Report: “Gears of War” live action movie on it’s way to the big screen, director found…

5 Comments

Film director Len Wiseman is confirmed to bring the very popular first person shooting game “Gears of War” to the big screen. He is also the director of “Live Free or Die Hard” (or Die Hard 4).

The story to “Gears of War” film revolves around a world being invaded by aliens, and a group of soldiers are set out to fight them off just like in the videogame.

The game “Gears of War” is only available for Xbox360, I don’t think it’s out for the Playstation 3 but I hope so soon because I’m dying to play the game myself.

Most movies adapted from videogames are pure crap, but I hope this will be a good one.

Report: Lily Allen no longer a party animal…

Leave a comment

Lily Allen just confirmed publicily she is no longer a wild party animal.

http://www.ndtvmusic.com/story.asp?id=ENTEN20080053135

She’s also made that pretty clear in her rant about Perez Hilton in her myspace blog:

http://blog.myspace.com/index.cfm?fuseaction=blog.view&friendID=36707169&blogID=405117073

Perez talked even more trash about her right on father’s day.

One question you have to ask is this…will Perez Hilton’s so called blogging career go down the drain because of his never ending trashtalking at fellow celebrities? Will Perez kill his own career because of his never ending grudges at celebs? No. That is what Perez has been made famous for to begin with. That’s what the media wants him to do and why he continues to do it. That’s how much power the man has.

While his readers are almost always making fun of the guy in his comments he never responds to any of them because that’s what Perez wants, to anger the readers. The only way to end Perez’s blogging career completely is if a celebrity wins against a slander/libel lawsuit if any celeb agrees to file one on him.

Perez bashed Lily on his blog, and all Lily did was stood up for herself. Even if people aren’t a fan of Lily’s music, the public still backed her ’cause everyone knows she didn’t deserve his cyberbullying.

One day a celeb will win a lawsuit to boycott his stupid blog to get off our nets and I just pray one day that happens. Perez Hilton is not the queen of all media, he is the douche of all media. He wants to be hated. It even says it right there in his site “Hollywood’s most hated website”. People hating on him is doing nothing but amusing him.

Report: Eva Mendes for “Bad Lieutenant” remake?

2 Comments

Actress Eva Mendes is in talks with Nu Image/Millenium films to star alongside Nicolas Cage for the “Bad Lieutenant” remake. Mendes and Cage previously starred in the “Ghost Rider” movie adapted from the Marvel comic. Would Mendes and Cage actually get a steamy sex scene in “Bad Lieutenant”? We’ll have to wait and see the movie.

Report: Kanye West booed at Bonnaroo, late on set…

Leave a comment

Kanye West was the main headliner for Bonnaroo, the final performer to close out the weekend long Festival. Kanye was scheduled to hit the stage at exactly, 2:45 a.m. in the morning. While thousands and thousands of fans waited for Kanye to show up, Kanye didn’t walk on the stage until 4:25 a.m. All of this was because it took so long to set up Kanye West’s huge stage set part of his “Glow In the Dark” tour. It required a video screen and also a weird stage setting that had problems setting up.

As time went by while Kanye wasn’t on stage, people were leaving back to their campsites because they lost all their energy and were tired for having too much fun from the earlier bands that played. When Kanye did hit the stage, he got booed heavily with getting harsh name calling from the crowd as well.

The Associated Press reports:

That is bullshit, I am a Kanye fan but he is an asshole for waiting for his own fans to wait too long for him to show up on stage. If I was the promoter for Bonnaroo, I would have cancelled his performance. It is unprofesional what Kanye did.

Report: “Angels and Demons” cast and crew banned at Rome churches…

Leave a comment

Ron Howard, Tom Hanks, Ewan McGregor, and the rest of the cast and crew filming the new “Angels and Demons” prequel has been banned from filming at the churches of Rome, it was outraged by the real life Vatican City. The cast and crew has been filming at real life historic places in Rome but they are not allowed to film at the churches there.

The reason is, in the book “The Da Vinci Code” had a story where Mary Magdalene married Jesus when in real life religious stories, Jesus was never married to Mary.

Reuters reports:

http://www.reuters.com/article/filmNews/idUSHAR66504420080616?pageNumber=1&virtualBrandChannel=0

Hmmmm, more reasons to hate religious people. Rev. Marco Fibbi shouldn’t blame Ron Howard and Tom Hanks for this, that’s bullshit. They weren’t the one that came up with the idea of Mary being married Jesus. They should blame the writer of the book that came up with that phony story, Dan Brown. How come Hanks and Howard get the blame for this? They’re just going by the script and what’s in the novel. They should ban Dan Brown from the Churches of Rome, not the film crew. Damn that Marco Fibbi FOOL!

Robert Downey Jr. will play a gunglinger named Zeke Jackson, who is set in a battle between the Apache and the Western settlers, suddenly a spaceship crashes into the prairie near Silver City, Arizona.

The Hollywood Reporter reports:

Hmmmm…it sounds like Robert is going for another huge blockbuster hit, and this sounds like a family popcorn action flick as well. I can’t blame him since after the huge success of “Iron Man”.

Have I got the feeling that Ron Howard will direct this flick too?

Report: Eminem finally working on new album

Leave a comment

Eminem has been on a long hiatus from the music business, but yep, Marshall Mathers is coming back! He’s confirmed publicily that he’s back in the studio writing brand new songs for a new record. This will be Eminem’s new material since 2004’s “Encore”. We will once again see Eminem behind the mic on a stage.

NME Reports:

http://www.nme.com/news/eminem/37393

I do enjoy listening to Eminem’s music but I wouldn’t buy any of his CD’s. I did see the guy once live in concert a long time ago, so I’m glad he’s working on music again.

The man deserves a comeback.

The Listening Room: Hear the Police perform “Message In a Bottle” at Isle of Wight…

Leave a comment

My opinion still haven’t changed on the band. The Police sucks. They aren’t good as they used to be anymore. I think the problem is that Sting’s voice is too strong and powerful, that is not the Police style. Sting didn’t sing like that back in the 80’s when he was in the band. This is a terrible performance.

The Sex Pistols seem to steal the show at Isle of Wight, Sex Pistols were great!
