I'm a musician, singer/songwriter, blogger, writer, poet, bodybuilder, movie lover, music lover, video gamer, history/political buff, conservative/republican, etc. I like to do a lot of things.

You’re never too old to go back to school…

If you’re sick and tired of working shitty and crappy minimum waged jobs, go back to school and get a college education for a better career! That’s what I’m doing this fall. I think the college thing is definitely happening and I’m going to Acc College pretty soon to sign up and get registered.

I’m still aiming to take a writing/English course. I’ve taken fictional story writing seriously again and to hopefully become a profesional author in the future. My dream has always been to publish my own novel to bookstores, that was my first dream before music.

I don’t think I’m ever gonna “make it” in the music business, but I would like to “make it” in the book writing industry. I could be like Stephen King, Dean Koontz, Dan Brown, John Grisham and all those greats. I got good grades in English in High School, and I used to read aloud my short stories in English class all the time. Back in my high school years, I’ve written mostly vampire stories and serial killer stories. I’m a huge fan of vampires, I like reading vampire novels and watching vampire flicks. It is unique storytelling and insightful.

I will be taking more than one courses other than writing which is what I’m definitely taking, possibly a computer course or a business course, don’t know yet. But I will decide soon.

Life is short, you don’t want to live your life working shitty jobs. Make a good career of yourself so you can live something huge before you get too old. Looking forward to college this year.

Report: Robocop 4 coming? It’s no remake…

Rumours been going strong for a long while that a “Robocop” remake is in the works. Turns out, it’s not true. Film director Darren Aronofsky, confirmed it’s actually another sequel to add another film to the Robocop trilogy. Does this actually mean a “Robocop 4” is coming?

This is pretty sweet news. I’m glad it’s not a remake and it’s actually another sequel!

Since Indiana Jones and Rambo returns were such a hit, why not bring back Peter Weller as Robocop? That be fuckin’ sweet!

Report: “The Monster Squad” is getting a remake?

Yep, you heard that right, the 1987 movie about a group of kids forming a club to kill monsters, a film titled “The Monster Squad” is getting a remake. Paramount Pictures just required the rights to get it remade. Film director Rob Cohen really wants this remake to happen, he may or may not direct the remake, but he is definitely on board for producing it.

Bloody Disgusting reports:

Yep, another pointless remake that doesn’t need one.

Man, seems like all the great horror movies from the past are getting remade and I want it all to STOP! STOP! STOP!

“The Monster Squad” is fine the way it is and does not need an updated version. I love the film, I remember seeing it in the drive-in theater when it first came when I was a kid.

BREAKING NEWS: William Peterson quits “CSI”…

William Peterson the actor who plays the iconic character, Gil Grissom is leaving the longtime hit TV show “CSI”. He had played in the show since it’s debut episode way back in the year 2000 when the show first started. The show is still going strong for 8 seasons. Peterson says he wants to move on to try other things in his acting career. This isn’t the first time that CSI lost cast members, not too long ago, the show lost Gary Dourdan and Jorja Fox. Peterson will still work for the show, however, he won’t act much, he’ll remain as executive producer. He’ll only appear in a few episodes occasionally.

My thoughts?

Simply put, good for him! He’s an excellent actor. It’s about time for him to move on and hopefully do some hollywood movies in leading roles. Maybe that’s why he wants to leave, he wants to get movie roles. I hope he does play a leading role in a film sometime down the road.

Report: Diablo Cody and Steven Spielberg to team up again…

The Oscar award winning screenwriter whose latest film is “Juno” will team up with Steven Spielberg again to give her story ideas for another comedy film that is untitled at this moment. Spielberg is the one who came up with the story for “Juno” and gave it to Cody, she won an Oscar for “Best Screenplay” for the film. She will write the film for Spielberg’s, Dreamworks studios, but they are keeping the plot and title underwraps for now.

Variety reports:

Is this going to be a sequel to “Juno”? I hope not. I have never even seen “Juno” yet, but I plan on giving the film a rent soon.

If Spielberg loves her writing so much, why don’t he direct one of her screenplays? I’m sure he will in the future when the right story comes. Spielberg is not into doing comedies, maybe when Cody does a serious film, Spielberg will do it then.
