that he isn’t writing and directing, confirmed that he is. He says he plans to make the new “Predators” similar to the first one.

Is Rodriguez saving this movie until Arny is through with being governor? Could Arny come back as Dutch in the next one? If so, that would be fucking cool! Rodriguez says he’ll see what happens to get Arny back, so never say never! 🙂

I also think it would be cool if Danny Glover will return too. Wouldn’t it be badass to see Dutch and Lt. Mike Harrigan to team up? Hell yeah, I loved both “Predator” films.

It’s been a long while for the all female music festival “Lilith Fair” to return, that is finally happening in 2010.

More on it here:

Great news!!!

Artists I predict that will get booked at the 2010 festival: Sarah McLachlan (of course), Jewel, Ani Difranco, Taylor Swift (most definitely), Katy Perry (possibly), Susan Boyle, Miley Cyrus, Bonnie Raitt, M.I.A., Sheryl Crow, and of course, the female artists that already played the past “Lilith Fair” will probably return to the next one.

I love the Lilith Fair, I own the CD pictured above in my album collection.

Cool Video: Rob Zombie’s “H2” teaser trailer is already online, OMG, the movie looks incredible!!!

Leave a comment

Rob Zombie’s “H2” trailer is online already. Keep in mind, that this is a totally original film, it’s not a remake of “Halloween II”. In “H2” it has the similar plot idea where Laurie Strode is at a hospital and all that, but it’s all 100% Rob Zombie’s vision.

My jaw dropped seeing this trailer. It looks better than the first, and I’m already looking forward to seeing it in Aug. Fuck yeah, this looks like to be a fun flick!

Thought: About Rodriguez’s “Predators” reboot, could Rose McGowan land the leading role?

Leave a comment

I’ve been thinking about Robert Rodriguez’s reboot of “Predators” that’s just been announced. I’m sure everyone is wanting a big mean tough guy to land the leading role, but I think this is going to get a female lead. Don’t be surprised if Rose McGowan, (who is Rodriguez’s real life girlfriend) to land the leading role in “Predators”, the female star could battle these alien creatures herself.

After all, “Alien vs. Predator 1 and 2” both have a female lead and this new “Predators” will probably get the same thing.

Don’t immediately assume that Rodriguez will sign a tough male actor for this one ’cause I’m pretty sure he’s got Rose McGowan in mind. I’m betting your money that McGowan will get this.

Kev

Edit to add: On a side note, I just learned after I posted this that Robert Rodriguez is NOT directing and NOT writing the script, he’s only producing. Still though, Rodriguez could reccomend the film crew to get Rose McGowan as the female lead, just like he did with the “Red Sonja” remake.

See the article on it here:

Stallone news

Report: Stallone ends filming in Brazil…

Leave a comment

According to the Expendables blog, they just reported that the cast and crew, packed it up and left on the airplane. They finished with the Brazillian scenes already.

http://ethelmae.wordpress.com/

The blog also said that the cast and crew will take a few weeks hiatus, then they will film some more in New Orleans in the United States so Mickey Rourke, Dolph Lundgren, Charisma Carpenter, etc. can film their scenes.

And after the scenes in New Orleans, they go to Cali to film Arny’s cameo.

I’m sure we’ll get some pics surfacing the net of the cast at the Brazillian airport sooner or later.

Celebrity news

Thought: Perez Hilton, a hero of all media?

Leave a comment

You can either love the man, or hate him, either way, you gotta give this dude the respect he deserves. I used to bash him in the blog, but I don’t think I’m going to do that anymore. I’ll tell you why.

Ever since the Miss California vs. Perez Hilton fued on the “Miss USA Pageant” finale, it’s a proven fact that Perez turned this gay marriage into a hot discussion everywhere you see and everywhere you go.

I’ve been paying attention to this feud ever since it first started and it’s pretty interesting stuff. Perez is actually winning this thing. I’m beggining to agree with him that Carrie Prejean is the offensive one, not Perez. Perez just called her out on his blog, and now the media is shitting on her, not him.

I don’t agree with gay marriage either, but there are better ways of saying it. That’s all Perez is trying to tell everyone. I’ll say it again, it’s not what you say, it’s how you say it. To those that think that Perez is trying to force his opinion on her, just goes to show that we don’t have very smart people in the United States who don’t understand a thing what Perez is trying to do.

I think Perez is doing a great job in these debates on TV. Maybe he is actually smart and intelligent after all. I’ve been watching Perez’s TV interviews like on Larry King and so far I’ve been pretty impressed with him.

He’s always been the type of celebrity blogger that calls out celebrities gone bad and his feud with Carrie Prejean got everyone talking about it. He’s quite an interesting dude to say the least. He maybe a bit crazy, yes, he maybe a bit delusional but hey if that’s what it takes to make him famous for blogging, more power to him.

You wonder what Donald Trump would have to say about all of this since Trump owns the Pageant. You wonder who’s side Trump is on, Prejean or Perez. I’m sure Trump himself will speak about this soon to give his opinion on this. Would Trump hire Perez back for the judge for next year? I would think Trump is on Perez’s side and definitely would hire him back, since Trump would think this is good promotion for the USA Pageant.

You can like or hate the Perez Hilton blog, Perez is a hero for this. Period.
