BREAKING NEWS: Yoko Oh-No on a suing rampage again…

Yoko Oh-No is at it again. First she threatens to sue female rock artist Lennon Murphy for rights over her first name, now she is suing the producers that challenges the concept of the Darwinian evolution. She is accusing them of using John Lennon’s historic song “Imagine” without her permission. The name of the film that wants to use the song is titled, “Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed” which stars comedian Ben Stein who starred in a string of Red Eye commercials and hosted Comedy Central’s “Win Ben Stein’s Money”.

The complaint in the suit asks the court to stop the film from promoting, distrubiting, promoting the movie and seeks financial damages.

The Associated Press reports:

No, the way I see it, the world of blogosphere’s is not accusing her of “selling out” because of the use of the song in that film. Yoko’s always been a sellout for years.

It’s a fact that the fans of the Beatles despises this evil woman.

Yoko and J.K. Rowling would be good friends, they should drink together in a bar talking about stuff like how powerful, ego-ish, and controlling they are.

Report: “Superman: Returns” sequel in the news again…

If you read this website in this Hamilton College webpage, in it hints there will be a Superman: Returns Sequel….

“While he explained that Legendary focuses on commercial projects over independent films, he said that the company seeks to make the stories they tell “elevated” and take the source material seriously. Legendary’s roster of upcoming films includes a wide variety of properties, including Watchmen (from the renowned graphic novel), Akira (a remake of the popular Japanese anime film), a Superman sequel (in
Which Tull hopes to invoke more of the image of “an angry god”), Clash of the Titans, Where the Wild Things Are and a film of Paradise Lost (Tull is particularly interested in the “[story] arc of Lucifer”). Tull is also sponsoring the Legendary Film Treatment Challenge, an upcoming opportunity to submit film treatments to Legendary Pictures for consideration.”

Also Brandon Routh himself, did an exclusive interview with collider website that Brandon is definitely interested in playing Superman still…

See the interview here:

My god. Isn’t it amazing how Brandon looks and talks almost exactly like Christopher Reeve even when he’s not filming movies? I think that’s why Brandon got the job to play Superman in the first place.

What do they mean by turning the next Superman movie into an “angry god”. Are they hinting an intense villain other than Lex Luthor that Superman will fight against? Or will Superman get turned into a villain like he did in “Superman III”?

I’m glad Brandon is still playing the role and it’s great to see a video where he said from the mouth himself to prove that he is still playing the character, my belief just to squash the nasty rumours of him dropping out of the role.

Report: Robert Langdon sidekick found for “Angels and Demons” prequel…

An actress named Ayelet Zurer has been confirmed to play alongside Tom Hanks for the “Angels and Demons” prequel to “The Da Vinci Code”. Tom Hanks and Ron Howard are now finally back to work on “Angels and Demons” since the writers strike is officially over. She can be seen in other films such as “Vantage Point” and Steven Spielberg’s “Munich”. She is an actress from Israel.

Entertainment Weekly reports:

Glad the film is back on a roll! I enjoyed “Angels and Demons” way more than “The DaVinci Code” book. I expect “Angels and Demons” film to be at least three hours since the book is pretty thick.

Report: Stuntman gravely injured in James Bond stunt…

Making crazy action movies with crazy stunts has been dangerous these days. A stuntman getting killed in a dangerous Batmobile wreck in “The Dark Knight” is just the beggining. The James Bond “Quantum of Solace” gets even better.

The film crew of 007 “Quantum of Solace” were filming a high speed car chase scene in Italy. That was real, it is no CGI or staged crap baloney, this is 100% real car chasing, using real cars and all. It was reported that director of the film Marc Forster and leading star Daniel Craig both were NOT at the scene.

At least a few stunt men were injured, and as you saw on reports, one car went off the road and the car actually went into the lake. An experience stunt driver is in critical condition, “gravely” injured means this could be life threatening.

The Associated Press reports:

I find it amazing that these film makers are risking their lives desperately trying to make a scene exactly it is in the script no matter how dangerous the scene is.

In the past, action movies used to be made in CGI, in studio and on the stage, etc. Today is not like that anymore. Action movies these days have been doing the real thing to make it realistic.

Sly Stallone admitted in a few articles in the past that he was injured quite a bit when he was filming the new “Rambo”, most everything was done for real in “Rambo”, the only fake thing in “Rambo” was when Rambo was rolling down the hill with the explosion coming behind him, that was the only thing done in CGI, but the rest of the movie was real.

