Report: Drew Peterson’s fiance leaves him after her father orders her to do so…

Christina Raines who was just engaged to Drew Peterson, has left him, after her father, Ernie Raines demanded her to leave him. Ernie travelled to Bollingbrook, Ill…Drew’s hometown where the couple were currently living, Ernie ordered his daughter to leave Drew.

Ernie tried to warn her daughter before that Drew could possibly be very dangerous and he doesn’t want to see her being gone, similar to what happened to Stacy Peterson. Drew is already being controlling and abusive to Christina.

Christina was escorted by several police cars, Christina and Drew has broken off the engagement.

Kudos to Ernie for doing a good thing. She was pretty fuckin’ stupid to accept Drew’s marriage proposal in the first place. I hope the Bollingbrook police will lock Drew’s ass up behind bars fast, so he wouldn’t hurt any more women. I’m sick of that guy.

Thought: I think Jessica Simpson is looking gorgeous and sexy!!

Man, just look at that. Would you sleep with that? I’d hit it! That is Jessica Simpson. People picking on her because of her weight gain. Just like the stupid media is picking on Oprah’s weight gain. Women shouldn’t feel bad about their weight, when they should feel proud of who they are.

I’m no fan of Jessica Simpson’s music, but I think Jessica is looking beautiful. She looks more natural now than the other pop stars. Maybe that’s why the media is picking on her because she doesn’t look fake and plastic like Britney Spears, Taylor Swift, etc. Jessica is looking real.

I actually find women much sexier who have a little bit of weight on them. Those are the type of chicks, I’m attracted to mostly though. They gotta have the lovin’ too, right?

Well, it’s good that Bruce is an honest man. This shows that the boss isn’t ego driven at all.

Speaking of Bruce, I picked up the “Working On a Dream” CD today, I’ll post a short review after I listen to it a few times.

Thought: Believe it or not, “Friday the 13th” remake looks amazing and am looking forward to it!!!

Before seeing the movie “Taken”, I’ve seen the new “Friday the 13th” trailer, and the new “Friday the 13th” remake, looks absolutely amazing and breathtaking. I feel the remake is going to be better than the original series!!! Most horror film remakes are trash except the only really good horror remakes are “Dawn of the Dead”, “The Ring”, “Texas Chainsaw” and Rob Zombie’s “Halloween”.

I will indeed see “Friday the 13th” remake in theater and I’m sure that film will be quite a thrill ride, it won’t dissapoint.

Film Review: Taken

 

Starring: Liam Neeson, Famke Janssen

Directed by: Pierre Moral

So I just got back from seeing the movie “Taken” this afternoon and here is my review.

Plot/synopsis: Liam Neeson stars as a single father and divorced man named Bryan Mills, he is also a retired government operative. The movie begins as a happy family film where Bryan goes to his daughter’s Kim’s birthday party to celebrate her 17th birthday. She wanted to become a famous singer which is her dream, so Bryan does his best to help make her dream come true by getting help from a famous pop star who Bryan becomes friends with.

Kim and Bryan’s ex-wife reveals to him that Kim wants to take a vacation to Paris, France. Bryan later learns that Kim is not just going to Paris, she is travelling all over Europe so she can follow the European tour of her favorite band U2. When Bryan finally allows her to go to Paris, Kim is kidnapped by gangsters as soon as she arrives there.

This angers Bryan so much that he can’t help himself but go out and find his daughter himself and kill the men who took her. Bryan is all about revenge in this movie.

Jason Bourne. James Bond. MOVE OVER!!!! We have a new action hero on the way. He is Liam Neeson. You love movies with intense violence and non stop action all the way through? Go see this! This movie will seriously kick your ass!!! Liam Neeson is not much of an action movie man because he mostly done dramas and serious films over the years. Liam is fuckin’ bad ass in this film!!

Lots of brutal fist fight scenes and incredible car chases that will take you at the edge of your seat the entire time!!! Liam’s acting in this film is so awesome in this film. I wish the film could be longer. I felt the film went by too quick and was a short movie, 90 minutes full of violence and thrills.

The writing was good, cinematography was good, scoring of the music was good, stunts were good, etc. Just a great movie all around. I think it’s one of the best new action movies in a long time. Honestly though, I can definitely see Sly Stallone starring in a movie like this, it would have been a perfect film for Sly. Liam still did a great job though.

