Thought: About people suffering with cancer, not just pancreatic, any kind of cancer…

When people are suffering from cancer, not just pancreatic, but any kind of cancer, one thing you should never do is think that they are going to die. You must stay positive about the person that is suffering. I’m sure everybody’s lost loved ones of cancer, but one thing you never want to do is think that they are going to die, I’ll repeat myself. What it does is creates a negative vibe and gets everybody a little stressed.

Sure, pancreatic cancer maybe a death sentence and maybe impossible to fight, but never jump to conclusions. Miracles can happen. Even if they are going to die and if they have little time to live, you still must stay positive.

Anybody that openly says that they are going to die no matter what when a human is suffering, I probably not going to be happy about it and will call them out for being a rude prick. So when any blog readers come in here and say that Patrick is going to die, no matter what happens, why don’t you try saying that to someone else who is close to you that is suffering from Pancreatic cancer. It’s easy to say something about that at Patrick because he’s famous and a big movie star. To someone suffering the same cancer who is not famous, think how bad they will feel if you say that about Patrick.

Anybody that publicily says they’ll die, I’m certainly am not going to smile at that. This is a perfect wake up call to all smokers out there. So if you’re a heavy smoker like Patrick is, that gives you no right to tell him that he’s going to die ’cause I gauruntee you that any smoker can get this disease. I don’t smoke, never had and never will. I want to live a long life.

Smoking kills, that’s a proven fact. I honestly, don’t enjoy being around smokers too much ’cause when people are smoking near me, I’ll kind of stand a little far back from them. These kind of people suffereing from cancer, deserves to live a good and happy life while their time is here, that’s why Patrick continues to work in acting while he still has time left. So shame on those who keeps saying Patrick is going to die in a negative direction.

BREAKING NEWS: Patrick Swayze hospitalized!!!!

Is this a sign that he is near death? Actor Patrick Swayze was scheduled to appear in person with TV critics and journalists at the  TV Critics Assn.’s winter press tour in Universal City to help promote his new TV show, “The Beast” with A&E, but he didn’t show. The reason is, he checked himself into the hospital with pneumonia instead. A&E officials said they hope he gets well so he can return to work.

Report: Danny Elfman to score music for “Terminator: Salvation”…

McG just signed iconic music composer, Danny Elfman, to score for “Terminator Salvation:  The Future Begins”. Those who don’t know who Danny Elfman is, he has scored for many of Tim Burton’s flicks such as “Pee Wee’s Big Adventure”, “Edward Scissorhands”, “Batman” (w/Michael Keaton), “Batman: Returns”, etc.

Elfman says the music for “Terminator Salvation” will be different than the first three flicks. That means we won’t be hearing that classic loud drumming sound we usually hear through them, but Elfman says he will leave a door open for an apperance on that classic drumming .

From MTV News:

Very cool. Eflman’s one of my favorite movie composers and he’ll do a good job at this. He won’t dissapoint. I always thought his best musical score was the work he did with “Pee Wee’s Big Adventure”, while that’s not everyone’s favorite movie, the music is really good in it though and that’s what makes me a big fan of that film, seriously. The music of “Pee Wee’s Big Adventure” really draws people into it whether you like this Pee Wee character or not. That’s how amazing of a score composer Danny really is. The guy is a legend.

Report: “Watchmen” drama fuels up some more…

*yawn* Here’s the latest drama on this whole Warner Bros. vs. Fox feud over a superhero movie “Watchmen”. As you probably read in the news already, this battle has been moved to Federal Court.

Warner Bros. producer wrote an open letter to the public at FOX, begging them to drop the lawsuit and let them release the film as planned. Of course, typical FOX immediately responded, still vowing to fight and still aiming to destroy Warner’s movie.

More on it here:

http://www.latimes.com/business/la-fi-watchmen9-2009jan09,0,3614801.story

Warner’s wanted the Federal court to make an early decision on the project, so instead, both FOX and Warners make a settlement to delay a court hearing until Monday. FOX is still wanting Warner’s “Watchmen” to be destroyed no matter what happens and no matter what anybody says.

Variety Reports:

Like I said before, if FOX is successful and destroys Warner’s movie, I will act like Twentieth Century Fox don’t even exist to me. As I said in a blog post before: 1) Selling every DVD distributed by FOX in my collection 2) Will no longer see a FOX movie in theater even if it looks good to me 3) Will no longer report anything Twentieth Century Fox related in the blog, it all still stands to me.

FOX know they have no reason to destroy the “Watchmen” project even if they do own the distrubition rights. It’s clearly an ego thing. It’s all ego, money, and power.

Report: Travolta’s held private funeral for Jett yesterday…

The  Travolta family held a private funeral for Jett Travolta in Ocala, Florida yesterday. It was a private funeral. Fans and the public weren’t allowed to attend, it was a private funeral where only their family members and close friends were invited. Many of the Travolta’s celebrity friends came out to support them such as Lisa Marie Presley, James Gandolfini, Kirstie Alley, Garth Brooks and wife Trisha Yearwood, and Forest Whittaker were some of them. Tom Cruise did not attend, although, he expressed his emotional condolences of the tragedy on a public TV taping of “The View”.

While fans of John Travolta were not allowed to attend, they did get the opportunity to leave flowers and cards to the gaurds at the entrance of the home where the Travolta family lives.

There are no public photos of the funeral since it was private and the press wasn’t allowed in.

More on it here:

RIP, Jett. I feel so bad for John. I don’t know what I would be like if I was going through something like that if I had a family on my own one day. I wouldn’t be able to take it.

Almost done with “Dead Space”….just starting Chapter 10!!!

I finally beat Chapter 9 of the “Dead Space” game, it took me forever to beat Chapter 9 too, it wasn’t easy. Now I’m just starting Chapter 10, the game of course, gets a lot harder toward the end. You get a lot more enemies and monsters. You have low ammo from all the ammo you used for the gun from the previous chapter. That’s the point. The game wants to challenge you as a way to see if you have skill with fighting enemies. I should have this game beat this weekend hopefully. If not, then definitely next week. After I beat this game, I’ll probably move on to “Resistance 2” next.

Report: Christopher Nolan preparing to work on Batman 3???

Christopher Nolan is planning a Batman 3 and in the talks of planning a good story for it.

Check it out at MTV News:

http://moviesblog.mtv.com/2009/01/08/nolan-goyer-are-brainstorming-sequel-ideas-says-dark-knight-producer/

Great news. I’m sure sometime this year, we’ll soon get a press release if Chris is going to do a third one or not.

As for the villains…they should be the Joker, Catwoman and the Penguin. They shouldn’t bring in the Riddler just yet, not this soon.

While no one would want the Heath Ledger Joker to be replaced and he can’t be topped, yes, there is someone that can top the Heath Ledger Joker easily. Mark Hamill anyone? Mark Hamill, the Star Wars guy has been portraying the Joker in animated films for many years and he does an amazing job at it. If Hamill is willing to play a live action version of the Joker, that would be fuckin’ sweet too. I think Hamill will do a great job playing the live action Joker.

Cool Video: Triple H exposes nude photos of Vickie Guerrero…

In a controversial storyline segment on the first episode of Smackdown of the new year, Vickie Guerrero, the current Smackdown manager came to do a speech. She is the real life widow of wrestling legend, Eddie Guerrero. Triple H came out to the ring, and made fun of her. He says he was browsing the net and came across nude photos of Vickie being sold on e-bay.

The Vickie Guerrero nude photos were posted on WWE.com but were recently removed. Of course, the nude photos are censored. I’m sure the uncensored ones are somewhere online, and if anybody has them, e-mail me.
