Cool Photo: First look at Chris Evans as Captain America!!

Not only that Andrew Garfield’s Spiderman picture have been released, there is also another superhero character that just released a pic from the Captain America film. Here is Chris Evans as Captain America, in the “Captain America: First Avengers” movie. I’m surprised by the costume and the look. It’s fantastic! I’m totally sold to Captain America now and will definitely see it. See the photo, here.

Cool Photo: First look at Andrew Garfield as the “new” Spiderman!!!

Deadline posted an exclusive first look at Andrew Garfield in costume for the new Spiderman movie. Check it out, here. While I’m not that big on Spiderman, this new movie is looking good and I’m already interested, so I might check it out in theater after all. I like the new suit. Definitely better than the Tobey Maguire version. Andrew’s version is more realistic and not cartoonish. The way Spidey is supposed to be. Now that the pic is out, we’ll get a teaser trailer soon, I’m sure!

Why I am loyal to Sarah Palin…

Over the years in my site, you would see my constant support to Sarah Palin. She is a hero to me. Yes, I said it. A “hero”. An “inspiration”. I love her. I continue to stay loyal to her and be a supporter/fan. Why is this? Is she beautiful? Why yes of course, but there are more important reasons why she’s my hero. Here’s a couple of reasons: 1) She stays true to the constitution. If something is not constitutional in the government world, she’ll call it out. You don’t see many politicians staying true to the constitution, right? 2) She’s honest, smart, and intelligent. 3) She’s not afraid to speak her mind on things and not giving a rats ass what the public thinks of what she says. 4) She stays true to being “country first”. 5) She’s good at defending herself from the media and critics. 6) She’s a great Mom and a family woman, I think another reason people hate her is how she raises her family. She has a huge family and raises them all well. Everybody knows how great of a mother she is so the public attacks her out of jealousy.

I can keep going with the list. If she runs for President in 2012, you can betcha she’ll get my vote. She had my vote when I voted for her and McCain for the last President run, she’ll have my vote again.

I just think people are hating on her way too much when there are other important things to worry about. Why hate on her so much when everyone should be hating on the Arizona shooter, Jared Lee Loughner instead? That’s okay though, keep the Sarah Palin hate going. You’re just continuing to make her an even more powerful politician. Think about it, a while.

First look at Rooney Mara for “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo” film…

Images of Rooney Mara, in the leading role for “The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo” film by David Fincher, have been leaked to the web by W Magazine.

I’ve never read the Millennium Trilogy books by Steig Larsson, but I’m interested in reading them. Next time I go to “Barnes & Noble”, I’ll start buying these books. Keep in mind there is another version of this film, a Swedish version that stars Noomi Rapace. I haven’t seen that version either but plan to.

There is nothing anti-Semitic about Sarah Palin’s “blood libel” comment…

Once again, Sarah Palin, former governor of Alaska is under another backlash over the new video she posted in facebook today. She responded to the Tucson, Arizona shooting and defended herself from being blamed for the attacks. She was being blamed because she posted the crosshairs map on her facebook page and it had Gabrielle Giffords name on it. Sarah is being blamed of the shooting because of that.

When she posted her video today, she went and said this:

“Especially within hours of a tragedy unfolding, journalists and pundits should not manufacture a blood libel that serves only to incite the very hatred and violence they purport to condemn. That is reprehensible.”

The term “blood libel” has created an outrage by the public online. I can understand why since it has something to do with Jews and ritual murder, but I honestly think people took Sarah’s comment out of context. People are clearly not understanding of what she is trying to say.

The Harvard Law Professor, Alan Derschowitz, did a great job clearing up of what she’s trying to say beautifully, so thank you Alan.

If you don’t fully understand what, “blood libel” means, then you should keep quiet about it. She’s defending herself from all the accusations she’s getting for the shooting, can you blame her? I can’t. She is after all, a human being like all of us, and she has a family to care for. Nobody likes being accused of these things.

People also accuse her of using the word, “blood libel” incorrectly and people wished she used a better choice of words. Are you people, insane? She’s not stupid. She’s a smart, intelligent and professional woman. So of course, she knows what she’s talking about. I hate it when people online act like she don’t know what she’s talking about. She’s a politician, so of course, she knows. Everything she said in this video, she means well.

If you think about it, the things she says is correct. What she’s saying in this video, is she is blaming the media and critics, for the attacks. “Blood Libel” just might be the right word to describe it. It may be harsh but whatever it takes to get her point across, more power to her.

No matter what anyone thinks about Sarah Palin, she still gets my support. I applaud her for this video, for being open and honest. This is why I admire her so much, she can say whatever she wants, no matter what the public thinks. Like her or not, she’s a powerful political figure and an inspiration.

Why is fitness and bodybuilding so popular right now? I can think of one simple answer!

It’s a sex thing. That’s why fitness is so popular. I mean think about it. People want to look great for their sex partners. I know it’s a hard thing for people to admit, most people wouldn’t admit it. A lot of people claim they get into it to look good and healthy and to do it for sport, but you know it’s a damn lie. People want better toned up bodies to look good naked. Everyone wants to have that porn star type of body. This is the reason so many people get obsessed with fitness today.

I haven’t been going to my local gym the past month or so. I’ve just been doing workouts at home with my dumbbell set, and been doing cardio. Yes, I even do cardio in the Winter. Either ride the bike or jump rope. It’s actually fun doing cardio in the cold. It’ll warm you right up and you’ll get used to the cold. It helps get your heart racing too. I’ll start going back to the gym next week.

Report: Eva Green and Naomi Watts casted as female leads for “Dark Knight: Rises” and other rumors…

More “Dark Knight: Rises” rumors hit the web today. Eva Green and Naomi Watts might have been signed for the two female leads. Could Eva Green be Talia Al Ghul and Naomi is Vicki Vale? Who knows. There is also talk of a new Batmobile, since the original was destroyed in “The Dark Knight” and there will be a new Batcave for “Dark Knight: Rises”. Remember, Batman doesn’t have a Batcave yet.

More on it, here.

Even if Chris has been quiet on Batman news, the news seems to be leaking by itself. Come on Mr. Nolan, speak up? When are we going to hear more about Batman and Superman?