Go see this, if you like edge of your seat action flicks, this film will send chills down your spine, trust me!!!

Score for “Taken” = **** (4 stars as in “Excellent”)

Report: Sir Paul to headline Coachella 2009!!!

Sir Paul McCartney is confirmed to headline Coachella 2009. Also on the bill are the Cure, the Killers, My Bloody Valentine, Amy Winehouse, Morrisey, Leonard Cohen and the Yeah Yeah Yeahs.

The Coachella Fest will be held on April 17-19 at the Empire Polo Field in Indio, California.

Billboard reports:

Wow!!!! What a killer lineup!! Better than last years!!! Sir Paul will probably perform a bunch of Beatles songs and his solo stuff. Hope Amy Winehouse is clean enough to perform so she won’t suck, I have a feeling she will, that woman needs to stop performing. I wonder why the Coachella booking agents would want to book a drug addict to the Festival anyways when fans will probably boo her off the stage.

Seeing Leonard Cohen’s gotta be amazing. Cool show, wish I could be there.

Report: Vince McMahon responds to reports about Mickey dropping out of Wrestlemania, Vinnie Mac says actor will still be there?

Vince McMahon, chairman of the WWE, immediately responded to reports about Mickey Rourke dropping out of Wrestlemania. Vinnie Mac denies Rourke dropping out and will still be there. However, Vince refuses to say how he would be there. Whether Rourke will be competing, fighting, wrestling, or having any physical contact with Jericho.

More on it here:

I am now thinking that Rourke announcing the drop out is part of this storyline, like I said before, trying to make it realistic. That way Jericho can go on RAW calling Mickey a coward publicly, and Jericho will end up doing whatever it takes to get him to fight Jericho at WM-25.

I think Rourke vs. Jericho at WM-25 will happen. Keep in mind that this isn’t the first time they tried to make storylines realistic. Remember the Trump vs. McMahon fued? That was pretty realistic. Stone Cold feuding with Mike Tyson in the earlier days, they kept that realistic too. Also, boxer Floyd Mayweather feuding with the Big Show. Don’t forget William Shatner kicking Jerry Lawler’s ass and Bam Bam Bigelow having a match with football legend Lawrence Taylor.

When WWE stars are feuding with other celebrities, they like to try to keep the storyline realistic as possible to hype up Wrestlemania, so don’t take everything WWE does seriously. Rourke announcing the dropout could be scripted.

Report: Stallone buys Italian restaurant in Hollywood…Charlie Sheen and Danny Devito joins him for dinner there…

Sylvester Stallone is now the owner of the Buca di Beppo restaurant in Hollywood. The restaurant is located at the Universal Citiwalk in Los Angeles. Why did he buy the restaurant? Simply to keep his wife Jennifer Flavin out of the kitchen!!! (he’s joking)

Seriously though, I think the real reason he bought the restaurant is not just for the money alone, I think it’s so he can keep his Rocky Balboa lifestyle in real life. Last Wednesday night at the restaurant, actors Charlie Sheen and Danny Devito joined Sly for dinner to celebrate his purchase.

Now this is a perfect opportunity for fans to meet Sly. If you’re in Cali, eat there at the restaurant and never know Sly could walk in anytime!! Charlie and Danny to be casted in “The Expendables”? Who knows!!!

Report: Stallone confirms he’s planning to make Rambo 5, he also praises Mickey Rourke…

After several months of rumours and speculation whether or not Stallone is going to do a 5th installment to the Rambo series, Sly says, “Yes”. Only problem is, he can’t decide whether to do it in the United States or a different country.

Sly also praises Mickey Rourke for his success in the movie business. Some of you may know that Sly already did a movie with Mickey in “Get Carter”. Mickey next stars in “The Expendables” with Sly, they plan to start shooting this Spring.

I will see the movie “Taken” next…

I will see the action thriller “Taken” that stars Liam Neeson, a film about a former government operative who goes out to find his kidnapped daughter himself and seek revenge on her kidnapper. It looks like a pretty sweet flick, very short movie, it’s only an hour and a half long but I’m sure the flick will be entertaining. I like Liam Neeson and this guy don’t star in leading roles that much. I plan to see this movie tomorrow afternoon and will review it tomorrow evening. I hope it’s good and doesn’t dissapoint.
