Whose Side Are You On: Clash of the Titans vs. War of Gods…

There’s a controversial feud with film makers battling between the “Clash of the Titans” remake and original film “War of Gods” which are both Greek mythology films. It’s Warner Bros. vs. Relatively media, fighting over which film to start production first. Warner Bros is remaking “Clash of the Titans” which will be directed by the same man who made the new “The Incredible Hulk” movie Louis Letterier. “Clash of the Titans” is a 1981 Greek mythology fantasy film, a film about Persues on a journey to battle Medusa and the Kraken to save the Princess Andromeda.

“War Of Gods” is an original film directed by Tarsem Singh and will be made by Relatively Media. As stated above, they are at war on which Greek Mythology film to be made first. “War of Gods” plot revolves around a young warrior prince named Theseus which he forms his own army to battle against another army of demons and titans.

Both can not be made and released at the same time because they don’t want two Greek mythology films competing with each other box office wise. Warner Bros. greenlighted “Clash of the Titans” right after they hired “The Incredible Hulk” director.

What film should I think get made first? Hmmm, this may surprise some of you but I’m gonna go with “War of Gods”.

I don’t even want a “Clash Of the Titans” remake. The original 1981 film is one of my favorite films of all times, leave the original right where it is. “Clash of the Titans” remake should not be made ’cause it’s gonna suck, we all know Warner Bros. is gonna make “Clash of the Titans” remake full of CGI effects and make it a popcorn film. While I have a feeling Warner Bros. will win to get this made first because of how powerful of a company they are, I feel this is a pointless remake. It’ll turn out to be a popcorn action family film.

“War of Gods” sounds very good! Sounds like “War of Gods” won’t be a family film, it’ll be more adult oriented. Maybe “Gladiator” or “Braveheart” style with “War of Gods” if you know what I mean. I would want “War of Gods” get made first. The film is already sparking my interest while I have no interest in the “Clash of the Titans” remake.

Report: Amy Winehouse made it to Nelson Mandela concert with a short set…

After she’s been hospitalized for a few days, rumours were started by her father that she had emphysema, turns out by her reps it is not true. No one knows what is wrong with her but her body inside is in pretty bad shape due to her drug use. Anyways, the pop singer made it to Nelson Mandela concert as she said she would. She only performed a small set, singing Nelson Mandela “Happy Birthday”, then comes “Rehab”, and another song titled “Valerie”.

Report: Uma Thurman to Jack Jordan, “Sorry dude, but I would rather be in love with a rich man, surprise, I’m a golddigger!”…

Poor Jack Jordan have to be on probation while he have to suffer and read the news of Uma Thurman getting engaged to a multimillionaire, this ought to make Jack happy. Uma Thurman is now engaged to Swiss multimillionaire Arpad Busson.

She just got an expensive engagement ring that is probably worth more than an expensive car.

FOXNews reports:

http://www.foxnews.com/story/0,2933,372861,00.html

Yep, no surprise to me. She likes to attach herself to rich men,  yet this is probably the most richest guy she’s ever dated.

She won’t let Jack Jordan be her boyfriend because he’s not a wealthy person who still lives with his parents. She doesn’t like those type of people.

Report: Long Island teenagers brings Grand Theft Auto IV to real life…

A gang of six teens in Long Island, New York decided to go on a major crime spree, to impersonate Nico Belic a character from the “Grand Theft Auto IV” game. The kids decided to do the same things that Nico Belic has done in the game, everything including car jacking, beating up innocent civilians in the streets for no reason,  and even breaking into stores.

Just a bunch of bored teens hanging at New Hyde Park in Long Island decided to bring Grand Theft Auto IV into town. It took police at least two hours to catch all the teens.

The New York Post reports:

http://www.nypost.com/seven/06262008/news/regionalnews/video_villains_come_to_life_117336.htm

Come on kids, I’ve said once before and will say it again! DON’T TRY THIS AT HOME! It’s only a game! Just because you can successfully escape from cops in the videogame, does not mean you can do it in real life. That’s why the kids do it in real life to see if they can try to escape police in real life just like in the videogame. Now those kids who just did this are looking at a 20 year prison sentence. Don’t ruin your life over a videogame.

