Lets hope Ridley does a great job with this flick. I think “Robin Hood: Prince Of Thieves” with Kevin Costner is an amazing flick. I love it to death, so hopefully Ridley’s version will be just as good as that one.
Ridley Scott is a great film maker, he’s made many fantastic films.
My top 5 favorite Ridley Scott directed films are here:
1. American Gangster
2. Alien
3. Blade Runner
4. Legend (Tom Cruise/Tim Curry fairytale adventure)
5. Thelma and Louise

Thoughts and prayers goes out to Jade Goody…
This story is so sad. My thoughts and prayers goes out to her, and her family and friends. Heartbreaking story.
As you all know. Jade doesn’t have much time left to live. She’s the former Big Brother contestant who is suffering from cancer.
More on it here:
People like Noel Gallagher of Oasis, maybe tired of this story, but fuck the negative people. She’s a human being whose about to die soon, she could even die today possibly. Anybody who doesn’t have compassion for this woman, I hope you get stricken with cancer, lets see if you feel bad for this poor woman then. A young woman who doesn’t deserve to die this soon. Cancer sucks.

Report: Behind the scenes of the Triple H invades Randy Orton’s home segment on RAW last night…
- The house that Triple H and Randy Orton filming in wasn’t really Randy Orton’s home. It was a house WWE rented in Florida just to film that one segment.
- Randy Orton isn’t really married to that woman seen in that segment, the woman that played Randy Orton’s wife is actually a former Playboy model, Laura Croft. On Raw, Randy said he was married to that woman, named Samantha, which was played by Laura. In real life, Randy Orton is actually married to a woman named, Samantha Speno but looks like the actual Samantha didn’t want to act on TV.

Report: Billy Corgan fighting to get paid by radiostations that play Smashing Pumpkins music…
Smashing Pumpkins, frontman, Billy Corgan is in court, testifying on Capitol Hill on the House Judiciary Committee. Lobbying for rights that artists should get paid when their songs are being played on the radio. You can see a picture of Billy in court in this article, he doesn’t look too happy either.

I agree that music artists should get paid when their stuff is being used whether it be for TV or radio, whatever. It’s their work. They work hard for it. They deserve to be respected back.
It’s not about being obsessed with money, it’s about respecting the hard work they do in their music.
I hope the musicians win this battle. They deserve to get paid when their music is played on radio.

Report: Krist Novoselic announces, no more unreleased Nirvana music…
Krist Novoselic, the former Nirvana bassist, announced the shocking news, that he and Dave Grohl will no longer release unreleased Nirvana songs. The song “You Know You’re Right”, will be the final unreleased track. Of course, we’re all sure the band wrote tons of songs that they didn’t release for their albums, they will only be kept for themselves, not for the public.
Courtney Love have been feuding with Krist and Dave for years over the rights of releasing Nirvana songs. Krist reveals that the surviving members of Nirvana has buried the hatchet with Courtney Love and now in good terms with her.
Krist discussed more of Nirvana’s history with the Legacy Project.
More on it here:
That’s a good thing the band is doing. Keeping the band’s legacy to themselves and keeping Cobain’s wishes is a pretty smart thing to do. I actually don’t like it when the music industry releases unreleased tracks of dead musicians. Like Jimi Hendrix or Bob Marley for example, they shouldn’t release their unreleased material. Keep them hidden and kept secret. Don’t ruin their legacy.

Cool Video: Triple H and Randy Orton recreates Stone Cold vs. Brian Pillman segment on RAW last night…
As a way to celebrate 25 years of Wrestlemania, the WWE decided to remake a classic segment that was originally done by Stone Cold Steve Austin and Brian Pillman.
Remember the Stone Cold vs. Brian Pillman feud years back? Where they had Brian Pillman and his wife interviewed at his home, then they get attacked by Stone Cold? Well that segment was remade into a Triple H and Randy Orton version from last night’s RAW. Very cool homage to the late Brian Pillman! Great work WWE! 🙂

Cool Video: Neil Young premieres “Johnny Magic” official video…new song…
Neil Young premiere’s a new single off his new upcoming album, “Fork in the Road”. The name of the new single, “Johnny Magic”, the video is exclusively at yahoo music.
The video is nothing much, it’s just Neil Young driving a car, and singing along to the song on the radio. Neil finally decides to take a break from politics and write songs about other things for once. Neil maybe getting old, but he’s still a fuckin’ badass and a killer songwriter! Great video and great song Neil! It’s nice to see Neil have a sense of humor! Comedy in this video, indeed!