Report: Stone Temple Pilots hopes to open for Led Zeppelin…

Stone Temple Pilots spoke with MTV News revealing why they reunited. The reason why they reunited is that the band hopes to open for Led Zeppelin. If Led Zeppelin confirms a full fledged world tour in the future, STP offers Led Zeppelin to contact the guys in STP if Led Zep ever needs an opening act.

MTV.com reports:

http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1586020/20080422/stone_temple_pilots.jhtml

Who doesn’t want to open for Led Zeppelin? Anybody would, even I would.

Ever since Led Zeppelin reunited, it inspired more bands from the past to come back.

The latest band from the past to reunite recently was Janes Addiction.

Cool Video: Bill O’ Reilly trashes Miley Cyrus for revealing photos…

I hate Bill O’ Reilly but I actually agree with him in this video 100%.

Miley’s achy breaky dad Billy Ray allows her to dress like this?

I blame her boyfriend in these photos for this, he is probably the one who uploaded these photos to the internet.

Report: Trump may want the Juice but not NBC…

 

Donald Trump maybe thinking about wanting to have OJ on celebrity Apprentice but NBC say no they don’t want the Juice.

More on it here:

http://blogs.orlandosentinel.com/entertainment_tv_tvblog/2008/04/oj-simpson-will.html

I knew NBC wouldn’t. You honestly think they would after the Vegas robbery bullshit? Think how OJ’s goons that set him up for the robbery will come and attack the Donald. Anything like that can happen.

The media is doing a great thing for not having a psycho wanting to still keep his name known for a celebrity, that’s what it’s all about. Keeping OJ’s name known, OJ doesn’t care about Donald and it wasn’t about the money. It’s all about trying to promote the criminal OJ is. If that’s how OJ wants to be famous for being  a psychotic criminal, it’s hilarious how he actually think TV is going sign him for any shows.

Why are so many talented actors and musicians dying in this world, and OJ Simpson is still alive and well? If OJ doesn’t go to prison, lets hope someone out there slices his neck with a knife.

Thought: May will be a big competition for movies…

So, three huge films are coming out all in one month in May. “Iron Man, “Indiana Jones 4”, and “Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian”. I plan on seeing all three next month. At first I wasn’t interested in “Iron Man” but the more photos and trailers I’ve seen of the film, I now think it’s going to be one of the best superhero films made in a long time.

Indy 4 I’ve been dying to see ever since it was first announced. I’m such a huge Indy nut. I actually watched “Raiders of the Lost Ark” on DVD a couple of days ago and the movie still amazes me, you learn something new everytime you watch that film. I’ve seen “Raiders” over a hundred times that I’ll never get tired of that film. I plan on watching “Temple of Doom” and “The Last Crusade” this weekend.

But in Indy 4, I really think we’re definitely going to see the return of the Ark. In the previews and the pictures, we see Indy trying to fight for a boxed crate in a warehouse against the Russians. Which I’ll imagine the Ark of Covenant is inside of it. Indy 4 shall be a great film and I’m looking forward to it. Indy 4 definitely will not top “Raiders” but it will be a fun movie.

“Chronicles of Narnia: Prince Caspian”, I love the Chronicles of Narnia books by C.S. Lewis so much, I’ve read them all when I was a kid. The animated movies of these stories weren’t that great, the low budget UK versions are shit too. It is about time a live action US movie is made off these books. “The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe” is such a mind blowing film, it’s a beautiful film and it’s definitely one of my top films ever made, and “Prince Caspian” looks amazing too.

We all know these three films will make big money breaking records, which one will make the most money out of all three of them?

I am predicting “Indy 4”. “Indy 4” will steal the record out of all three. I’m sure when May 22nd comes, we’ll be seeing the lines of the movie theaters going out all the way past the food courts in the malls. This is why I plan on seeing these movies in the afternoon so I don’t have to deal with long lines in the evening hours.

But I’m really am looking forward to these three films. I haven’t been to the theaters to see a new film for a while ’cause there hasn’t been anything good playing the last couple of months, The last movie I saw in theater was “Vantage Point” I think, that was a while back. And of course, I will review “Iron Man”, “Indy 4” and “Prince Caspian” in this blog. Can’t wait to see ’em.