Report: Hugh Hefner suffering major back pains from too much bed rustling…

An 82 year old Hugh Hefner who lives at the Playboy mansion with three different girlfriends (or god knows how many more girlfriends he has) admits to suffering back pains from too much “bed rustling”. He admits that fooling around with Playboy playmates at the mansion has been causing him back pains.

He also admits that his close family members were against him and wasn’t liking Hugh’s idea when he started the Playboy empire at first. But he went ahead with the Playboy empire anyway because it was his dream to own his own mansion where he could get any hot woman he wanted in the bedroom with him.

More on it here:

http://www.stuff.co.nz/stuff/4598088a1860.html

Man, I sure would love to live Hugh Hefner’s lifestyle, I feel him and sounds like the man is living a good life and having so much fun getting all the sexy and beautiful women he wants.

He seems like a good dude that loves what he does. More power to him.

Maybe I should open up my own porn magazine so I can get all the women I want.

Report: Robert Rodriguez and Rose McGowan in for “Red Sonja” remake…

Robert Rodriguez had been confirmed to direct and actress Rose McGowan has been confirmed to star the leading character in the upcoming remake of “Red Sonja”. “Red Sonja” is the remake of a 1985 fantasy film that starred Brigitte Nielsen and Arnold Schwarzenegger. Rose McGowan herself was the one that wanted the film made because she loved the script too much that she handed it over to her longtime husband Robert Rodriguez. The film makers plan to get it released sometime in 2010.

USA Today reports:

http://www.usatoday.com/life/movies/news/2008-06-26-red-sonja-rodriguez-mcgowan_N.htm

I wonder who will get the role of Arnold’s character Kalidor? Could it even be Arnold himself? Will Arnold reprise that character again? Who knows, Arnold maybe done being governor by the time filming starts production so it could be possible that Rodriguez would want him.

The Life and Career of Angelina Jolie…

So you may ask…how does she do it? How did Angelina Jolie go from a wild crazy and sexual chick back in her younger years to a big superstar mom? Is her relationship with Brad Pitt responsible for making her a big superstar? WRONG!

Angelina Jolie has always been a huge superstar in entertainment media way before she started dating Brad Pitt. Before “Lara Croft: Tomb Raider” as pictured above, she wasn’t that well known. Before “Tomb Raider” she was doing all kinds of low budget films that no one even know about. Films like “Gia”, “Foxfire”, “Hackers”, “Pushing Tin”, etc. She started becoming a big name when she landed a role in “The Bone Collector” and “Girl Interupted”. But when she signed on to do “Lara Croft: Tomb Raider” the whole world knows her now.

Brad Pitt is not responsible for her fame. She did it on her own without the help of anyone. She didn’t care if a movie she does bombs or if it’s a hit, she’s doing it for the love of acting. It was her father Jon Voight that got her started in acting, she had her first role as a child when she starred alongside Jon Voight in her debut of a film titled “Looking To Get Out”. She’s just like Drew Barrymore. Angelina has been acting in films ever since she was a little girl just like Drew.

Angelina had a long marriage with fellow actor/musician Billy Bob Thornton, during her relationship with him, she was still the wild crazy and sexual woman. But now she’s with Brad Pitt, Angelina quickly changed into this supernice and friendly mother instead of this wild person she used to be.

The truth is, she never changed. She always had been herself from day 1. She always had been a world traveler and always been a crazy and sexual person. The media had always tried to make a big story out of her because she is the daughter of legenary actor Jon Voight. So to say that Brad Pitt helped her become a different person is pretty laughable. She’s a powerful woman because she’s one of the most sexiest actresses in Hollywood today. She’s a talented actress that can play anything that throws at her.

I’m looking forward to seeing “Wanted”, I’ll be seeing that one too of course. Glad she’s finally got an action movie role. Hopefully she’ll still be on for “Tomb Raider 3” if they ever plan to do a third one.
